GDPR Compliance

How Cookie Handler helps you stay compliant with GDPR and Google Consent Mode v2.

✅ Lightweight Consent Banner with Google Compliance

  • Minimal, fast-loading consent banner
  • Displays clear options to users before any tracking begins
  • Sends Google Consent Mode signals to the dataLayer for Google Analytics and Ads
  • Adapts dynamically based on user location and regulatory scope (e.g., EU users only)

✅ Consent Logging for Legal Proof

  • Consent events logged automatically in our backend (Mongo DB or Google Cloud)
  • Stored securely with timestamp, user preferences, and region metadata
