As of today, Mautic can't be used fully compliant with GDPR for all functions. There are possible hacks and patches, but out of the box several functions are not compliant.

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Mautic currently can't be used fully GDPR compliant. Also other regulations in other regions might be concerned (e.g California Consumer Privacy Act CCPA).

Describe the solution you'd like

1. Identify the code parts, that are responsible for the current state and create tasks for quick workaround / patches.
2. Improving the code to remove non compliant functions or allow to disable them.
3. Documentation of how to run Mautic in a compliant way.

Describe alternatives or workarounds you've considered

Quick patches to disable some functions are a quick interim solution, such as the described patch to disable Gravatar.

Does this issue could impact on users private data?

Yes, Mautic currently sets e.g. cookies without consent and tracks data, that it shouldn't without consent.

Funded by
There are a couple of people supporting this task, would spend time to investigate more into the problem and providing patches. We could possibly also collect feedback from current business users and their willingness to spend money to have Mautic compliant with regulations in the near future.
