Cookie consent management
Your cookie banner is the most visible part of your compliance programme
Every visitor sees it. Regulators check it first. CNIL fined Google €150M and Amazon €35M for cookie consent failures — not because they lacked a banner, but because the banner didn't work properly. Acompli scans your domains, classifies every cookie, blocks scripts before consent, and connects every consent record back to your DPIAs, RoPA and data map. One platform. No silos.
Standalone CMP vs. integrated compliance
Most organisations buy a cookie consent tool that operates in isolation — disconnected from their DPIA programme, risk register and data map. When the regulator asks how consent relates to your processing activities, the answer is a blank stare.
Standalone CMP
- Consent records live in a separate dashboard
- No link between cookies and processing activities
- RoPA still lists “cookies” as a line item with no detail
- Regulator asks for proof — you export from two systems
- Banner changes need a developer or agency
- Costs €200–600/mo on top of your compliance stack
Acompli
- Consent records feed directly into your compliance programme
- Every cookie links to a processing activity in your data map
- RoPA entries auto-reference consent categories and legal bases
- One export, one audit trail, one platform
- Visual editor — marketing team publishes without developers
- Included with your Acompli subscription at no extra cost
How it works
One script tag. One afternoon. Fully compliant.
Add one line to your site. Acompli handles the rest — scanning, classification, blocking and consent collection — so you stop worrying about your banner and start proving compliance.
1. Discover what's on your site
Automated scanning catalogues every cookie, pixel and tracker across your domains. New cookies are flagged before visitors encounter them. You see exactly what changed between scans.
2. Classify and block automatically
Common cookies are categorised instantly. AI handles the rest — you review and approve. Non-essential scripts stay blocked until the visitor consents. No cookies before the choice.
3. Prove it to anyone who asks
Every consent action generates a tamper-proof receipt — what the visitor chose, when, and which banner version they saw. Records flow into your RoPA and data map automatically.
The questions you're actually asking
“Will the regulator find something wrong?”
Scripts are blocked before the first cookie is set — this is what regulators actually test for. Automated compliance checks across GDPR, CCPA and LGPD flag issues before an auditor does. Every action has a full audit trail. Every consent record links back to the banner version that was shown.
“Can my team manage this without developers?”
A visual banner editor with templates and responsive preview means marketing can publish without writing code. One script tag is the entire deployment. Approval workflows make sure nothing goes live by accident.
“We operate across multiple countries”
Visitors in the EU see opt-in banners. Visitors in California see opt-out. The right behaviour for each jurisdiction, automatically. Multi-language support and cross-domain sync mean you manage everything from one dashboard, however many sites and markets you have.
“Does it work with our existing tools?”
Google Consent Mode v2 is handled automatically — required since March 2024 for full measurement data in the EEA and UK. IAB TCF 2.2 works out of the box. Consent state integrates with Google Tag Manager, Segment and your existing analytics stack.
Common questions
How does this compare to OneTrust, Cookiebot or TrustArc?
Same enterprise capabilities — scanning, classification, script blocking, geo-targeting, consent receipts, audit trails — but integrated with your wider GDPR compliance programme. Consent records connect to your DPIAs, risk register, RoPA and data map. And cookie consent is included in your Acompli subscription, not a separate €200–600/mo bill.
How long does setup take?
Add one script tag to your site. Acompli scans your domains, classifies what it finds, and presents a compliant banner — typically within an afternoon. Most teams are live the same day.
What happens when a regulator asks for proof?
Every consent record includes what the visitor chose, when, which banner version they saw, and their location. Export everything in one click. Because consent records are connected to your RoPA and data map, you can show the full picture — not just the banner, but how consent relates to your processing activities.
Cookie consent is included in every Acompli plan
No separate CMP subscription. No extra cost. Scanning, classification, banners, script blocking, geo-targeting, consent records and audit trails — all connected to your compliance programme in one platform.
