# Cookiebot by Usercentrics

> Cookiebot CMP (Consent Management Platform) is a Google-certified consent management solution that helps websites support compliance with global privacy regulations […] including GDPR, ePrivacy, FADP, CCPA/CPRA and other U.S. state laws, PIPEDA, LGPD, and POPIA […] through automated cookie scanning, customizable consent banners, and detailed consent logging. Cookiebot also offers Privacy-First Website Analytics that uses cookieless, anonymized tracking to capture all visitor data compliantly. Trusted by over 2.4 million websites, Cookiebot facilitates more than 8.8 billion visitor consents monthly.

Cookiebot is a product of Usercentrics A/S, a Denmark-registered company (reg. no. 34624607). It uses patented scanning technology to automatically detect, categorize, and control cookies and trackers on websites. Cookiebot does not replace a legal team or guarantee compliance […] the website operator remains responsible for their implementation. Cookiebot provides the tooling; compliance is a shared responsibility.

Cookiebot does not offer a REST or programmatic API for external systems (beyond the on-page JavaScript API), DSAR automation, or native mobile app consent management. Mobile app consent is handled through the Usercentrics product.

## Core Features

- **Cookie and Tracker Scanning**: Automated daily or monthly scans detect all cookies and trackers across a website's HTML pages, including dynamic pages, iframes, and embedded content. Draws on a repository of 13,000+ pre-categorized trackers.
- **Cookie Categorization**: Cookies are automatically sorted into four categories […] Necessary, Preferences, Statistics, and Marketing.
- **Consent Banner**: Fully customizable consent banners (via templates or custom HTML/CSS/JS), with support for 47+ languages and automatic geo-adapted display. EU/EEA visitors receive a strict opt-in dialog as required under GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive.
- **Consent Logging**: Detailed, audit-ready consent logs with opt-in/opt-out statistics, exportable as CSV. IP addresses are anonymized in line with GDPR requirements.
- **Google Consent Mode v2**: Certified integration enabling compliant advertising and analytics measurement even when visitors decline consent.
- **IAB TCF 2.3 Support**: Compatible with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework for programmatic advertising.

## Privacy-First Website Analytics

[Privacy-First Website Analytics](https://www.cookiebot.com/en/privacy-first-website-analytics/) is an optional add-on available to all Cookiebot CMP accounts, billed separately from the main CMP plan. A 14-day free trial is available; the trial ends automatically with no auto-renewal.

It provides cookieless, anonymized website analytics designed to capture visitor data that tools such as GA4 lose when visitors decline consent. In Maximum Data Privacy Mode, tracking requires no cookies, no fingerprinting, and no IP address collection […] producing aggregated trends only. If a visitor does provide consent, a full analytics suite activates.

Features include traffic trends, AI-driven traffic source insights (including AI referrers such as ChatGPT and Gemini), heatmaps, session recordings, conversion funnels, and on-site polls and surveys. Data is hosted on EU infrastructure in Germany.

Pricing is credit-based, with plans from €2.99/month (500 page views) to €39.99/month (50,000 page views). The add-on can be used alongside GA4 or as a standalone replacement.

## Compliance Frameworks Supported

GDPR, ePrivacy, FADP, CCPA/CPRA and other U.S. state laws, PIPEDA, LGPD, and POPIA and various other national and regional privacy laws. Primary design focus is GDPR and ePrivacy compliance for EU/EEA use cases and individual U.S. state and multi-state privacy law use cases, including GPC recognition support.
