Get Cookies Policy Notification Bar (v4.4.3)

Introduction

Site Verification, Site Management, Alerts & Awareness, Cookie Control, GDPR

The #1 GDPR and Cookie Extension for Joomla!
Ensure full compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and PECR in just minutes. The Cookies Policy Notification Bar by Web357 is a lightweight, fully customizable solution that helps you build user trust, manage cookie preferences, and stay legally compliant, without compromising website performance. It’s fully aligned with the latest data privacy regulations, including accessibility (WCAG), geo-targeted consent (via GeoIP), and full support for Google Consent Mode v2.

This extension goes beyond cookie banners. It gives you full control over how cookies and third-party scripts behave on your Joomla! site—based on real user choices. Block tracking scripts until consent is given, manage cookie categories with ease, and integrate effortlessly with Google Consent Mode v2.

Designed for businesses that take privacy seriously, it's your all-in-one solution to simplify compliance and protect your users' trust.

Why Choose Cookies Policy Notification Bar?

🔒 100% GDPR, CCPA, and PECR Compliant
Avoid fines and stay aligned with global data protection laws—no legal guesswork needed.

⚡ Fast & Optimized for Performance
Lightweight architecture ensures your Joomla! site remains fast and responsive.

🎨 Fully Customizable Cookie Banner
Easily adapt texts, colors, and positioning to match your brand’s identity.

📊 Google Consent Mode & Analytics Integration
Maintain accurate tracking while respecting each visitor’s privacy preferences.

🌍 Multilingual & Geo-Targeted Display
Automatically show the right banner in the right language—based on user location.

Complete Control, Built-In Flexibility

The Cookies Policy Notification Bar is not just another Joomla! GDPR plugin—it's a robust and flexible consent management solution designed for performance and ease of use.

Create and manage cookie categories such as Necessary, Analytics, Marketing, or Preferences. You can even define your own. Users can adjust their settings anytime, and delete cookies directly from their browser using shortcode functionality.

Consent is logged automatically, with timestamp and IP address, ensuring GDPR and PECR compliance. Operating in stricter regions? Disable IP logging with a single click.

Customize how and where the banner appears. Choose from 7 display positions, show or hide it for logged-in users, or target specific pages only. With GeoIP2 integration, the banner only shows in regions where it’s legally required.

Third-party scripts are fully controlled. Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, and others are blocked by default and only loaded after user consent. Scripts are assigned to cookie categories and loaded dynamically.

Add a cookie consent table via shortcode, giving users full visibility into stored cookies. You can also define custom expiration rules and allow users to revisit or change their consent anytime.

Link to your privacy policy using a custom URL, Joomla! menu item, or modal window—fully translatable and flexible for multilingual sites.

Developer-friendly by design, the extension allows custom CSS and JavaScript, plus a debugging mode for safe testing.

You can also enable animations, control how long the banner stays visible, and reduce repeat display frequency—so it's effective without becoming intrusive.
