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.
Is Termly GDPR compliant?
Termly's trackers are classified as essential (strictly necessary), so they are generally exempt from prior consent under the GDPR. You should still list them in your cookie policy and privacy notice so visitors know they are there.
