What Is a CMP?
A Consent Management Platform (CMP) helps websites collect and manage user consent for cookies and similar technologies. A CMP presents a banner or preference center, blocks non‑essential tags until consent is given, and records consent for auditing.
What a CMP Typically Does
- Displays a banner with clear choices (accept, reject/manage, customize).
- Defers non‑essential scripts until consent is captured.
- Stores and updates consent preferences; provides a way to change them later.
- Integrates with tools like Google Tag Manager and Consent Mode v2.
- Keeps consent logs to support compliance.
CookieBeam provides these capabilities with a focus on simple installation and accurate Consent Mode v2 signaling.
