Hi, I wonder if someone could advise. I added the subscriptions plugin and set it up with a Stripe account, looks great and seems to work well. However I noticed that Stripe seems to set two cookies as soon as someone hits the Forum, even before they log in. (which seems to be a potential GDPR issue)
Can’t see any options anywhere in subscriptions or on stripe to control this.
Am I doing something wrong, or is there a way to tweak this so it doesn’t add cookies before someone has logged in? (I did try clean / logged out browsers, same issue)
tia

According to Stripe, they [set cookies for Fraud Protection](https://stripe.com/cookie-settings) which [do not require consent under GDPR](https://github.com/stripe/react-stripe-js/issues/367#issuecomment-1368483493).

Hi, thanks for that .. might be something to include in the Privacy Policy for sites using subscriptions?
