Cookie Consent Without Extra Accounts

VideoWhisper Light Cookie Consent keeps consent handling inside WordPress. It does not require an external account, does not add telemetry, and avoids intrusive vendor branding while giving site owners practical controls for common WordPress plugin stacks.

Local-first
Consent records, cookie declarations, and configuration stay on your WordPress site. The plugin is designed for transparent consent management without outsourcing the visitor experience to a third-party dashboard.
WordPress-aware
Interoperates with the WP Consent API and includes presets for Google Site Kit, WooCommerce, Jetpack, and VideoWhisper plugin integrations so common services can be mapped faster.
Developer controls
Use script and iframe gating APIs to delay optional embeds and tracking until the required consent category is granted. Maintain a cookie registry and public declaration for visitors and automated agents.

What It Covers

Cookie registry and declaration
Document cookies by category, purpose, provider, duration, and source so visitors can understand what the site uses.

Consent records
Store consent choices locally for auditing and troubleshooting without adding an external consent account.

Script and iframe gating
Gate optional scripts, analytics, marketing tags, embeds, and iframes until the matching consent state is available.

Integration presets
Start from presets for Google Site Kit, WooCommerce, Jetpack, and VideoWhisper plugins, then adjust declarations for the exact site configuration.

AI-friendly policy endpoints
Expose machine-readable cookie policy data that AI agents can retrieve, summarize, and cite. Agentic Optimization integration helps make the consent policy discoverable alongside other agent-facing site documents.

Compliance Notes

Light Cookie Consent is a technical WordPress consent and disclosure tool, not legal advice. Site owners remain responsible for configuring categories, declarations, blocking rules, legal text, and regional behavior for their own use case.

The plugin is not a Google-certified TCF CMP. Sites that need personalized AdSense, Ad Manager, or AdMob ads in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland should use a certified CMP that meets Google’s requirements for those products and regions.
