You need to be aware about what data you're collecting on visitors/customers and how you use it. No automated scan or verification service can tell you how you're using data. Regardless, this is a legal question about 3rd-party plugins and themes, so is off-topic here. | |

If it's an open source project than you need to check their public repository, like for example GitHub or something. I'm afraid that there's no automatic scanner or a way to do this in an automatic way. You really need to check each plugin. You could also check your browser's cookies and dig in the code of every plugin, but this will be time-consuming | |
