Description

Tiki has the option to interact with Google Analytics.

Now the first court rulings are there: Google Analytics directly violate the GDPR, therefore they are illegal throughout the EU. Fines are VERY heavy, so this must not be taken lightly. The fines range up to 20 million Euro or 4 percent of a year's turnover (sic! Not profit!), whichever is HIGHER.

Yes, Analytics is optional, and it's the decision of an admin, correct.

But IMHO Tiki should inform the admin when he/she activates this, that compliance with current law must be observed, and that Analytics can be (very) problematic in this regard. And to be on the very safe side, IMHO there should be a checkbox that spells out as confirmation "Yes, I am aware of the compliance issues imposed by this".
