Cookie Control Premium

Overview

Anchor link for Overview

Cookie Control Premium is a consent management platform (CMP) built for teams who want to be compliant without spending time on manual setup and configuration. It scans your site to discover what cookies and scripts are active, generates a ready-to-deploy consent banner through a guided wizard, and keeps everything up to date as your site changes with regular, scheduled audits.

The end result for your visitors is a familiar consent banner — they choose which categories of cookies to accept or decline, and third-party scripts are blocked or released accordingly. The difference is how little work is required from you to set it up and maintain it.

How it differs from v9

Cookie Control v9 requires you to write and maintain a JavaScript configuration object in your codebase. Every change to your consent setup — adding a new cookie category, updating banner text, enabling a new integration — means editing code and redeploying.

Premium removes that requirement entirely. Your configuration lives in your account, not your codebase. A single script tag with your API key is all that is needed on your site. Updates you make in your account area are live as soon as you publish them — no code changes, no redeployment.

The underlying consent mechanism and design - blocking tracking scripts until a user accepts the relevant category — is the same in both products. Premium simply makes it faster to set up and easier to maintain.

Key features

Automated cookie scanning

Add your domain and run a scan. Cookie Control Premium identifies cookies and third-party trackers (iframes and scripts) active on your site and uses the results to pre-populate your configuration.
No manual cookie auditing required.

Configuration wizard

A visual wizard walks you through categorising your cookies, selecting your regulatory requirements (GDPR, CCPA, and others), and customising your banner's appearance and language. Everything is driven by your scan results, so you are always configuring based on what is relevant for your site.

Single script deployment

Deploy by adding a script tag to your site with your API key defined as a URL parameter. Once the tag is in place, you never need to touch it again and your published configuration changes automatically load via JSON as part of your licence validation.

Automatic script blocking

Third-party scripts and iframes are automatically blocked from executing until a visitor consents to the relevant category. Scripts can be managed through the visual wizard or tagged directly in your HTML using the data attributes.

Third-party integrations

Built-in support for popular analytics and marketing services including Google Consent Mode v2, Meta Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity. All integrations can enabled and managed directly from the wizard — no additional code required.

Automatic updates

Your site is scanned on a regular schedule. When changes are detected, a suggested configuration update is prepared and you are notified. Accepted changes go live immediately once published.

Staging environments

Every change — whether from the wizard, or a rescan update — is stored on your account and associated with the licence's primary domain. You always pick up from the current state of your site on your next visit and can preview changes on staging environments before publishing.

CMS support

Installation guides are available for common CMS platforms including WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla, so you can add the script tag without needing to edit HTML directly.
