Your cookie popup should help visitors choose and then get out of their way. Set it up around the tools your website actually uses. Installing a banner alone does not cover every privacy duty.
Before you install
List optional analytics, advertising, video, and chat tools. Find where each is added. Check whether your website builder permits custom scripts on your current plan. Pick one person to own future tag changes.
Install and connect
Copy the ConsentPop installation snippet from your own dashboard. Use the site's own key. Then connect optional scripts to the right category using the setup instructions. A tool already injected by a plugin will need its own consent setup.
Make the popup usable
Read it on a small screen. Use the keyboard to reach the buttons and preferences. Check that the notice does not hide the only way to navigate the site. Keep your privacy and cookie links easy to find.
Run a full choice test
Test before a choice, rejection, partial choice, acceptance, and reload. Reopen preferences and withdraw a choice. Save screenshots and network observations. The audit guide explains what to record.
Keep the limits clear
ConsentPop provides settings, choices, and records. Your team still needs to connect new tools and maintain accurate privacy information. Background checks have coverage and usage limits. They do not watch every page at every moment.
For legal requirements, start with the EDPB's consent guidance and review the rules for your business.
