Frequently Asked Questions
What should a cookie policy include?
A cookie policy must list: what cookies your site uses, their purpose (analytics, advertising, functionality), duration (session vs persistent), third-party cookies, how users can manage/delete cookies, and your contact information. The generator creates a comprehensive policy from your inputs.
Do I need a cookie policy for my website?
Yes, if you use cookies and have visitors from the EU (GDPR), UK, California (CCPA), or other regulated regions. Even basic analytics (Google Analytics) sets cookies. The generator creates a policy compliant with major privacy regulations.
What is the difference between a cookie policy and a privacy policy?
A privacy policy covers all personal data collection and processing. A cookie policy specifically addresses cookie usage. Many sites combine them, but GDPR recommends a separate cookie policy. The generator creates standalone cookie policies or sections for your privacy policy.
What types of cookies must I disclose?
Essential cookies (login, cart). Analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Hotjar). Marketing cookies (Facebook Pixel, Google Ads). Functional cookies (language, preferences). Third-party cookies (embedded content, social widgets). The generator categorizes cookies by type.
How do I make my cookie policy GDPR compliant?
Require explicit consent before setting non-essential cookies. Provide granular opt-in/opt-out by category. List all cookies with name, purpose, and duration. Allow easy withdrawal of consent. The generator creates GDPR-compliant policies with consent banner recommendations.
