Overview

Cookiebot by Usercentrics is a Google-certified CMP (consent management platform) that automates cookie compliance. It detects cookies and trackers, pauses non-essential ones until a choice is made, records consent for audit, and passes consent to Google via Consent Mode v2—helping you meet GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, LGPD, ePrivacy and more.

Why it matters: basic banners that don’t control scripts can leave tracking running without permission—raising compliance risk and reducing measurement accuracy because valid consent isn’t signaled. Cookiebot by Usercentrics handles consent correctly, keeps cookie information up to date automatically, and preserves analytics and ads—with less manual effort.

Trusted at scale: 2.3M+ site scans/month, 7B+ consents, 600,000+ websites, 60 languages.

Best Cookie Complianz plugin for WP
by Jakub Pankowski·6 days ago·1 reply

Best Cookie Complianz plugin for WP!

For me Cookie Bot is the best WP Complianz plugin for WP because of ease of integration and working cookie auto detect (and functional blocking).

Great cookie plugin!

Very easy to set up and works exactly as expected. Ensures cookies are blocked until consent is given.

Easy to install and get implemented. I would say be sure to clear your cookies in your browser or you will never see the popup.
