The Proposed Drupal Privacy Initiative: What Is It and Why Now?
summary
Proposal creates a core framework for identifying, exporting and anonymizing information so contrib modules can declare stored personal data and third‑party trackers, building on the existing GDPR contrib module (about ~3,000 installs). Work uses a GitHub cross‑CMS repo and coordination with WordPress, Joomla, Umbraco and Typo3 to standardize declarations and enable features like a privacy policy generator and basic data‑request UI. This is a baseline in core, not a compliance guarantee, and is still a proposed initiative pending funding and core support.
