Proof kept for each choice

Your visitors choose. Your ads keep counting.

When a visitor says yes, Google Analytics and Google Ads work as before. When they say no, no tracking cookies are stored, and Google receives only anonymous signals that it uses to estimate your results.

Why now · the rules changed

Every cookie banner now has three things to get right

The lawAsk first, and make “no” as easy as “yes”

Since January 2022, Czech law requires consent before analytics or advertising cookies are stored. Visitors must be able to refuse as easily as they accept.

GooglePass each visitor's choice to Google

Since March 2024, Google expects advertisers with visitors in the EU to use Consent Mode v2. Without it, Google Ads can lose remarketing audiences and conversion data.

ProofShow what each visitor agreed to

If a visitor or the data protection authority asks, you need to show what someone chose and what your banner said at the time.

What you get

One banner that takes care of all three

Visitors see a short banner. Anyone who wants detail opens the settings and sees every service and cookie, grouped by purpose.

What Google receives right nowBefore any choice

Ad data sent to GoogleDenied

Try it. Choose in the banner above, or open the settings and switch categories on and off. Google Analytics and Google Ads read these signals before they store anything.

VisitorsA choice people understand

Accept all, reject all, or choose by category. Each category lists its services and their cookies.

GoogleYour Google tools keep working

Consent Mode v2 is built in. Google Analytics and Google Ads receive every choice the moment it is made.

ProofA record of every choice

Each choice is saved with the banner texts the visitor saw, and kept for three years in the EU.

Questions

What website owners ask us

Do I need to change my website myself?+

No. We add OrePretzel to your website for you, whatever it is built with.

Will Google Analytics and Google Ads keep working?+

Yes. With consent they work as before. Without consent, Google receives anonymous signals without cookies and estimates your results from them.

An agency runs our Google Tag Manager. Is that a problem?+

No. We send them a precise list of changes and check their work before we switch the banner on.

We already have a cookie banner.+

We'll help you migrate. We carry your current setup over to OrePretzel and take care of the switch.

Where is the consent data kept?+

In the EU, for three years by default. It contains no names and no IP addresses.

Can visitors change their mind?+

Yes, at any time, through the Cookie settings link in your footer. When they turn something off, its cookies are deleted.
