Cookies compliance setup

A fully configured cookie consent setup that keeps your website legally compliant

Cookie compliance isn't just a legal obligation — it's also a signal to your visitors that you respect their privacy and take data governance seriously. A compliant setup handles consent correctly from the moment someone lands on your site. Cookies compliance setup implements the technical and policy infrastructure your website needs. Correct cookie categorisation, appropriate consent mechanisms, and the documentation to demonstrate compliance — so you meet your legal obligations without creating a poor experience for the people who visit your site.

What Is Our Cookies compliance setup Service

Cookies compliance setup is the process of implementing the technical and legal requirements around how a website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. It involves auditing the cookies in use on the site, categorising them correctly, configuring a consent management platform, writing the cookie policy, and ensuring that tracking technologies are only activated for users who have given appropriate consent in line with GDPR or applicable local regulations.

Why Choose Our Cookies compliance setup Service

You need this when your website is new or significantly changed and you want a rigorous, independent review before it goes live, when performance metrics have declined and you want to identify the cause, or when you want an expert perspective on your site without the potential bias of the team that built it. A website audit gives you an honest, comprehensive assessment of where the site stands and what needs attention.

What's Included In Our Cookies compliance setup Service

This service includes a structured review of your website covering performance, SEO, design, content, accessibility, security and conversion. Delivered as a comprehensive website audit report with prioritised findings, specific recommendations and an action plan.

Cookie compliance isn't a legal box to tick — it's an early signal of how a business treats the people who interact with it. Done well, it's seamless. Done poorly, it creates the kind of friction and uncertainty that starts a user experience on exactly the wrong foot.

Why We’re Different

Most marketing companies focus on channels and tactics.
We focus on reaction.

Before selecting platforms, formats, or media spend, we define how your audience thinks, feels, and decides. We use behavioural psychology to understand what will capture attention, build trust, and motivate action — then choose the channels that best support that outcome.

Every channel we use has a clear purpose, a defined role, and a measurable objective. Nothing is done “because it’s popular” or “because it’s expected”.

The result is marketing that feels natural to engage with, works across multiple channels, and is designed to deliver meaningful, long-term results.

The technical and legal configuration that ensures a website’s use of cookies and tracking technologies complies with UK PECR (Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations) and UK GDPR — including correct categorisation of cookies, a compliant consent mechanism and accurate documentation of all cookies in use.
Strictly necessary cookies (session management, login, CSRF protection — no consent required), functionality cookies (remembering preferences), analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Hotjar), marketing cookies (Google Ads, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag) and third-party cookies from embedded content (YouTube, social sharing widgets).
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to function — they cannot be opted out of without breaking core functionality. Non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing, personalisation) provide additional features or track behaviour beyond basic operation and require explicit user consent before being set under PECR.
A systematic scan of all cookies and tracking scripts active on the website, documenting each one by name, category, purpose, the third party that sets it, data it collects and its retention period. An accurate cookie audit is required before a compliant cookie policy and consent mechanism can be built.
This constitutes a breach of PECR. The ICO has issued fines and enforcement notices for non-compliant cookie practices. Beyond legal risk, non-consensual tracking also undermines visitor trust and may result in skewed analytics data if visitors later withdraw consent or block cookies themselves.
Whenever a new third-party tool, script or embed is added to the website (each may introduce new cookies), when a major platform updates its cookie behaviour (e.g., a Google Analytics version change) and at minimum annually as a comprehensive compliance check. Cookie environments change frequently.
A published cookie policy listing all cookies by category, a record of the cookie audit, documentation of the consent mechanism configuration and evidence of consent (where technically feasible to record). This documentation demonstrates compliance to a regulator if the site’s practices are challenged.
PECR governs when cookies can be set (requiring prior consent for non-essential cookies). UK GDPR governs what happens with personal data that cookies may collect (requiring a lawful basis, typically consent, for processing). Both apply simultaneously; a fully compliant implementation must satisfy both frameworks.
No. Analytics cookies (including Google Analytics) are classified as non-essential under PECR because they are not required for the website to function. They require explicit opt-in consent before being set. Configuring analytics without a compliant consent gate is a common compliance error.
Analytics approaches that measure website performance without setting persistent cookies — using aggregate statistical modelling, first-party data and privacy-preserving measurement methodologies. Google’s GA4 includes consent mode as a partial solution. Cookie-less analytics is increasingly relevant as browser privacy restrictions and user opt-out rates increase.
