Cookie consent that doesn't weigh more than your actual content.
A GDPR-compliant cookie banner under 10KB. Three buttons: accept, reject, configure. Blocks third-party scripts until the user decides. No page builder. No setup wizard. No 47 settings.
Cookie plugins shouldn’t need their own cookie policy.
You install a cookie consent plugin to comply with GDPR. It loads 200KB of JavaScript, three font files, a stylesheet, and a dashboard with tabs you’ll never open. It asks you to “scan your site for cookies” and then tries to sell you a monthly subscription to “stay compliant”.
All you needed was a banner with three buttons and a way to block Google Analytics until the user clicks Accept.
Simple Cookie Consent does that. One banner. Three buttons. Script blocking. Under 10KB total. Configure it in 2 minutes, forget about it, move on with your life.

This is not a legal compliance platform.
We don’t scan your site, we don’t generate a cookie policy for you, and we don’t certify that you’re “GDPR compliant”. That’s a legal question, not a plugin question. What we do is give you the technical tool to block scripts and collect consent. Your lawyer handles the rest.
FAQ
Does it work with Google Analytics 4?
Yes. Add your GA4 snippet to the “Analytics” category and it won’t load until the user accepts analytics cookies.
Can I customize the banner text?
Yes. Every string is editable from the admin: headline, button labels, category descriptions.
Does it support “reject all” properly?
Yes. Reject means reject — no scripts in blocked categories will load. Not “reject but we’ll track you anyway with essential cookies”.
Is it really GDPR compliant?
The plugin provides the technical mechanism for consent. Legal compliance depends on your full setup — privacy policy, data processing agreements, etc. Consult a lawyer for that.
