PolicyDesk is a professional-grade cookie consent plugin for WordPress that helps you implement a clear cookie notice experience for GDPR/CCPA and other privacy requirements.
It includes multiple banner layouts (Banner, Box, Modal), a preferences modal for category-based choices (when enabled), a basic CCPA “Do not sell or share my personal information” option, and consent logging stored in cookies and your WordPress database.
Many cookie notice plugins stop at a simple banner. PolicyDesk focuses on flexible layouts, an accessible preference center, and admin tools to configure how consent is collected and stored. Additional advanced features may be available in PolicyDesk Pro (see the Premium Features section below).

</ul>
Cookie Notice & Consent aims to help you comply with local privacy laws like GDPR/DSGVO. It does not offer a one-click solution though. Please set up your website properly and carefully to comply with applicable laws.
<h4>Developer focus</h4>
Please note that Cookie Notice & Consent is generally geared towards developers and technically savvy site administrators. Although it does provide pre-made themes, the plugin does not provide separate options for individual design aspects, and does not plan to provide those in the future. It is up to the developer/administrator to add further styling to match the theme using CSS.
This plugin does not add any branding (neither visually nor textually), top-level admin menu items or user-facing indicators. It aims to be usable in client projects by blending in with WordPress core appearance, naming and settings. Settings screens are visible to administrator level users only.
<h4>What this plugin does not provide</h4>
<ul>
<li>Beyond the pre-made, as-is themes, this plugin does not offer styling options via the settings screen (please contact your webdev for further design customization)</li>
<li>This plugin does not provide scanning for, detecting or automatic blocking content like embeds, scripts or cookies</li>
</ul>
<h4>Shortcodes and functions</h4>
This plugin currently provides the following shortcodes and public functions:
<ul>
<li>Shortcode [revoke_cookie_consent]: Outputs a revoke consent button that clears the consent cookie</li>
<li>Shortcode [cookie_consent_status]: Outputs a formatted string indicating the users consent choice</li>
<li>Function <code>is_cookie_consent_set()</code>: Returns whether the consent has been set by the user</li>
<li>Function <code>is_cookie_category_accepted( $category )</code>: Returns whether the given cookie category has been accepted by the user (valid values: essential, functional, marketing)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Disclaimer</h4>
This plugin does not represent legal advice and assumes no liability whatsoever. Please obtain proper advice from real lawyers if in doubt.
