Cookie Notice WordPress plugin is a simple and customizable website banner that can help you meet the cookie consent requirements of the EU GDPR and CCPA regulations. It integrates seamlessly with the Cookie Compliance, a cutting-edge Consent Management Platform (CMP), to ensure that your website is up-to-date with the latest consent laws.

Cookie Compliance is an innovative solution that provides automated compliance features and advanced design controls. It is the first to offer Intentional Consent, a framework that incorporates the most recent guidelines from over 100 countries and international organizations such as the IEEE and European Center for Digital Rights. Cookie Compliance presents a user-friendly, multi-level experience and offers new options and controls to help site visitors understand and participate in data privacy decisions.

Cookie Compliance web application provides a more ethical and proactive approach to capturing and managing consent. This early version of the Intentional Consent framework is the result of Hu-manity.co’s collaboration with leading Fortune 500 companies, governments, and standards organizations. We believe that the current unequal relationship between consumers and corporations regarding data privacy and consent online is unsustainable. By making this application available to all website owners and operators we aim to eliminate the dark patterns in online consent.
