Getting started with **Secure Privacy** is simple thanks to seamless onboarding built directly into your CMS plugin. Without ever leaving your WordPress or Shopify dashboard, you can sign up, configure your **cookie consent banner**, and activate your **Consent Management Platform (CMP)** — achieving GDPR, CCPA, and global privacy law compliance in minutes.

**Note:** Seamless in-plugin onboarding is currently supported for the **Shopify** and **WordPress** plugins.

## Who Is This For?

This guide is for website owners and developers installing the **Secure Privacy plugin** on WordPress or Shopify for the first time. It walks you through account creation, domain registration, and activating your cookie consent banner — no technical experience required.

Signing up automatically enrolls you in a **30-day free trial** — no credit card required. After completing onboarding, log in to the **Secure Privacy CMP Console** to access all features and manage your privacy compliance settings.

## Adding Your Domain to Display the Cookie Consent Banner

After creating your account, add the domain where your CMP is installed to begin displaying your **cookie consent banner** to visitors:

Once the domain is successfully added, you will see the following confirmation screen:

Click **Change Settings** to open the **Secure Privacy CMP Console**. Use the same email and password from your plugin sign-up to access and configure your settings.

## Managing Your Cookie Banner Settings for an Existing Account

If you are already logged in via the plugin, a domain selection screen will appear automatically:
