The day has arrived! We’re proud to announce that LearnPress WordPress LMS is now fully GDPR-compliant. Download or update to the latest version of LearnPress to ensure your online course site meets GDPR requirements.
Achieving Full GDPR Compliance
WordPress’s recent update to version 4.9.6 introduced two powerful tools, “Export Personal Data” and “Erase Personal Data,” designed to facilitate GDPR compliance. To simplify this process for both website owners and our diverse LearnPress user base, we’ve seamlessly integrated our platform with these tools.
Now, when users request to export or erase their personal data, their LearnPress information will be included automatically. This eliminates the need for multiple requests or navigating different sections of a WordPress website.
Our goal is to deliver a one-click, effortless experience, consistent with our commitment to providing user-friendly products.
What’s next?
LearnPress is now fully aligned with GDPR requirements. Should a user residing in the European Union exercise their right to data access or erasure:
- Guide the user: Kindly request that they initiate the process by sending an email to [your email address] or using the provided contact form.
- Authentication: Upon receiving a request, confirm the user’s account ownership and residency within the European Union.
- Data Management: Utilize the “Export User Data” function within the WordPress dashboard to compile a user’s data or remove it as requested.
After the user clicks the email link, you’ll see a confirmation in your WordPress dashboard. You can then:
- Download the file: Manually send it to the user.
- Send Email: Let WordPress email the file automatically.
Data removal follows the same WordPress process. Exported files include:
- Your course data (created/purchased courses, completed lessons/quizzes)
- Personal information
- Orders
- Other WordPress-related data
See this image for an example of LearnPress exported data.
With LearnPress now GDPR compliant, it ensures that users’ data is handled responsibly and securely. This achievement reflects LearnPress’s commitment to providing a seamless and compliant learning experience for its users.
