Many websites are required to request user consent before storing cookies. For example, a cookie banner often appears at the top of a website.
You can centrally manage your company’s website cookie compliance in Applaud to ensure global compliance with cookie laws.
When users access the application, they see the Cookies Consent banner.
The display and functionality of this banner are controlled through your OneTrust settings.
Best practices
- Review regional laws: Cookie consent requirements vary across regions (for example, GDPR in Europe, CCPA in California). Confirm your OneTrust settings align with applicable laws.
- Use plain language: Write banner text in clear, user-friendly terms so users understand what they are consenting to.
- Keep settings up to date: Review your OneTrust configuration regularly to match legal updates and organizational changes.
- Balance UX and compliance: Place the banner where it is visible but not disruptive, and give users clear options to accept or manage cookies.
- Test across devices: Check that banners display correctly on desktop, tablet, and mobile for a consistent experience.
