What your site gets
A certified dialog
Google-certified, IAB TCF 2.4-validated consent: the approvals ad and analytics partners expect.
Consent Mode v2 by default
On by default for new sites: Google Analytics and Google Ads receive consent-aware signals without per-tag wiring. The Clickio tag just needs to load before your Google tags.
Consent Mode v2 →Cookie Scanner
The Cookie Scanner finds the cookies your site actually sets, including those added by themes, apps and embeds. The Free plan scans up to 20 pages twice a month; paid plans scan more pages, more often.
Cookie Scanner →Self-updating cookie policy
Embed the cookie list in your privacy page once; it stays current as your stack changes.
Cookie List Embed →Your brand, your languages
Colors and layout on every plan; custom first-layer text and several languages on one site from Starter.
Customization →EU, UK and US markets
GDPR via TCF, US state laws via GPP and per-region settings for other laws: the right dialog per visitor, configured once.
Multi-regulation →Frequently asked questions
Where exactly does the snippet go?
Into Layout > theme.liquid, just before </head>, together with the Customer Privacy API bridge. The bridge is what makes Shopify's own pixels and app pixels follow the choice made in Clickio's dialog.
What about all the pixels my Shopify apps added?
The Cookie Scanner finds them, so your dialog and cookie list match what the store actually runs. Because Shopify loads app pixels itself, Clickio passes the visitor's choice to Shopify's Customer Privacy API, which then holds each pixel until the categories it needs are granted.
Will consent break my checkout?
No. Checkout, cart and session cookies are strictly necessary and never gated. Consent governs marketing and analytics trackers.
Does Google Ads conversion tracking survive?
Yes. Clickio sets Consent Mode v2 signals by default, so Google can model conversions for visitors who decline and tracks consented visitors normally.
I sell into the EU, UK and US. Which banner shows?
The right one per shopper: Clickio's geo-detection serves GDPR consent in Europe, US state-law flows via GPP, and other frameworks from your regulation settings.
Copy your tag and have a certified consent dialog running in minutes.
The Shopify plug-in is included on every Clickio plan: start with a 14-day free trial, then pick the tier that matches your traffic and features. Your store needs Shopify Basic or higher, since Shopify's Starter plan does not allow theme code edits.
