Description

Pavel Silinskii Cookie Consent displays a customizable cookie consent banner that lets visitors accept or decline cookies. Everything is configured from the WordPress admin — no coding required.

The visitor’s choice is stored in a single first-party cookie (pscc_consent) in their own browser. No personal data is sent to any server and the plugin makes no external requests.

Features

  • Bar or popup layout
  • Fixed top or bottom position (bar layout)
  • Light and dark theme
  • Customizable title, message, and button labels
  • Optional Decline button
  • Link to your Privacy Policy page
  • Consent remembered for 1–365 days
  • Custom Accept button color
  • No external requests, no tracking
  • Helps you collect cookie consent for GDPR and CCPA
  • Lightweight: vanilla JavaScript, no jQuery on the frontend, assets load only while the banner is shown

FAQ

Where is consent stored?

In a first-party browser cookie named pscc_consent, with the value accepted or declined. It expires after the number of days set in Settings Cookie Consent Appearance.

Does the plugin send data anywhere?

No. There are no external requests. The only server request is a nonce-protected call to your own site’s admin-ajax.php that acknowledges the choice; nothing is stored on the server.

Is it GDPR compliant?

The plugin provides the consent interface and records the visitor’s choice. Legal compliance depends on your site configuration — for example, which cookies your theme and other plugins set before or regardless of consent. Consult a legal professional for your specific case.

How do I change the button color?

Go to Settings Cookie Consent Appearance and pick a color with the color picker.

How do I show the banner again for testing?

Delete the pscc_consent cookie in your browser, or open the site in a private window.
