About PrivacyHub Cookie Consent

From the official readme · v3.3.10

Description

PrivacyHub Cookie Consent connects your WordPress site to the PrivacyHub consent platform.

It helps site owners deploy and manage consent banners, block non-essential scripts until consent is granted, and send Google Consent Mode v2 signals.

Supported banner and framework modes include:

  • Simple banner
  • Enhanced banner
  • IAB TCF for GDPR and ePrivacy use cases
  • US GPP banner for US state privacy use cases

PrivacyHub can be configured for websites operating in or targeting regions such as:

  • European Union and EEA
  • United Kingdom
  • Switzerland
  • United States
  • Canada
  • Brazil
  • South Africa
  • Australia
  • Singapore
  • Middle East deployments using PrivacyHub regional configurations

Key features:

  • Loads your configured PrivacyHub banner using your Website ID
  • Block-first handling for common analytics, marketing, and preferences scripts
  • Google Consent Mode v2 default and update signaling
  • Optional GA4 and GTM runtime loading after consent
  • Admin settings page for Website ID, script blocking, and Google Consent Mode configuration

External services

This plugin connects to external services to load the consent runtime and, when configured by the site owner, send Google Consent Mode v2 signals and load Google tags after consent.

It may contact:

  • https://api.privacyhub.ai/functions/v1/cookie-consent-script
  • https://api.privacyhub.ai/functions/v1/ph (optional thin loader, when enabled by integrators)
  • https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js (when a GA4 Measurement ID is configured and analytics consent is granted)
  • https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js (when a GTM Container ID is configured and eligible consent is granted)

What the services are used for:

  • Retrieve and render the configured PrivacyHub consent banner for the current Website ID
  • Apply configured consent behavior for the active site and region setup
  • Process consent-related frontend runtime behavior configured in PrivacyHub
  • Initialize Google Consent Mode v2 defaults and updates
  • Load GA4 or GTM only after the relevant consent state allows it

When they are called:

  • On frontend page loads when the plugin is enabled and a Website ID is configured
  • After consent is granted, if GA4 and/or GTM IDs are configured by the site owner

What is sent:

  • The configured Website ID in the PrivacyHub script request query string
  • Standard browser request metadata automatically sent by the site visitor’s browser to the destination host
  • Google tag requests generated by the site owner’s configured GA4 or GTM implementation after consent

Service providers:

  • PrivacyHub
  • Google

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a PrivacyHub account?

Yes. You need a PrivacyHub account and Website ID to load the banner.

Does the plugin work without the PrivacyHub service?

No. The plugin depends on the PrivacyHub service endpoint to load the consent runtime and banner configuration.

Does this plugin reload the page after consent?

No. Consent updates are handled in-page. Allowed scripts are released without forcing a page reload.

Does it support Google Consent Mode v2?

Yes. The plugin can initialize default GCM signals and apply consent updates when consent changes.

Can I use GTM and GA4?

Yes. Configure either or both based on your implementation design.

Which banner modes can this plugin deliver?

PrivacyHub supports Simple, Enhanced, IAB TCF, and US GPP configurations. The active banner depends on the region and setup defined in PrivacyHub for the current Website ID.

Which privacy regions can it support?

It is designed for multi-region deployments, including EU/EEA, UK, Switzerland, US state privacy flows, and other supported PrivacyHub regional configurations.

What happens if I leave Website ID empty?

The plugin will stay active in WordPress, but it will not load the frontend consent banner.

Will this block scripts before consent?

Yes. When script blocking is enabled, the plugin uses a block-first approach for common analytics, marketing, and preferences scripts until consent allows them.

Is it multisite compatible?

It can be used in WordPress multisite environments, but each site should be configured with the correct PrivacyHub Website ID and settings.

Can I use one product for EU and US consent flows?

Yes. PrivacyHub can serve different banner modes depending on the configured region and setup.

Where do I register for PrivacyHub?

You can register at https://www.privacyhub.ai/register.
