Cookie Compliance Features
Cookie Compliance is a cookie consent solution. Here are the features that make it a powerful and user-friendly Consent Management Platform for your business.
Cookie Consent
Consent record storage
Automatically stores a record of each consent and makes these records available for export (on the Free plan, records stop once the site passes its visit limit for the current cycle, and the dashboard shows and exports a 7-day log history). Keeps an exportable record of each consent choice, the kind of proof GDPR asks you to be able to show.
Automatic script blocking
Holds known non-essential scripts and iframes until the visitor chooses, in regions that require consent first (GDPR and UK PECR by default).
Extend blocking yourself
Found a script we don’t list? Add its URL as a pattern on any plan, or add your own provider on Professional, for each domain. Changes take effect when you publish.
Geolocation
Geolocation applies different rules depending on the visitor’s location: whether the banner shows, whether the Update consent control shows, whether autoblocking applies, and which privacy links appear. There is one rule for each law you select (GDPR, UK PECR, CCPA, other US state laws, LGPD, PIPEDA, POPIA) plus one for the rest of the world. Available on the Professional plan.
Consent Duration
The duration of a user’s consent can be set from 1 month to two years, and you can specify what options will be available to the site visitor. Default consent durations are linked by data access levels.
Update consent
Based on most recent guidance from EU Data Protection Authorities, the possibility to revoke a consent is now a required component of the consent tool. The Update consent feature allows visitors to change / update / revoke their consent as easily as it was initially set.
Consent Rules
Consent is recorded when a visitor chooses a level. On the Classic banner you can also let clicking elsewhere or scrolling record the choice (both off by default). On the New banner, scrolling or clicking elsewhere never records consent, and closing the banner before choosing records Private where the region requires consent first.
Banner Design
3-choice Architecture
Eliminates the dark pattern of deceptive, non-equal choices in the first layer and gives site visitors the ability to accept none, some, or all cookies through packaged choices called Data Access Levels.
Consent duration selector
Visitors can see and choose how long their consent lasts when you switch on the duration picker. On Professional you choose which durations are offered, from 1 month to 2 years, and the chosen duration is stored in each consent record. With Consent on Update (Professional), returning visitors are asked again when a change alters what their saved choice signals to Google, Meta or Microsoft.
Cookie purpose categories
Visitors can open Customize and see what each of the four purpose categories is for. The categories are Basic Operations, Content Personalization, Site Optimization and Ad Personalization.
Banner position
The banner has several built-in display options so you can locate it in a specific spot on the page to match the design and aesthetics of the site. You can place it at the top, bottom, side or even in the middle of the page.
Customizable colors
Cookie Compliance allows a lot of flexibility when it comes to the color scheme of the banner. It allows you to match it with the visual identity of a particular company or organization.
Animation support
Animations attract attention and by modifying their style and duration you can grab the attention of the site user and make them interact with the banner and give their consent.
Account Management
Multi-language support
Cookie Compliance has native support for sites in multiple languages. It has built-in banner translations for 19 languages besides English and if the translation you need is not among them, you can easily add it.
Subscriptions control
The list of subscriptions contains complete information about the type, duration and number of licenses of your subscriptions. You can freely cancel them or add another subscription at any time.
Multi-domain management
Your account is not limited to one website. Cookie Compliance allows you to easily manage additional Free or Professional domains within a single account.
Integrations & Standards
Google Consent Mode v2
Sets Google’s default consent state on load and updates all four v2 signals the moment a visitor makes a choice, so Analytics and Ads tags stay aligned with your consent policy automatically.
Microsoft Consent Mode
Extends the same consent-first approach to Microsoft Advertising, Clarity, and UET pixels, so Microsoft’s tools only activate for visitors who’ve actually agreed to them.
Facebook/Meta Consent Mode
Applies each visitor’s consent choice to the Meta Pixel, keeping Facebook and Instagram ad measurement consistent with what they agreed to.
Global Privacy Control (GPC)
When you turn on GPC support, honors the browser-level Global Privacy Control signal as an opt-out preference, designed to help meet CCPA/CPRA and similar state-law requirements before a visitor even interacts with the banner.
WP Consent API Integration
Registers as the active Consent Management Platform for the WordPress Consent API, so cooperative plugins like WooCommerce and Google Site Kit automatically respect visitor consent — no custom code required.
Automatic Provider Recognition
Ships with a built-in database of 282 patterns covering 181 third-party providers, so most analytics, ads, and embed scripts are recognized and held pre-consent out of the box — no manual setup required.
MCP server for AI assistants
Hosted MCP server so an AI assistant can add a cookie consent banner instead of writing one by hand. No account required to start. See cookie-compliance.co/mcp/.
