WPLP Cookie Consent is a free WordPress cookie consent plugin that adds a customizable cookie banner, blocks third-party scripts until visitors consent, and keeps your cookie disclosures accurate with a built-in cookie scanner. Help meet GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, ePrivacy, UK GDPR, LGPD, POPIA, PIPEDA and other global privacy law requirements – with consent records stored on your own site, not a third-party dashboard.

WPLP Cookie Consent is the core consent management module of the WPLP Compliance Platform, the same platform that also powers WPLP’s legal policy generators. Cookie consent and legal documentation are built on one connected system, so your cookie banner, cookie scan results, and cookie policy page all stay in sync instead of living in separate, disconnected tools.

The plugin is built to be easy to configure out of the box, while still giving you the depth of controls needed to understand exactly what cookies your site uses and manage consent for each one.

✅ Why Choose WPLP Cookie Consent

• Built-in cookie scanner – automatically detects cookies and third-party scripts running on your site, no manual auditing required

• Automatic script & content blocking – stops Google Analytics, Meta/Facebook Pixel, Google Ads, Microsoft Clarity, TikTok Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and social embeds from loading until a visitor consents

• Google Consent Mode v2 – keep Google Ads and Analytics working correctly while respecting visitor consent signals

• Consent logging – stores consent status, category, and timestamp for audit-ready records, kept on your own WordPress database

• Drag & drop banner builder – match your brand with custom colors, layouts, fonts, and button text, no CSS required

• Free tier includes real compliance tools – cookie scanning and script blocking aren’t locked behind a paywall

• No visitor-based limits – no traffic caps, pageview limits, or per-visitor pricing

• WP Consent API support – shares visitor consent state with compatible WordPress plugins

⚖️ Why Choose WPLP Cookie Consent Over a SaaS CMP

Most cookie consent platforms are hosted SaaS tools that charge by pageviews or monthly visitors and keep your consent records on their servers. WPLP Cookie Consent works differently: it runs entirely inside WordPress, stores every consent record in your own database, and never caps how much traffic your site gets.

You get real compliance tooling – cookie scanning, script blocking, and consent logging in the free plugin, with no per-visitor pricing and no third-party dashboard to depend on.

Cookie Scanning and Detection

A built-in cookie scanner automatically detects cookies and third-party services running on your website, so your disclosures stay accurate as your site evolves. The scanner helps you:

• Identify cookies and scripts added by commonly used services and plugins

• Group detected cookies by category for clearer visitor-facing disclosure

• Keep cookie information up to date as your site changes over time

• Scan results feed directly into your cookie policy and consent configuration, so what you disclose always reflects what’s actually running on your site.
