Rachel's GDPR Consent Manager

• Our extension will start analyzing your cookies as soon as its installed, but all analysis will happen locally on your computer, ensuring your data security.

• To start the auto/manual protection, please open a new tab, navigate to a site, and then check back to our extension dashboard.

• Rachel's Cookie Management is used for our academic research study to help users understand the existence of GDPR consent cookies. If you are installing our extension for the first time, the extension would pop up a survey website to help us gather your understanding of GDPR-related questions and improve future versions of our extension. Also, you could return to the survey website after months and update your answers. Only if you consent, your survey responses will be used in our research. Please note that even if you consent, we will never collect your personal data. Furthermore, we don’t store any personal identifiers in our collected survey data; any data collected will be used only for the purposes of non-commercial research, and all data will be deleted after the research project completes.

In "Main Menu" Panel:

• The signal for auto protection shows users whether the currently visited website is in our automatic protection database.
• If the signal is green, it indicates that auto protection could be offered in our extension. If it's yellow, it indicates that the recommended GDPR setting has been made on this website. If red, it means that the website is not in our database, or the website does not offer a customized GDPR option.
• We provide two slider options to support four functions: 1.Enable Auto protection on currently visited website: After “Apply”, the extension will automatically set GDPR protection for the website you are currently visiting. 2.Enable Auto protection on all visited websites: After clicking “Apply”, the extension will automatically set GDPR protections for all websites in our database. 3.Enable Manual protection on currently visited website: Clicking “Apply” will reset GDPR cookies for the website you are currently visiting so that you could manually set GDPR options. 4.Enable Manual protection on all visited websites: After “Apply”, we could reset GDPR cookies for all websites that you have set in your browser.
