Widerrufsbutton provides a structured, two-step electronic withdrawal (right of revocation) process for WooCommerce shops — compliant with § 356a BGB and EU Directive 2011/83/EU. All submissions are logged in the WordPress backend for full audit traceability.

Optional modal mode or dedicated form page
Two-step process: submission and confirmation
WooCommerce order verification (order ID + email + withdrawal period)

Honeypot field (bots are silently rejected)

IP addresses are never stored in plain text
Two-step confirmation with time-limited cryptographic token

Privacy:

The plugin stores only the data required to process and document a withdrawal: name, email address, order or contract reference, optional reason and remark, and timestamps. No data is transmitted to external servers. Emails are sent via the WordPress/WooCommerce mail system.

Data retention & uninstall:

Withdrawal records are retained until the shop operator deletes them. By default, plugin data is not removed on uninstall. Optionally, all plugin options and the withdrawal table can be deleted on uninstall (opt-in setting).

Legal notice:

This plugin provides a technical solution and does not replace individual legal advice.
