Google's banner requirements

A complete overview of what a banner must meet under Google's requirements for consent banners. Cookienovo implements these requirements automatically — nothing else to configure.

Mandatory banner elements

1. Personalised advertising notice

The banner must explain that data is also collected for personalised advertising.

„Používame cookies… na účely personalizovanej reklamy…"

2. Link to Google's privacy policy

The banner must include a link to Google's privacy policy: Google Privacy & Terms.

3. Active consent options

The banner must offer the visitor clear options to consent to or decline data collection.

✅ Accept all   ❌ Reject all   ⚙️ Settings

UI recommendations

  • Banner template selection — when Consent Mode is enabled, the CMP interface should recommend a Google-compliant banner template.
  • Automatic compliance features — with Consent Mode enabled, the following activates automatically:
    • a personalised advertising notice in the banner text,
    • a link to Google's privacy policy,
    • the correct Consent Mode default commands,
    • all 7 Consent Mode consent types. Governed by consent (by default denied) 4 advertising/analytics ones: ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization (the last two were added with Consent Mode v2). The remaining 3 are by default granted: functionality_storage, personalization_storage, security_storage.

Implementation example

Example banner text

“This site uses cookies. We use them to collect and analyse information about site performance and usage, for social media features, for personalised advertising purposes and to improve and personalise content and ads. Learn more | Google Privacy & Terms"

Consent Mode setup

// predvolené súhlasy pred akýmikoľvek Google tagmi
gtag('consent', 'default', {
  'ad_storage': 'denied',
  'analytics_storage': 'denied',
  'ad_user_data': 'denied',
  'ad_personalization': 'denied'
});

Compliance checklist

  • ✅ Personalised advertising notice included
  • ✅ Link to Google's privacy policy present
  • ✅ Active consent options available
  • ✅ Consent Mode defaults before Google tags
  • ✅ All required consent types implemented
  • ✅ Debug mode available for troubleshooting

All of these requirements are built into Cookienovo banner templates automatically. For setup details, see the Google Consent Mode guide.
