The GDPR Agreement Field in HT Contact Forms is specially designed to help you comply with data protection regulations like GDPR.
It allows you to request and record user consent for storing and processing their personal information.
This field ensures your form is legally compliant when collecting user data.
GDPR Agreement Field Settings: #
1. Admin Label #
Internal label visible only to form administrators, used for easy management of the field in the backend.
2. Required Error Message #

✅ Example: “This field is required.”
3. Description #
Enter the full text that users must agree to.
✅ Example:

📝 The description should clearly explain why you are collecting the user’s information and how you plan to use it.

Choose a size that fits naturally with your other form fields.
5. Field Class #
Add a custom CSS class if you need to style the GDPR checkbox differently using your theme’s CSS.
