The world’s most trusted cookie consent platform — now on WordPress.

Cookiebot by Usercentrics is a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) trusted by more than 2.4 million websites. Install the plugin to add an automatic cookie banner that scans your site, blocks cookies until visitors give cookie consent, and shows a clear cookie notice, helping you comply with GDPR, CCPA and CPRA, ePrivacy, LGPD, PDPA and 40+ other privacy laws. No code needed, and you can start on a free plan.

Whether you run a blog, a WooCommerce store or a multisite network, Cookiebot handles consent collection, cookie scanning and consent signals to Google automatically, so you can spend your time on your site instead of a compliance checklist.

Automatic cookie scanning & declaration

Cookiebot crawls your website and automatically detects and categorizes all cookies and trackers — even those added by third-party scripts. Your cookie declaration stays up to date with every scan.

Prior-consent cookie blocking

Cookies are blocked before consent is given — exactly as GDPR requires. Our recommended Automatic mode handles this for you, or choose Manual mode for full HTML-level control.

Fully customizable consent banner

Match the banner to your brand with custom colors, logos, fonts, and layouts. Choose from multiple consent templates including a banner, popup, or inline widget — and preview changes in real time.

Global cookie repository

Powered by Cookiebot™ continuously updated library of known cookies and trackers, so your declarations are accurate from day one.
