The WordPress add-on connects your site to tarteaucitron.io Pro, a consent management platform for cookies and third-party services. You configure the consent experience and supported integrations through an online dashboard; users make or change their choices in the banner and preferences panel.

These controls can support a GDPR or RGPD process. Overall compliance also depends on your site configuration, the services you use, and the information you provide to visitors.

Visitor choices and service behavior

Show a customizable cookie banner with a dedicated preferences panel. Visitors can accept all services, reject all services, or manage consent for individual services. They can reopen the panel later to review or change their choices. When explicit consent is configured, supported services that require consent remain blocked until permission is granted.

Supported services and Google tags

Automatic detection can simplify setup for supported analytics, advertising, and embedded content integrations. It does not cover every script: custom scripts and unsupported integrations may need additional configuration. Check your site to confirm that services are detected and behave as expected before and after consent.

Google Consent Mode v2

The service supports Google Consent Mode v2 to communicate user choices to compatible Google tags. Configure the consent settings for your Google integrations and check their behavior with your analytics and advertising setup. Consent Mode complements consent collection; it does not replace the banner or correct tag configuration.

Dashboard and accessibility settings

Use the online dashboard to personalize banner and button colors, edit visitor-facing text, configure consent options and service settings, and preview changes. Accessibility-oriented settings include the panel’s position in the document and a link visitors can use to reopen consent preferences. Keep text readable, use sufficient color contrast, and make controls usable when adapting the banner.

Consent statistics

View consent statistics in the dashboard to see how visitors interact with the choices available on your configured site.

Setup and service terms

1. In the WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New Plugin, search for tarteaucitron.io, then install and activate the plugin.
2. Open Settings > tarteaucitron.io and follow the instructions to connect the website to the service.
3. Use the online dashboard to configure the banner, visitor-facing text, and consent settings.
4. If you use Google Consent Mode v2, configure the settings for your Google integrations.
5. Test the live site before consent, after acceptance, and after rejection.

You can also install the plugin by uploading its folder to /wp-content/add-ons/ and activating it from the Plugins screen. The service includes a 7-day trial and requires a paid license after the trial. The separate tarteaucitron.js library is free and open source for manual integration; its availability does not include the Pro service with this plugin.
