Cookie Consent for OpenCart helps store owners manage visitor consent for analytics and marketing cookies in a clear and professional way. The extension allows visitors to Accept All, Deny, or Customize cookie preferences while ensuring consent signals are applied correctly for modern tracking tools.

The module supports Google Consent Mode v2 and works with commonly used tracking platforms including Google Analytics 4 (GA4), Google Tag Manager (GTM), Meta Pixel, and Microsoft Clarity.

This extension does not add tracking scripts itself. Instead, it updates consent signals for scripts already present on the website, ensuring tracking behaviour respects visitor preferences without causing JavaScript errors.

Multiple display styles are included, allowing the consent interface to match your store design while maintaining a consistent user experience.

Important:

• gtag

If a script is not present, the extension safely skips it without errors.
