Is CookieYes GDPR compliant?

ConsentStack classifies CookieYes's trackers as essential (strictly necessary), so its banner does not block them. That is our classification, not a legal ruling. The exemption from prior consent comes from the ePrivacy Directive (Article 5(3)) and covers only what is strictly necessary for a service the visitor asked for, and the GDPR still governs any personal data, such as an IP address, sent to CookieYes. List CookieYes in your cookie policy and privacy notice so visitors know it is there.

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
  • Opt-In Required: No — this is itself a consent management tool

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.
