CookieShift is a Cookie Consent Management Platform (CMP) for websites that want a clearer way to manage cookies, tracking technologies, visitor consent, and privacy preferences.<\/p>\n\n
The CookieShift WordPress plugin connects your website to the CookieShift platform. Once connected, CookieShift can display a customizable cookie consent banner and preference center while the CookieShift dashboard provides tools for scanning cookies, managing consent categories, configuring supported tracking behavior, reviewing consent activity, and managing privacy-related settings.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift brings cookie discovery, consent management, banner customization, multilingual tools, consent analytics, and AI-assisted privacy workflows into one connected experience.<\/p>\n\n
It is designed to help website owners understand what is running on their website and give visitors meaningful control over their privacy choices.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift connects your WordPress website with the hosted CookieShift platform.<\/p>\n\n
After installing the plugin:<\/p>\n\n
The WordPress plugin provides the WordPress integration and loads the CookieShift CMP. Cookie scanning, dashboard functionality, analytics, AI-assisted tools, and other hosted services are provided by the CookieShift platform.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift provides a customizable cookie consent banner that helps visitors understand and manage their privacy choices.<\/p>\n\n
Depending on the configuration, visitors can accept cookies and tracking technologies, reject non-essential cookies, customize consent preferences, choose individual consent categories, open the preference center, and change their preferences later.<\/p>\n\n
Administrators can manage banner content, buttons, categories, languages, appearance, preference-center settings, and consent behavior from the CookieShift platform.<\/p>\n\n
The CookieShift preference center gives visitors more control over their privacy choices.<\/p>\n\n
Administrators can organize cookies and tracking technologies into categories such as Necessary, Preferences, Analytics, Marketing, Advertising, and other non-essential technologies.<\/p>\n\n
Visitors can review available categories and update their preferences according to the configuration published by the website administrator.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift includes a hosted scanner that helps discover cookies, trackers, scripts, and other technologies used by your website.<\/p>\n\n
The scanner can help you:<\/p>\n\n
Scanning is provided by the CookieShift hosted service rather than being performed entirely inside the WordPress plugin.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift can use visitor consent preferences to control supported non-essential tracking technologies.<\/p>\n\n
This can help website administrators manage technologies such as analytics, marketing, advertising, and other non-essential tracking according to the visitor's consent state.<\/p>\n\n
Actual enforcement can depend on how individual scripts and tags are implemented, browser behavior, and tag loading order. Review the implementation guidance provided in your CookieShift dashboard when configuring tracking technologies.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift provides tools for managing the consent workflow.<\/p>\n\n
Administrators can configure:<\/p>\n\n
Configuration is managed through CookieShift, so normal banner changes do not require editing WordPress theme files.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift can be configured to work with Google Consent Mode and communicate visitor consent signals to supported Google services.<\/p>\n\n
The final behavior depends on your Google tag configuration, CookieShift settings, and how Google services are implemented on your website.<\/p>\n\n
Always verify your tag implementation and consent configuration before publishing changes.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift supports multilingual consent experiences for websites serving visitors in different languages and regions.<\/p>\n\n
Administrators can manage consent-related content for different languages through the CookieShift platform.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift also provides AI-assisted translation capabilities that can help generate translation content for review before publishing.<\/p>\n\n
Translated content should always be reviewed before being shown to visitors.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift includes AI-assisted tools to simplify repetitive cookie and privacy-management tasks.<\/p>\n\n
Depending on your plan and configuration, AI assistance can help with:<\/p>\n\n
AI-generated results are assistance only. They should be reviewed before publishing and do not certify GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, ePrivacy, or any other legal requirement.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift provides technical tools that can help websites manage consent workflows associated with:<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift helps website owners provide privacy choices, manage visitor consent, and control supported non-essential tracking according to their configuration.<\/p>\n\n
Privacy requirements vary depending on location, business activities, data processing practices, technologies, third-party services, and applicable laws.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift does not guarantee legal compliance. Installing the plugin alone does not make a website legally compliant.<\/p>\n\n
Website owners remain responsible for their privacy notices, cookie policies, consent configuration, tracking implementation, and applicable legal requirements.<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift is designed to work across multiple website platforms and technologies.<\/p>\n\n
Available integrations and implementation options include:<\/p>\n\n
The CookieShift WordPress plugin provides the WordPress integration while the CookieShift platform provides centralized consent management and privacy tools.<\/p>\n\n
The CookieShift dashboard provides the central management area for connected websites.<\/p>\n\n
Depending on your plan and configuration, you can access:<\/p>\n\n
CookieShift provides a Free plan so website owners can get started without requiring a paid subscription.<\/p>\n\n
Available features and limits depend on the selected CookieShift plan and can include limits for websites, scans, AI usage, and other platform capabilities.<\/p>\n\n
