Anonymize Comment IP Addresses After 60 Days
Once a day, shortens the stored IP address of approved comments older than 60 days, so you keep recent IPs for spam handling without holding personal data forever.

Privacy & Cookies snippets for WordPress
Snippets for privacy and cookies: load tracking only after consent, remove IP addresses, tidy personal data and add privacy notices. For site owners working toward GDPR and similar privacy rules.
Anonymize the Comments of Deleted Users
When a user account is deleted, keeps their comments but replaces the name with "Former member" and removes the email address, website and IP address stored with them.
Consent Record Log With Shortened IP Addresses
Records each cookie consent choice (accepted or rejected, categories, date and privacy policy version) in its own database table, with only a shortened IP address, and lists the latest records under Tools > Consent Log.
Delete Comments Left Unmoderated for 90 Days
Once a day, permanently deletes comments that have been waiting in the moderation queue for more than 90 days, along with the names, emails and IP addresses they contain.
Delete Spam Comments Older Than 30 Days
Permanently removes comments marked as spam once they are older than 30 days, so spammers' names, emails and IP addresses do not pile up in your database.
Don't Keep Full IP Addresses in Login Sessions
Shortens the IP address and drops the browser details WordPress stores with every login session, so session records no longer hold full personal data.
Don't Send Guest Commenters' Emails to Gravatar
Shows a built-in placeholder avatar for comments from visitors without an account, so their hashed email address is never sent to Gravatar, while registered users keep their Gravatar picture.
Hide Commenter Email Addresses From Authors and Contributors
Hides commenters' email addresses in the comment lists of the dashboard for users who are not moderators, so authors can reply to comments without seeing readers' personal email addresses.
Hide Commenter IP Addresses From Non-Administrators
Hides commenters' IP addresses in the Comments screens for editors, moderators and authors, so only administrators can see this personal data.
Remove Completed Privacy Requests After 90 Days
Deletes finished export and erasure requests (and failed ones) from Tools > Export/Erase Personal Data once they are 90 days old, since the request records themselves contain email addresses.
Remove IP Addresses From Comment Notification Emails
Strips commenters' IP addresses and host names from the new comment and moderation emails WordPress sends to authors and administrators, so personal data does not pile up in inboxes.
Site Health Checks for Privacy Settings
Adds Site Health tests that check whether a privacy policy page is published, whether full commenter IP addresses are being stored, and whether the comment cookie consent checkbox is turned on.
Store Only Shortened IP Addresses for Comments
Saves commenters' IP addresses with the last part removed (for example 203.0.113.0), which is still enough for spam checks but no longer identifies a person.
Store Shortened IP Addresses and No Browser Details on Orders
Shortens the customer IP address saved with each new WooCommerce order and removes the stored browser user agent, keeping order records leaner on personal data.
Store Shortened IP Addresses for Contact Form 7 Submissions
Shortens the visitor IP address that Contact Form 7 records with each submission (used in mail tags and by Flamingo and spam filters), so a full address is never kept.
Store Shortened IP Addresses for Easy Digital Downloads Orders
Shortens the customer IP address that Easy Digital Downloads records with orders and customer logs, so a full address is never stored.
Turn Off WooCommerce Customer Geolocation
Stops WooCommerce from looking up each visitor's location from their IP address and uses your store's base country as the default customer location instead.
