ConsentLab provides a solution for adding a GDPR- and CNIL-compliant cookie consent banner to WordPress sites. It addresses the lack of native compliance features in WordPress and popular page builders by offering a lightweight consent management platform (CMP) that can be installed without a paid plugin or technical expertise. The tool is designed for European small and medium-sized businesses (TPE/PME) seeking straightforward regulatory compliance for their websites.
The service operates via a 12 kB JavaScript snippet that is inserted into the site's <head section, typically using a free WordPress plugin such as Insert Headers and Footers or WPCode, or by editing a child theme. This snippet is compatible with all WordPress themes and builders, including Astra, GeneratePress, Divi, and Elementor. ConsentLab natively supports Google Consent Mode v2, automatically emitting the four required signals (ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization) and is compatible with platforms like Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, and Floodlight. The script loads asynchronously and is designed to have a minimal impact on site performance, with measured LCP impact under 20 milliseconds and no reliance on jQuery or WordPress dependencies.
A key feature is the timestamped proof of consent: every user choice is recorded with a timestamp, CMP version, and consent purposes, and this data is exportable as a CSV file for regulatory review. ConsentLab detects the page language automatically but also allows manual language selection via a data attribute. The tool is suitable for multilingual WordPress sites and works across all hosting providers. The installation process is intended to take about ten minutes and requires no technical skills.
ConsentLab is hosted in France and offers a free plan for up to 5,000 sessions per month with unlimited domains and no credit card required. The platform is promoted as a simple and cost-effective alternative to premium plugins, aiming to help WordPress site owners achieve regulatory compliance efficiently.
