  Do I have to add anything to my blog since I have a few followers from EU/UK countries?

  Hi there, you haven’t given us a link to the site you need help with, so it’s harder to give you accurate information.

  All free sites on WordPress.com now have the Cookies & Consent widget enabled automatically on their sites https://en.support.wordpress.com/cookie-widget/ but adding the widget in itself does not necessarily make your site compliant with GDPR.

  Please read the sticky post at the top of this forum for more information and resources about WordPress.com and the GDPR https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/about-the-gdpr/

  Here are links to a couple of Staff replies which might help clarify:

  If you are referring to a site that uses the standalone WordPress software, there are resources available to you in the latest update to WP. You’ll want to check out your WP Admin dashboard for information. For further help with the standalone WP software, please head over to https://wordpress.org/support.
