Overview
CookieYes is a cookie consent management platform for achieving GDPR, CCPA, and ePrivacy compliance. It scans sites for cookies, displays customizable consent banners, and blocks third-party scripts based on visitor consent choices.
What This Script Does
The CookieYes script scans your website for cookies and categorizes them, then presents a consent banner allowing visitors to accept or reject cookie categories. It blocks third-party scripts (analytics, marketing, etc.) until the visitor grants consent for each category. Consent choices are stored in a first-party cookie and logged server-side for compliance auditing.
Consent & Compliance
- Consent Category: Essential
- Applicable Regulations: GDPR, CCPA, ePrivacy Directive

CookieYes is consent infrastructure. It must run before other scripts to enforce consent-based script blocking.
Should You Block This Without Consent?
No. CookieYes is a consent management tool that must load unconditionally. It is strictly necessary for managing other scripts' consent requirements. Blocking it would prevent the site from collecting or enforcing user consent choices.
