WebPlus sites don’t write any cookies unless you explicitly add code to do so, but if you really, really want to add Cookiebot code to your site then you simply need to paste the code

into the ‘Head Code’ section of an HTML Code Fragment object, replacing

00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000

with your unique Cookiebot ID.

Hi Alfred

My website doesn't collect personal data, however I'm not sure if my website uses cookies.

After recently speaking to my web hosting company, about something unrelated, they advised me that all websites now require a cookie consent banner.

I really don't know enough about cookies and what goes on behind the scenes on a website, so thought I'll put a cookie consent banner on and I'm covered.

Cookie consent is only relevant if your website collects personal data. Why would you need to ask for permission for something that you aren’t going to do?

Hi Everyone,

I've just found out that websites require, by law, a cookie consent banner.

My website, (that I built and update regularly via webplus X8) doesn't have a cookie consent banner, and I'm not sure it even collects cookies? However in the interest of wishing to be legally compliant, I'm going to add a cookie consent banner.

After doing a little research I have decided to go with www.cookiebot.com to manage and create the code for the banner.

The problem I have, is that I now have this three line piece of HTML code, (produced by cookiebot), but have no idea how to insert it into my website via webplus X8?

Can anyone help?
