Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Cookie Consent Banner?

A cookie consent banner is a notification displayed on websites to inform visitors about the use of cookies and tracking technologies. It allows users to give, refuse, or manage their consent — a core requirement under GDPR, CCPA, and other global privacy regulations.

Is a cookie consent banner mandatory for GDPR?

Yes. Under GDPR, if your website uses non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics, marketing, social media tracking), you must obtain explicit, informed consent before setting those cookies. A consent banner is the standard way to achieve this.

What's the difference between GDPR and CCPA?

GDPR (EU) requires opt-in consent — users must actively agree before cookies are set. CCPA (California) allows an opt-out model — you can set cookies by default but must provide a clear way for users to opt out of the sale of personal data. Our generator supports both approaches.

How do I install the generated code?

Simply copy the generated HTML snippet and paste it into your website's <body> tag, ideally just before the closing </body>. The code is self-contained with inline CSS and vanilla JavaScript — no external dependencies required.

Can I customize the banner's appearance?

Absolutely. Use the visual configurator above to adjust colors, text, position, border radius, and button options. The live preview updates instantly so you can see exactly how it will look before copying the code.

What happens when a user rejects cookies?

When a user clicks "Reject," the banner records this choice in a browser cookie and hides itself. No non-essential cookies should be set. The choice is remembered for the duration you specify (default: 365 days), preventing the banner from repeatedly appearing.

Does the cookie consent banner affect SEO?

A properly implemented cookie banner does not negatively affect SEO. Google understands that consent banners are a legal requirement. The generated code uses lightweight vanilla JavaScript and minimal CSS, ensuring fast load times. Avoid hiding content behind the banner for best results.

Is this generator free to use for commercial projects?

Yes! The code generated by this tool is completely free to use on personal and commercial websites. No attribution required. However, please ensure your implementation complies with your local regulations — this tool provides the code but cannot guarantee legal compliance on its own.

What are essential vs. non-essential cookies?

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for website functionality (e.g., session cookies, shopping cart, login). These generally do not require consent. Non-essential cookies include analytics, advertising, social media, and preference cookies — these require user consent under GDPR.
