Discourse can be configured to be GDPR compliant, but there’s not anything as simple as a setting that says `enable GDPR`. Specific compliance can vary by the nature of your organization, where your Discourse site is hosted, etc… considering your site is part of a business, the best way to ensure compliance would be to consult with a lawyer about your specific needs.

There are some things available that may help, for example:

- [(Deprecated) List of cookies used by Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/list-of-cookies-used-by-discourse/83690)
- [Discourse Cookie Consent Banner](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-cookie-consent-banner/108380)
- [Anonymizing Users in Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/anonymizing-users-in-discourse/86929)
- [Legal Tools Plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/legal-tools-plugin/87966)
