Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

CookieZen manages the consent of everyone who visits your site, sends the full set of Consent Mode signals to Google and Microsoft, scans your pages for cookies and stores every consent decision in case of an audit. Setting it up takes a few minutes.

The plugin connects your site to a CookieZen account. All of the logic, meaning the cookie scanner, tracker classification, Consent Mode signals, the consent register and the statistics, runs on the CookieZen service, so the plugin itself stays small. You change the look and the wording of the banner in the panel, without touching your theme and without pasting anything into your template code.

What makes CookieZen different

Automatic cookie scanner

CookieZen crawls the key pages of your site and detects cookies and tracking pixels, including the ones that only fire after consent is given. The scan repeats every 30 days, so the list does not fall behind the changes you make to the site.

Google Consent Mode v2 with no configuration

Every required signal reaches Google tags before they start collecting data. url_passthrough and ads_data_redaction are supported as well, so Google Ads can still model conversions when a visitor declines cookies. You do not have to write your own gtag calls or change anything in Google Tag Manager.

Microsoft UET Consent Mode and consent in Clarity

Consent Mode for Microsoft Universal Event Tracking (UET) is supported, so paid campaigns in Microsoft Advertising measure conversions in line with the visitor’s decision. The correct consent signal is passed to Microsoft Clarity too. There is nothing to connect and no code to add by hand.

WP Consent API integration

The WP Consent API plugin does not collect consent itself, it only exposes it to other plugins, so without a consent manager feeding it, plugins that follow the standard behave as if consent had been granted. CookieZen takes that role automatically: the visitor’s decision reaches compatible plugins such as WooCommerce, Google Site Kit, WP Statistics or Pixel Manager, both in JavaScript and in PHP code.

Meta Pixel and Conversions API from PixelYourSite wait for consent

If you use PixelYourSite, CookieZen holds its pixels, its server-side events (Conversions API) and its tracking cookies until the visitor gives marketing consent, with no configuration.

Consent records and statistics

Every decision is stored with its date, time, country and language, which gives you proof of consent in case of an audit. IP addresses are irreversibly hashed, so no personal data about the people visiting your site is kept. The panel also shows your consent acceptance rate, meaning how much of your traffic actually reaches your analytics and your ads.

Several domains on one plan

Running more than one site, or a shop next to a company page? You manage them from a single panel within one plan, without separate accounts and separate fees.

A Polish product

A Polish company, a panel and documentation in Polish, and support in Polish. We know this market and we issue a VAT invoice in PLN.

Pricing

The plugin is free. CookieZen plans differ only in their session limit, not in what they include: the cookie scanner, Consent Mode v2, the consent register and the statistics are all there from day one, including on the permanent Free plan for up to 1,000 sessions per month. Paid plans start at 49 PLN net per month for 50,000 sessions, you can change or cancel them at any time, and signing up does not require card details.

External services

CookieZen is a consent management platform delivered as a service. com to show the consent banner and record your visitors’ consent; without that connection the banner cannot work. On every visit it sends your Site Key and the standard request headers of the visitor’s browser (IP address, User-Agent, Referer), and IP addresses are irreversibly hashed on the CookieZen side.

The FAQ describes it in more detail.

The service is provided by Semavo Solutions Sp. : Privacy policy, Cookie policy, Terms of service.
