How to configure your cookie manager

Enzuzo's cookie manager allows users to tailor their browsing experience to their liking. Users can select what services they want to allow before accepting or declining the cookie consent banner.

Your users are able to access your cookie manager from your cookie banner by clicking the link Manage Cookies. The cookie manager will then pop-up and your visitor can choose their preferences.

The four cookie categories mentioned throughout this article—functional, analytics, marketing, and preferences—refer to different types of cookies used for website tracking and user data collection. Here's a brief rundown of each type:

These cookies are necessary for the basic functioning of a website. They enable core features such as page navigation, secure areas, and user authentication. Functional cookies typically remember user preferences, settings, and choices to provide a more personalized and seamless browsing experience.

Analytics cookies gather information about how visitors interact with a website. They help website owners understand which pages are most popular, how long visitors spend on each page, and how often they visit. This information is used to improve the website's performance and overall user experience.

Marketing cookies are used to track users' online behavior and interests to deliver personalized advertisements and marketing campaigns. These cookies collect data such as browsing habits, visited websites, and clicked links. Marketing cookies enable advertisers to target specific audiences and measure the effectiveness of their marketing efforts.

Preferences cookies store information about users' choices and preferences on a website. They remember settings such as language preference, font size, region, or customized layout options. Preferences cookies ensure that users' selected preferences are maintained during subsequent visits, providing a more tailored experience.

With the Scan My Domain feature, you can scan your domain for existing scripts and categorize them within the Enzuzo App. Visit Settings > Company Details to add your "Website URL".

To manually add a new service. In this case, the script will not be injected into the website itself depending on whether or not the user accepts or declines the use of cookies.

In the “Add Service” section, please specify the cookie category (Functional, Analytics, Marketing or Preferences), the name of the service and a description.

This is the code that will be loaded when the user has consented (either by pushing the Accept button or by default if configured as an opt-out). This code is normally run once per page refresh. To run specific code when the user consents/declines, use these two sections below. This section is used only to load the (usually) external code of the service.

Users can change their cookie preferences at any time. If you specify the Consent Code here, the service will know that the user has given consent.

Users can change their cookie preferences at any time. By specifying the Decline Code here, you can signal that a user has declined to participate in your service.

Your newly added service will now be shown on the rendered cookie manager section.

In this case, the cookie manager has no control over the external script but we want to specify consent or decline code to run depending on what the user does.

In the “Add Service” section, please specify the cookie category (Functional, Analytics, Marketing or Preferences), the name of the service and a description.

You can specify a regular expression or glob pattern to match any ‘src’ scripts you have here.

Users can change their cookie preferences at any time. If you specify the Consent Code here, the service will know that the user has given consent.

Users can change their cookie preferences at any time. By specifying the Decline Code here, you can signal that a user has declined to participate in your service.

Any existing scripts that match this pattern will now be shown on the rendered cookie manager like in the screenshot below.

Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a mechanism to allow Internet users to notify businesses of their privacy preferences. Please visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org/ for more information.

Enable support for the user browser’s GPC signal, if detected. Note: Additional support on the website is required. See below for details.

Website Server: In order for a website to enable GPC, a file named /.wellknown/gpc.json must be created from the base of your website with the following content:

Cookie Banner: In the Cookie Manager settings, GPC support must be enabled.

By default, if a GPC signal is detected we will not show the cookie banner. Enabling this will show the Cookie Banner regardless.

If the cookie banner is shown, this is the additional text that would show along with the standard Cookie Banner text. We've created a default GPC notice, but you can edit the text if you prefer to change the language.

Edit the button text for the GPC cookie banner notice.

If a GPC signal is detected, the following code will automatically run.

Hide Powered by Enzuzo Logo: Toggle this on if you want to hide the Enzuzo branding on the Cookie Manager. Note: Hiding the logo is only available on a paid plan.

Show Categories Only: Toggle this section OFF to show the Categories on your Cookie Manager. All of your Services will display within the Manager and your visitors will be able to see exactly what they are consenting to.

The auto blocking feature is an advanced capability that allows you to configure the cookie banner to automatically block other scripts. To enable the feature, add the auto-blocking="true" attribute to the <script src ...> tag that loads the cookie banner. Here is a test configuration. Make sure to replace YOUR_UUID_GOES_HERE with your account's UUID and look at the console logs to observe the behaviour. The example will load the cookie banner in auto blocking mode, load a test script (sends "hello world" to console), and add code for different categories.
