​
Step 1: Sign Up

  • Create an Account: Sign up at CookieChimp.com.
  • Configure: Access your dashboard to set up your cookie consent preferences.

​
Step 2: Integration

Choose the integration method suitable for your platform:

​
HTML

Add your website’s CookieChimp JS snippet in the <head> tag of your HTML:

<script src="https://cookiechimp.com/widget/abc123.js"></script>
You need to replace abc123 with your website’s unique CookieChimp ID.

​
WordPress

Install the CookieChimp plugin from the WordPress plugin and configure it in your dashboard.

​
Shopify

Add the CookieChimp Shopify app and set it up in your Shopify admin.

​
Step 3: Customization and Testing

  • Customize the appearance and settings of the cookie consent widget from your CookieChimp dashboard.

  • Test to ensure it functions correctly on your site.

  • CookieChimp will automatically start scanning for cookies on your website. You can view these in your CookieChimp dashboard and organize them.

    If you have CookieChimp AI copilot enabled, CookieChimp will automatically fill in the missing information & categorize these cookies for you.

​
Step 4: Block Scripts/Cookies

To ensure compliance with GDPR regulations, it’s crucial not only to display a consent banner but also to actively block all non-essential scripts and cookies until the user has given explicit consent. For comprehensive instructions on how to effectively manage and block scripts and cookies, please refer to our Scripts Management Section.

​
Manual Modal Trigger

To allow users to manage their cookie preferences at any time, add a button with the data attribute data-cc="show-preferencesModal":

<button type="button" data-cc="show-preferencesModal">
  Manage cookie preferences
</button>

​
Troubleshooting

  • If the widget doesn’t display, ensure there are no conflicts with other scripts or styles on your website.
  • Clear your browser cache and cookies, then reload the website.
