How it sells itself

Consently adds a theme-matched cookie consent banner to your Shopify store to collect and record visitor consent for GDPR and CCPA — with no code to add to your theme. Visitors get a clear Accept, Reject, and Preferences choice, and tracking stays blocked until they consent. Each choice is recorded and signaled to Google Consent Mode v2 and Shopify's Customer Privacy API.

CookieConsentHQ adds a cookie consent banner to your online store through an app embed, with no code to edit. Known trackers stay blocked until a visitor accepts, and each choice is passed to Shopify's Customer Privacy API, so Shopify's own analytics and marketing respect it.

Key points
  • Blocks third-party trackers until visitors give consent
  • Auto-detects region for GDPR (EU) and CCPA/CPRA (California)
  • Analytics and marketing tags only run after visitors opt in
  • Cookie scanner shows which trackers your storefront loads
  • Blocks known trackers until visitors accept, then loads them
  • Passes each visitor's choice to Shopify's Customer Privacy API
  • Sends Google Consent Mode v2 signals and honours Global Privacy Control
  • Region rules: opt-in, opt-out or notice by country and US state
