Banner integration overview

The integration of the Avacy cookie banner is essential to ensure compliance with privacy regulations and the correct management of user consent. The banner not only informs users about the use of cookies, but preventively blocks profiling scripts until explicit consent is provided. This preventative blocking process is essential to avoid loading scripts that could violate user privacy.

Avacy supports three main methods for embedding the cookie banner into your website:

  • WordPress (plugin): Allows simplified implementation via the dedicated plugin, which automates many of the operations and offers configuration options directly from the WordPress backend.

  • Google Tag Manager (GTM): Allows you to manage banner integration and script blocking via GTM, using Consent Mode and listening to Avacy events to adjust tag behavior.

  • HTML code snippet: Offers maximum flexibility for non-WordPress or GTM-based sites, allowing you to manually integrate the banner by inserting a code snippet into the website header.

NOTE: It is important to note that simply displaying the consent banner on the page is not sufficient to ensure compliance with data protection regulations, such as GDPR or CCPA. To be truly compliant, it is necessary to configure the preventive blocking of cookies and other tracking scripts until the user has expressed his consent. This essential configuration will be covered in detail in later sections of the documentation.
