Plugin Description

GoConsent — privacy compliance for WordPress. Cookies, policies, laws and scans in one plugin, with one setup that works in every US state.

Privacy laws now reach small businesses. California, Colorado, Texas, Virginia, Oregon and more than a dozen other states require clear consent choices, an opt-out for targeted advertising, a respected Global Privacy Control signal and an up-to-date privacy policy. Lawsuits over tracking pixels and chat tools are growing every year. GoConsent handles all of it from one screen, and tells you in plain English what is left to fix.

Cookie consent banner that blocks trackers before consent

• Equal Accept All and Reject All buttons, with category switches right on the banner and a “Your Privacy Choices” panel for analytics, advertising, and maps and videos.
• Full cookie declaration. Every cookie and tracker the scan finds, with provider, purpose, type and expiry, listed by category for visitors and on your Cookie Policy page ([goconsent_cookie_table]).
• Consent receipt and privacy button. Visitors see their Consent ID and can reopen their choices from a floating GoConsent shield on any page.
• Real blocking, not just a notice. Google Analytics, Google Ads, Meta Pixel, TikTok, LinkedIn, Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar and other tags wait until the visitor agrees. Scripts that other plugins add later are held too.
• Google Consent Mode v2 with every signal set to “denied” until consent.
• Global Privacy Control (GPC) honored automatically, as California, Colorado and other states require.
• Click-to-load Google Maps, Street View, YouTube and Vimeo, so a first visit makes no calls to Google.
• Self-hosted Google Fonts. Fonts are copied to your server, so visitors never contact Google.
• Fast and cache-friendly. Works with page caching and loads a small script.

Cookie scanner and compliance report

• Daily cookie and tracker scan of your own pages finds tracking tags, pixels, embeds and unknown scripts, and shows which plugin, theme or page adds each one.
• Compliance score with plain-English issues, sorted by what the law requires for your business and what is only best practice.
• One-click fixes, plus suggested privacy policy wording you can copy or add to your policy.
• Email alerts when a new critical issue appears.

Privacy policy generator and policy pages

• Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and Accessibility Statement, written from your settings and your latest scan, with the services your site actually uses.
• Works with your editor: the block editor, the classic editor, Elementor and Beaver Builder.
• Safe updates. GoConsent updates only its own sections, keeps your edits, and lets you undo any change.
• Dynamic shortcodes keep your business name, website address, contact form link and “last updated” date current.

Privacy laws in plain English

• Which laws apply to you, based on where your customers are, your size and your industry: CCPA/CPRA (California), CalOPPA, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Virginia, plus Washington’s My Health My Data Act, COPPA, GLBA, GDPR, UK GDPR and PIPEDA.
• Laws coming soon (such as Oklahoma, Louisiana, Alabama and Vermont) are flagged before they start.
• Industry checks for health, kids, real estate, restaurants and finance.

Cookie-free traffic stats and proof of consent

• Visitors, pages, sources, devices and UTM campaigns, counted on your own server with no cookies and no stored IP addresses, so you keep seeing traffic even when visitors reject analytics.
• Proof of consent for every choice: a random consent ID, time, policy version and anonymized IP, kept 24 months and downloadable as CSV.

GoConsent Pro

Pro adds more policy pages (Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy, Notice of Financial Incentive, Children’s Privacy Policy, SMS Terms and Terms of Use).

GoConsent is a compliance tool, not legal advice. Have a lawyer review your policies.

External services

GoConsent makes no outside requests on activation, and none until an administrator accepts its terms.

• Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com, fonts.gstatic.com) — optional, off by default. Only when you turn on Host Google Fonts on this site (Consent tab), and only for Google Fonts your theme or plugins already load, your server downloads those font files once and GoConsent serves them from your own site, so visitors’ browsers never contact Google. The request contains the font stylesheet address and no visitor or site data. Google’s terms: https://policies.google.com/terms and privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Everything else stays on your site:

• The scanner only requests pages of your own site: once a day after the terms are accepted, or when you click Scan now.
• Maps and videos (Google Maps, YouTube, Vimeo) are your site’s own embeds. GoConsent adds none; it holds them until the visitor allows them, then the visitor’s browser loads them as it normally would.
• Traffic statistics and consent records are stored in your own database and are never sent anywhere.

Developer notes

• JavaScript API: GoConsent.open(), GoConsent.get(), GoConsent.loadScript( src, attrs, onload ), GoConsent.onChange( callback ).
• Events: goconsent:change on document; goconsent_update in the dataLayer.
• Filters: goconsent_signatures, goconsent_scan_urls, goconsent_issues, goconsent_law_rules, goconsent_industries, goconsent_render_footer_link, goconsent_filter_page, goconsent_alert_recipients, goconsent_visitor_ip.
• Action: goconsent_loaded.

Third-party assets

GoConsent includes California’s official privacy opt-out icon (assets/img/ca-privacy-options.svg), unchanged. It is published by the California Attorney General for businesses to use on their websites with a “Your Privacy Choices” link, as the California Consumer Privacy Act regulations require: https://oag.ca.gov/privacy/ccpa/icons-download. It is loaded from your own site, never from outside servers.
