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

Turbo Cookie is a lightweight, privacy-first cookie consent plugin for WordPress. It helps you comply with GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations by showing a customizable cookie consent banner, blocking non-essential scripts until visitors give consent, and logging consent records locally in your WordPress database.

Built by Turbo Addons — the same team behind popular WordPress tools used by thousands of sites.

Cookie Consent Banner

  • Customizable position: bottom bar, top bar, floating (bottom-left/right), or center modal
  • Layout styles: bar, box, or cloud
  • Smooth animations: slide, fade, or none
  • Full color customization for background, text, and buttons
  • Custom banner message and title
  • Cookie policy page link
  • Show/hide decline button

Preferences Modal

  • Four consent categories: Essential, Functional, Analytics, Marketing
  • Toggle switches for each category
  • Essential cookies always active (cannot be disabled)
  • Editable category names and descriptions

Script Blocking

  • Automatically detects and blocks known tracking scripts until consent is given
  • Blocks Google Analytics, Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and 40+ services

Google Consent Mode v2

  • Extend category-to-signal mapping via turbo_cookie_gcm_mapping filter

Consent Logging

Privacy

Turbo Cookie does not send any visitor or site data to external servers. All consent records are stored in your own WordPress database. IP addresses are masked before storage.

No telemetry. No tracking. No account required.

Legal Notice

Turbo Cookie provides technical tools for cookie consent management. Whether your site meets applicable privacy laws depends on your specific site, policies, and data practices. For legal advice about your compliance obligations, consult a qualified legal professional.

External Services

Turbo Cookie stores all consent logs, settings, and cookie state in your own WordPress database. No visitor data, site data, or analytics are sent to any external server by this plugin.

The one exception is optional geo targeting: if you enable it, the visitor’s IP is used to detect their country so the banner can be shown only where required. Detection first checks the Cloudflare CF-IPCountry header and other CDN headers (no external call). com API; the result is cached locally for 24 hours.

Disable geo targeting to keep the plugin fully offline.
