What Simple Social Icons adds to your visitors’ browser
No trackers In our test of Simple Social Icons 4.1.0 on 7 November 2026, the plugin itself added no tracker and no cookie. What you place in your pages with it, such as a video or a map, still counts.
What matters for consent with Simple Social Icons
Icons from your site
The icons and the stylesheet come from your site. No social network sees the visit.
A link is not a tracker
Before the click, a profile link is only text on your page. The visitor chooses to visit the network.
Nothing to hold
The plugin has nothing that waits for consent. Cookie Rocks holds known trackers elsewhere on the page until the visitor agrees.
