New license wizard
The wizard has five steps. At the end a license is created, a license key is generated and a 14-day trial period starts. You launch it with the New license button on the My licenses page.
Your progress is kept in the session, so you can go back to a step you have already visited at any time and the details you filled in stay there. You cannot skip ahead. If you leave the wizard untouched for too long, the session expires and you start again from the first step.
Step 1: Domain and scan
You enter the website's domain and choose one of two paths:
- Scan the domain. We go through your website in a browser, click “accept all” ourselves (we recognise the twelve most widespread cookie bars) and read which cookies the website actually sets. The scan can take up to two minutes.
- Skip. You fill in the cookies manually in the next step.
You can enter the domain in any form, for example https://www.example.com/contact. The wizard takes example.com from it by itself. It does, however, refuse these inputs:
| Input | Message |
|---|---|
| Empty field | Domain is required |
| A nonsensical form | Please enter a valid domain name |
| IP address | Please enter a domain name rather than an IP address |
.local, .internal, .localhost and similar | Please enter a publicly reachable domain name |
If the scan fails, check that the domain is correct and publicly reachable. The scan does not work for websites behind a login or websites that block us. In that case, skip the scan and continue manually.
If you change the domain to a different one in this step, the wizard resets and starts from the beginning. Confirming the same domain keeps the details you filled in.
Step 2: Checking the cookies
The screen has three parts:
- Cookies on your website that we know. Cookies found that we have in our database. You do not need to worry about describing them; we have done it for you.
- Cookies on your website that we do not know. Cookies found but not described. Each has a
+button that opens a form with the name, domain and path filled in. - Do you want to add any others? A searchable list over our database and the Add Cookie Manually button.
The manual form has these fields: cookie name (required), domain, expiry, processor, description and category (Necessary, Analytics, Marketing, Functional). Manually added cookies are saved only for your account; other customers do not see them.
You confirm the step with the Save cookie configuration button.
Step 3: Website owner information
These details are shown in the cookie policy, which must state who collects the consents.
| Field | Required | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Owner name | yes | A company or a person. |
| Contact email | yes | The address for questions about personal data. |
| Company ID (IČO) | no | |
| Registered address | no | |
| Custom cookie policy page | no | If you leave it empty, the page we generate is used. |
Step 4: Final adjustments
You choose the implementation method: We use Google Tag Manager or We will add it to the page code. You can change the choice at any time later in the license Configuration as the Implementation type.
Then you choose from the menu the texts the bar starts with:
- EU legislation (default)
- Google Consent Mode ready (recommended for Google Ads and Analytics): the bar's description explains personalised advertising and links to Google's privacy information, see A banner that meets Google's requirements.
You can edit the texts later on the Texts tab. Google Consent Mode signals are on from the start. Once you finish, you will find the embed code and the link to our GTM template on the Implementation tab.
Step 5: Payment frequency
You choose how often you will pay after the trial period ends: Monthly or Yearly. Both prices are shown excluding VAT. The Finish setup button creates the license.
What happens when you finish
- A license is created with a 14-day trial period.
- The selected plan is recorded as the next one; when the trial ends, the license moves to it.
- A license key is generated and the license gets its own copy of the bar's texts.
- An email saying that the license for your domain is ready arrives at your billing or sign-in email address.
- The dashboard redirects you to the license detail.
Nothing is paid during the trial period and the bar works in full. However, nothing is collected until you insert the script into the website. So continue with the Installing the cookie bar on your website guide.
