Everything it does — today

CookieForever is in beta. This page lists what works now, and nothing that is still on the drawing board.

Scanning

Find every cookie, and who set it

  • Pages are opened in a real browser with your scripts running, so cookies set by tags and third parties are found too.

  • Pages are visited as someone who has not answered the banner and as someone who has accepted, so you see what each of them gets.

  • Each cookie is recorded with the page and the script or response that set it — the answer to "where does this come from?".

  • Sites are scanned again on a schedule, so a tool added last week shows up without anyone remembering to ask.

Classification

The right category, decided once

  • Known cookies are recognised from a catalogue we maintain, and from the tags that set them.

  • Cookies nobody recognises go on a list for you to place. A person decides; a guess never becomes the answer on its own.

  • Your classification of a cookie beats every other for your sites.

Cookie policy

A policy that matches the site

  • The policy lists the cookies actually found, in the categories you approved.

  • Every version is kept, with a review step before it is published, so you can show what it said and when.

  • Link to it or embed it. It is available in English, Danish, German, Norwegian and Swedish.

Enforcement

Scripts wait for a yes

  • It holds back the tags it recognises — from our library of trackers and your own rules — until their category is granted.

  • When consent is withdrawn, the cookies those tags set are cleared.

  • Google Consent Mode signals follow the visitor's choice, and Global Privacy Control can be honoured.

Documentation

Proof, when someone asks

  • Each answer is stored with a timestamp and the banner version it was given on.

  • Visitors can see, change and withdraw their consent from your cookie policy page.

  • If the snippet disappears from a site, you are told — before a visitor finds out.
