Do Not Track

Introduction
Put user privacy first with "System - Do Not Track," a powerful Joomla plugin that respects the Do Not Track (DNT) browser setting by dynamically managing access levels. This tool detects whether a visitor has enabled DNT and automatically adds or removes a Joomla Access Level, allowing you to control which components, modules, or plugins (like those setting tracking cookies) are accessible based on their privacy preferences.
How It Works
This isn’t a plug-and-play solution—it requires thoughtful planning and configuration to maximize its potential. As an administrator, you’ll create an Opt-In group and access level, then assign it within the plugin settings. Here’s the process:
- When a user arrives with Do Not Track turned off, the plugin adds the specified access level, enabling any assigned components, modules, or plugins (e.g., those with tracking cookies) to run.
- When a user enables DNT, the access level is removed, blocking those elements and ensuring privacy compliance.
