See what's new in CookieChimp.

A clear record of the features, improvements, and fixes available across the CookieChimp platform.

Drupal Consent API Integration

Drupal sites can now sync CookieChimp choices with consent-aware modules, banner copy can link directly to preferences, and concurrent translations complete more reliably.

New

  • Drupal consent integration: Send each visitor's CookieChimp choices to Drupal COOKiES/cookiesjsr, EU Cookie Compliance, and drupalSettings so consent-aware modules and custom site code can use the same state.
  • Links to consent preferences: Link text in a banner description or footer to #cc-preferences to open the preferences modal directly, including from the banner designer preview and content rendered after page load.

Improvements

  • Reliable concurrent translations: Repeated or simultaneous requests for the same source text and language now reuse the stored translation cleanly, keeping automatic translation workflows moving.

Review and Apply Compliance Fixes

Review compliance changes before applying them across banners, target GPC to selected banners, understand analytics calculations, and act on scan statuses more easily.

New

  • Reviewable compliance fixes: Fix all now previews every supported banner change, collects missing details such as privacy policy URLs, and applies the reviewed updates together while retaining the 24-hour undo option.
  • Per-banner GPC targeting: Apply Global Privacy Control recognition to every banner or select the individual banners that should honour the signal.
  • Quebec language coverage: The regional compliance report now checks whether banners targeting Quebec provide their consent notice in French and explains how to add missing translated copy.

Improvements

  • Transparent analytics calculations: Dashboard cards, charts, country shares, and device breakdowns now explain how each figure is counted. Device totals use unique visitors, while bot inclusion or exclusion is stated wherever it differs.
  • Actionable scan statuses: Queued and running scans explain when their reports will open, timed-out scans update on the page, and unsuccessful scans show a reason with a direct route to start another scan when available.
  • Seamless mobile display: Mobile browser status and toolbar areas now match the CookieChimp page, privacy portal, or error-page background instead of framing the experience with contrasting bands.

Guided Installation and Vendor Blocking

Website setup now pairs platform-specific installation with vendor-blocking guidance, while consent records, compliance reporting, and Google Consent Mode are clearer and more reliable.

New

  • Guided website setup: Choose HTML, Google Tag Manager, Next.js, WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Squarespace, or a single-page app to see focused installation and vendor-blocking steps, including code examples, integration controls, and a route back to scanning for verification.
  • Vendor-level consent details: Each consent record now lists the exact vendors a visitor accepted or rejected, together with the category used for that decision.

Improvements

  • Clearer compliance conclusions: Jurisdictions that pass the regional report's technical checks now show All good, with clearer context that the result is technical guidance rather than a legal determination.
  • Assisted account deletion: When an account requires review before deletion, the Delete Account action now opens support chat so the request can be handled directly.
  • Reliable Google Consent Mode: Consent state remains consistent and update events run once when the CookieChimp widget is loaded more than once on the same page.

Multiple Websites for Every Group

Every group can now add more than one website, the dashboard's Opt-In Rate is more accurate, scan reports show a clearer reminder, and the public API returns clearer error messages.

Improvements

  • Multiple websites per group: Every group can now add more than one website, on any plan.
  • Clearer scan report reminder: Scan reports now show a neutral reminder about reopening the consent modal, since custom links and buttons for managing consent aren't detected by the scan.
  • Accurate Opt-In Rate: The dashboard's Opt-In Rate now excludes bot traffic and visits where no consent was needed, giving a clearer picture of real visitor consent. A new tooltip explains exactly how the rate is calculated.
  • Clearer public API errors: The public API now returns clear, actionable error messages for malformed requests, and the accounts list loads faster.

Preview a Website Scan Before Running One

You can now preview a realistic website scan before running one, and consent banners with longer names duplicate reliably.

New

  • Example website scan: Open a realistic, read-only report from the Scans page to see detected vendors, consent timing, storage items, and vendor import controls before scanning your own website.

Fixes

  • Reliable banner duplication: Consent banners with longer names can now be duplicated successfully, with copied names shortened automatically when needed.

Invoice Payment Emails

Account owners can receive clearer invoice updates with direct links to view an invoice or update billing details.

New

  • Invoice payment emails: Account owners can receive a receipt when an invoice is paid or a clear notification when payment fails, with a direct link to view the invoice or update billing details.

Province-Level Consent Targeting for Canada

Consent banners can now target Canadian provinces and territories, with matching coverage in the regional compliance report.

New

  • Canadian province targeting: Create banners for individual Canadian provinces and territories, including a dedicated Quebec experience and a Canada-wide fallback for visitors whose province cannot be resolved.
  • Canadian compliance coverage: The regional compliance report now evaluates Canadian banner coverage at province level and shows which configured banner applies to each region.

Improvements

  • Visible compliance totals: The sidebar now shows the number of outstanding compliance issues even when the full regional report is not included in the current plan.

Control Which CookieChimp Emails You Receive

Notification emails now include a straightforward unsubscribe flow with a clear confirmation screen.

New

  • Email preferences: CookieChimp notification emails now include an unsubscribe link with a confirmation screen, making it easy to stop non-essential account emails.

See the Domains Connected to Each Scan Result

Scan reports now connect each detected vendor to its associated domains, while clearer Pro tiers apply only to new subscriptions; existing subscriptions are unchanged.

New

  • Vendor domains in scan reports: Each vendor card now lists its associated domains and highlights the domains found during the scan. When auto-blocking is enabled, the report also shows which domains CookieChimp attempts to block before consent.
  • Self-service Pro tiers: New subscriptions can choose the unique-visitor allowance that fits the site and upgrade to Pro directly from the pricing flow. This applies only to new subscriptions; existing subscriptions are unchanged.

Auto-Fix Common Regional Compliance Issues

The regional compliance report can now correct supported banner settings for you, with a 24-hour undo window.

New

  • Compliance auto-fix: Apply supported fixes directly from the regional compliance report, including consent mode, required buttons, preference detail, button prominence, and consent duration settings.
  • Undo for 24 hours: Restore affected banners to their previous settings for up to 24 hours after running an auto-fix.

Fixes

  • Consent rate accuracy: Analytics consent rates now remain within the expected 0–100% range when visitor activity is aggregated.

Percentage Insights in Consent Charts

Consent chart tooltips can now show each value as a percentage of the visible total.

New

  • Percentage chart tooltips: Consent charts can now show each data point as a percentage of the visible total, automatically excluding series you hide from the chart.

React Native Consent Setup

React Native teams now have a guided mobile consent setup covering installation, banners, consent syncing, and configuration.

New

  • React Native consent setup: Configure consent for a React Native app with guided installation, geographic banner selection, online or offline configuration, consent record syncing, and an in-product API reference.

Clearer Pro Pricing

Pro pricing now makes the cost per 100,000 unique visitors and available volume discounts clearer for new subscriptions only; existing subscriptions are unchanged.

Improvements

  • Clearer Pro pricing: Pricing for new Pro subscriptions now shows the cost per 100,000 unique visitors as the allowance changes and points larger sites to available volume discounts. This applies only to new subscriptions; existing subscriptions are unchanged.

Clearer Banner Design Controls

The banner designer now makes layout-specific options clearer, and a sign-up edge case no longer interrupts setup.

Improvements

  • Layout-aware close icon: The close-icon control now appears disabled when the selected banner layout does not support it, so it is clear why the option cannot be changed.

Fixes

  • Sign-up questionnaire: Optional or incomplete questionnaire answers no longer prevent a new user from finishing account setup.

More Detail in Consent Records

Consent records now show what was granted, vendor setup can reuse group knowledge, and logs retain less page-level detail.

New

  • Granted consent details: A visitor record now shows the categories and services granted at the time of the consent decision.
  • Group-aware vendor suggestions: When you configure a vendor, CookieChimp can suggest matching vendor information already used by another website in the same group.

Improvements

  • Privacy-focused consent logs: Consent activity now stores, displays, and exports the website domain rather than the visitor's full page path.
