Shopify Cookie Consent Banner Presence Check
Shopify stores must display a cookie consent banner to comply with the GDPR. Check its presence and learn how to configure it.
What this test checks
This test checks whether your Shopify store displays a cookie consent banner. Under the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive, any site using non‑essential cookies must inform users and obtain explicit consent. Shopify offers apps or built‑in settings to add this banner. Its absence exposes you to fines and harms user trust.
Our recommendation
Add a cookie consent banner to your Shopify store. Use an app like 'CookiePro' or Shopify's built‑in settings (if available). Ensure the banner is visible on first visit and allows refusal of non‑essential cookies. Update your privacy policy accordingly.
