Frequently asked questions

Is this cookie policy legally binding or legal advice?

No. This generator produces a plain-language template to help you get started. It is not legal advice. Cookie and privacy laws differ by country and state, so review the result and, where it matters, have a qualified lawyer check it before you publish.

Does it cover GDPR and CCPA?

Yes. Choose GDPR for EU and UK consent rules, CCPA for California opt-out rights, or both to include each. A general option drops the formal consent section if neither framework applies to your audience.

Is my information sent to a server?

No. The policy is assembled entirely in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing you type, including your company name, URL or email, is uploaded, logged or stored by us.

What is the difference between a cookie policy and a privacy policy?

A cookie policy focuses specifically on the cookies and similar technologies a site uses and how to manage them. A privacy policy is broader and covers all the personal data you collect. Many sites publish both and link them together.

Why do some sections appear or disappear?

The document is built from your answers. Sections for essential, functional, analytics, marketing and third-party cookies only appear when you enable them, so you do not describe cookies your site does not set.

Do I still need a cookie consent banner?

Often yes. Under GDPR and similar laws you must get consent before setting non-essential cookies, which usually means a banner in addition to this policy. The policy explains your cookies; the banner captures the consent.
