Free cookie and privacy tools for UK web agencies
Give clients a useful starting point for cookie banners, policy information and tracking questions. Keep source-code indicators separate from evidence of how consent actually works.
No account or backlink is required to use the instant checker or cookie policy generator. Professional reviews are optional and scoped separately.
Check homepage indicators
Look for cookie-consent wording, possible policy links and common tracking references in the returned public homepage source. Useful when planning a discovery conversation.
A GTM reference does not prove a tag fires. A missing banner reference does not prove no banner exists.
Run the free website checker →Prepare a cookie policy draft
Use an inventory confirmed by your developer, consent platform and browser tests. Enter provider, purpose, duration and choice-route details, then review the editable draft.
The tool does not scan the site, select a legal basis or certify the finished policy.
Open the cookie policy generator →A practical client handover
- Record the scope. List the pages, review date, platform, consent setup and journeys covered.
- Confirm the inventory. Include analytics, advertising tags, embedded content and relevant browser storage. Verify actual settings rather than copying vendor defaults.
- Test visitor choices. Compare a fresh visit, rejection, acceptance and changed preferences. Record network and storage evidence.
- Align the documents. Check the policy, banner information and the live implementation together.
- Record ownership and retesting. Identify who updates tags, consent settings and policy information after future changes.
WordPress delivery
Use the checklist and downloadable scanner information to organise your checks. Source indicators still need browser verification.

The published £395 Google Consent Mode audit covers one website, up to five agreed URLs and one conversion journey. It includes recorded consent-state testing, a PDF findings report and a 30-minute walkthrough. Confirm scope and timing before booking.
The audit is a technical review, not a legal compliance certificate. Any implementation work is agreed separately.
Sharing the resources
You are welcome to recommend the tools where they help your clients. A voluntary resource description could read:
CookieBanner.co.uk — a free UK homepage cookie and tracking indicator checker, with an editable cookie policy draft generator. A starting point for further testing, not a compliance certificate.
Please choose links independently. There is no requirement to link to CookieBanner, exchange links or imply a partnership. No commission arrangement is offered on this page.
Can I use these tools for client work?
You can use the public tools to organise an initial check and prepare a draft. Review the scope of each tool, verify the facts yourself and obtain any permissions needed for the client work. Do not present a homepage scan as a complete consent audit.
Do the free tools prove UK GDPR or PECR compliance?
No. They do not determine lawfulness, test every journey or replace an appropriate technical and legal review.
Do I need to send client access details?
No login is needed for the public homepage check or an initial enquiry. Do not send passwords, private links or customer data through the enquiry form. Agree any later authorised access separately.
