Cookie Policy Generator
List the cookies your website sets – one line each with name, provider, category, purpose and duration – and get a cookie policy with a table per category: strictly necessary, preferences, analytics and marketing. The policy explains what cookies are, whether you ask for consent before non-essential cookies, how visitors can change their choice through your cookie settings link and their browser, and where to find your privacy policy. Category names such as “statistics” or “advertising” are recognised automatically.

Cookie Policy Generator FAQ
Is this legal advice?
No. It is a template, may need legal review, and should be checked by a qualified lawyer for your country and business before you publish it.
Which cookies need consent?
In the EU and UK, all cookies except those strictly necessary for a service the user asked for – analytics and marketing cookies almost always need prior consent.
How do I find my cookies?
Use the website cookie checker on this site for cookies set by the server, and your browser’s developer tools (Application → Cookies) after accepting all cookies for those set by scripts.
How often should I update it?
Whenever you add or remove a plugin, tag or embed, and at least once a year.
A policy that matches reality
A cookie policy is only useful if it lists the cookies your site really sets. Scripts such as analytics, chat widgets, video embeds and advertising tags each add their own cookies, so check your site after every change.
Important: the result is a template, may need legal review, and is not legal advice. The generator only knows what you tell it, cannot check what your website really does, and laws differ between countries and change over time. Have the text reviewed by a qualified lawyer before you publish it, especially if you handle sensitive data, sell to consumers abroad or work in a regulated field.
Keep the document honest and current. Regulators and courts look at what you actually do, not at what a policy says, so update the text whenever you add a form, plugin, payment provider, analytics or advertising tool, and keep older versions with their dates.
