Initial Cookie Blocking for Improved Shopify Store Privacy
We keep receiving questions such as "How does cookie blocking work?" and "How to initially block cookies?" or even "Where can I find the cookie blocking settings in Shopify?". That's why we decided to make this blog post and thoroughly explain how the initial blocking of cookies work within Shopify and how our app helps with that.
Block cookies in Consentmo app
To set the initial blocking of cookies in our app, navigate to Consent banner tab >Behavior >Default mode of checkboxes. Here, you must tick off all three cookie categories so that the app can work seamlessly.
Consent banner tab >Behavior >Default mode of checkboxes
In our Integrations tab section, we have presented the ways to add blocking scripts to all of Google and Facebook's most common services with one click of a button. To learn more, you can check out the blog post "What more can the Integrations tab do for your shop?" and for information on additional tracking services not in our Integrations tab, like Klaviyo, UET, Rakuten Advertising or Google Optimize, check our FAQ page or contact the support team.
Note Our app can only block first-party cookies - meaning cookies set from your domain. If you need help blocking custom scripts, you can contact our support team at apps-support@consentmo.com
This is the setup we recommend for the initial blocking of cookies in Shopify. To keep your store and visitors safe, go ahead and download the Consentmo app. If you have any specific questions do not hesitate to contact us via chat or email, or simply check our FAQ page.
