Ensuring a website is legally compliant can be complex. Through our partner iubenda, we offer you a comprehensive compliance solution directly as an add-on in your Raidboxes dashboard. In this article, you’ll learn how to purchase the add-on, set it up, and connect it to your WordPress site via plugin.
What is the iubenda add-on?
Iubenda is a professional solution for creating privacy policies, cookie banners, and terms and conditions, among other things. You can purchase the add-on directly from your Raidboxes account. In your automatically generated Iubenda account, you can centrally manage all the sites for which you’ve activated the add-on. With a variety of pricing plans available, the solution can easily scale to meet your site’s needs at any time.
💡 Cloud Benefits & Automatic Updates: Your legal texts are hosted in the cloud by iubenda. Changes made in the iubenda Dashboard are automatically applied to your website. In addition, the texts are automatically updated as soon as legal requirements change—so you stay up to date without any manual effort.
Rates at a Glance
Essentials: Ideal for simple websites and blogs.
Advanced: For advanced projects with more stringent requirements.
Ultimate: The all-in-one solution for online stores (including terms and conditions) and high traffic.
👉 Licensing Note: The iubenda add-on is always tied to a specific box's contract. If you host multiple websites with us, each box requires its own license. As soon as you unlink the box from the contract, the corresponding URL is automatically removed from your iubenda account. However, it can easily be linked and set up again later.

Tip: Use iubenda's auto-configuration! The tool automatically adds the detected services to your privacy policy, saving you the trouble of manually searching for the appropriate clauses.
Configuration: Select your country (e.g., Germany) and your target audience. During configuration, you can also customize the position, design, and other properties of the cookie banner.
ℹ️ * Understanding Language Settings: Note the difference between the two language levels:
Dashboard Language: This determines the language in which you configure settings in iubenda.
Plugin/Display Language: This determines the language in which your legal texts and the cookie banner are displayed to visitors on your website.
3.3 Integration with WordPress (plugin solution)
The easiest way to integrate the cookie banner and legal notices is to use the official iubenda plugin.
Log in to your WordPress site via the Raidboxes dashboard using Single Sign-On.
Go to Plugins → Install and search for “iubenda”.
Install and activate the plugin “iubenda | All-in-one Compliance for GDPR, Cookie Law, CCPA & more”.
Go back to your iubenda dashboard and select “Simplified Embedding”.
The plugin will ask you to confirm the connection to your iubenda account. Click on Yes, I agree to this connection.
3.4 Contact Information and Conclusion
To ensure that your privacy policy is legally complete, iubenda requires information about the website operator:
Enter your name (or company name) and the official email address listed in your legal notice.
Use the Preview to check that all information has been entered correctly.
💡 Pro tip for testing: To check that the cookie banner is working properly, it’s best to open your website in a private window (incognito mode) in your browser, where you are not logged in as an administrator.
