Automatic handling of GDPR consent forms

Cookie pop-ups are designed to be confusing and make you 'agree' to be tracked. This add-on automatically answers consent pop-ups for you, so you can't be manipulated. Set your preferences once, and let the technology do the rest!

This add-on is built and maintained by workers at Aarhus University in Denmark. We are privacy researchers that got tired of seeing how companies violate the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Because the organisations that enforce the GDPR do not have enough resources, we built this add-on to help them out.

We looked at 680 pop-ups and combined their data processing purposes into 5 categories that you can toggle on or off. Sometimes our categories don't perfectly match those on the website, so then we will choose the more privacy preserving option.

The first version of this add-on works with 4 popular pop-ups: Cookiebot, OneTrust, QuantCast, and TrustArc. The add-on is open source, so anyone can add additional pop-ups through our template system: https://github.com/cavi-au/Consent-O-Matic.

sloth 2022-04-27 I'm yet to run into a time where this extension fails. Works flawlessly AND is open source which is very important to me (and for privacy). Much better than alternatives and it's a huge time saver.
Dan Dragomir 2022-04-21 It works, except for the part where it scrolls the page all way down to the footer. This is even more annoying than the few sites where it didnt work.
Jesper Hertel 2022-03-17 Excellent. It doesn't work on all sites, but still quite a few, and it does it flawlessly on those. Such a relief to not have to deal with the cookie consent madness on some websites. And you can even report those on which it doesn't work, which gives you a nice feeling of being able to give feedback and "make a wish", in the hope that a kind soul one day will make it work on those websites too.
blanche ipad 2022-03-11 Basically a good idea, but it didn't work on some of the biggest German news sites like heise.de, sueddeutsche.de, faz.de, zeit.de and spiegel.de. Does this plugin even have more code than needed to display the report button?
Barney Pitt 2022-02-12 Hasn't worked once. Utter waste of time.
