One of the recommendations for sites that run forums in order to comply with GDPR is as follows
Make sure you add a checkbox specifically asking forum / board users if they consent to you storing and using their personal information and messages. The checkbox must be unchecked by default. Also mention if you will send or share the data with any 3rd-parties and which.
Is there a way a comment or label can be added as part of the subscription process, for example, a checkbox that the user needs to tick before the process can complete ?
@anonymous3542 isn't that better handled during the Wordpress signup and not for each and every plugin ?
Is that enough ?

I would prefer the proposal suggested by anonymous3542, for it to be part of the wpForo process. I use wpForo as my front end for sign-up not wordpress, I totally hide the wordpress dashboard members access their account info via the forum tools.
