System - Global Privacy Control

Honor user privacy signals in Joomla with the System - Global Privacy Control plugin. This free tool detects GPC browser headers (e.g., from Firefox or Brave) and dynamically adjusts access levels to disable tracking components, modules, or plugins—ensuring opt-out compliance without user interaction. Features include automatic signal checks, integration with EU e-Privacy Directive, and flexible group-based config. Ideal for CCPA/GDPR-aligned sites.
