About Cookie-Script.com
From the official readme · v1.4.3Description
CookieScript helps your WordPress site meet privacy requirements like GDPR, CPRA, PIPEDA and more. It adds a cookie banner to your site—no need to edit files or write any code yourself.
You can use it right after installing, even without a CookieScript account. Later on, if you want to adjust how the banner looks or behaves, you can link an account to unlock more options.
The plugin works with Google Consent Mode v2 and the WP Consent API, and can block third-party cookies until a visitor gives permission. It keeps your site compliant without interfering with tools like Google Analytics or ads.
