Overview

Termly is a privacy compliance platform that generates privacy policies, cookie policies, and consent banners. Its scripts display customizable consent banners on websites and record visitor consent choices. The platform auto-generates compliant legal documents based on jurisdiction and data collection practices.

What This Script Does

  • Displays a cookie consent banner to site visitors based on their jurisdiction
  • Records and stores visitor consent choices (accept, reject, category preferences)
  • Sets a cookie to remember the visitor's consent state across sessions
  • Scans the site for cookies and categorizes them for the cookie policy
  • Loads dynamically generated privacy policy and cookie policy content

Consent & Compliance

  • Category: Essential
  • GDPR: Termly itself is a compliance tool that helps sites meet GDPR requirements. The consent management cookie is exempt from consent requirements as it is necessary for recording consent preferences.
  • CCPA: Supports Do Not Sell/Share compliance by providing opt-out mechanisms.
  • ePrivacy: The consent preference cookie is considered strictly necessary under ePrivacy rules.

Should You Block This Without Consent?

No. Termly is a consent management tool that must load before other scripts to collect consent preferences. Blocking it would prevent the site from meeting its legal obligations under GDPR, CCPA, and ePrivacy regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Termly itself require cookie consent?

No, Termly generally does not require separate cookie consent. It is a privacy compliance platform that displays consent banners and records visitor consent choices. Its own cookie stores the visitor's consent state, which is considered essential for delivering the consent management function and is typically exempt from consent requirements.

What cookies and scripts does Termly use?

Termly loads a script that displays a cookie consent banner based on visitor jurisdiction, records consent choices, and sets a cookie to remember consent state across sessions. It also scans the site to categorize other cookies present. The consent state cookie is first-party and persists to prevent repeated consent prompts on return visits.

How does ConsentStack interact with Termly?

ConsentStack detects Termly consent banner scripts and classifies them as essential. Since Termly serves a consent management function, ConsentStack allows it to load without requiring prior consent. Site operators using ConsentStack may want to evaluate whether running two consent management tools simultaneously creates conflicts.
