The Data Privacy plugin forms part of Moodle’s privacy feature set and will assist sites to become GDPR compliant.

This plugin provides the workflow for users to submit subject access and erasure requests and for site administrators and privacy officers to process these requests. It also includes the data registry to define a purpose and retention period for data stored in a Moodle site.

This plugin has been integrated into the Moodle 3.5 release of 17 May 2018 but remains available for Moodle 3.3.6 to 3.3.7 and 3.4.3 to 3.4.4 as a separately downloadable plugin.

    Hi Dinis,

    We released 2 new versions for each major branch (Moodle 3.3 and Moodle 3.4) the first one hides the plugins registry link as it requires a function that is not available until 12 April Moodle core versions. The second commit adds the plugins registry back, requiring 12 April moodle core versions.

    Hi, I'm not an expert in Moodle, but I manage my own Moodle website. I'm trying to implement the "Data privacy" tool. But how do I actually install it? Where within my Moodle folder should I place the files? I was not able to find any documentation on that. I thank you in advance.

    Hello Michel, here's a link to the documentation: https://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_plugins

    As an alternative to installing the plugin, you may want to upgrade your site to Moodle 3.5 (due for release tomorrow 17 May 2018), in which the data privacy tool is included as standard.

    Hello,
    I have installed version 3.5 but have a problem with data requests. After starting cron job, I get
    ''Adhoc task failed: tool_dataprivacy\task\initiate_data_request_task,Table "tool_dataprivacy_contextlist" not exist

    All requests from users have Pre-processing status.

    Thank you for any information.

    @bobby: you need 3.4.3 - go to the other releases page on the moodle download site and upgrade to 3.4.3

    Hi, I am using Moodle version 3.4.3+ (20180524) and the GDPR toolset will not install. Do you know if these plugins will be updated soon for the current build soon?

    Hi Olga, the Data privacy tool is included as standard in Moodle 3.7.2 so no need for you to install a plugin.
