Steps to Implement Privado Cookie Consent in your Website

Privado's Cookie Consent solution

Cookie Consent is the process by which websites take user's consent to set cookies. It started with Europe's ePrivacy directive or the cookie law. With ePrivacy, it was mandatory for websites to take consent from users before storing or accessing cookies from user's devices.

Getting Started with Privado

First, you will need to create an account on Privado's Cookie Consent solution. For details on how our cookie consent tool works, please check our knowledge base.

Categorizing Cookies:

We conduct a deep scan of your website and generate a list of cookies that you are using. We auto-categorize them into different categories, some of the lesser known cookies are not categorized and you should do so. More details on categorizing cookies are here.

Designing Cookie Consent Banner:

You can customize the cookie consent banner based on your website styling including text color, button color, background color and the text which has to be displayed. Refer to our article for more details on styling of the cookie consent banner.

Geo-Targetting Users:

Each country has their own requirements on the use of cookies. Europe has a strict Opt-In requirement, whereas California with CCPA has a Opt-Out requirement. You can geo-target users and display the right cookie consent banner with Opt-In/Opt-Out flow using our product. Here is a detailed article on  how to set geo-targetting with Privado.

Publishing Javascript

Once you have made all the changes, hit the Publish button at the top to make these changes live. Go to the Integrations tab and copy the Javascript code. This single line of code will be used to integrate the cookie consent banner in Webflow.
