Key Concepts​

OneTrust helps you collect, manage, and respect user consent for cookies and tracking technologies. It's not just about showing a banner - it's about implementing a complete privacy-first approach.

Privacy Signals​

Modern browsers send privacy signals like GPC and DNT that indicate user preferences. OneTrust must be configured to respect these signals at the category level, not just globally.

Script Blocking​

Automatic script blocking prevents tracking technologies from loading until proper consent is obtained. This requires careful configuration of both OneTrust and your website.

Integration​

OneTrust works best when properly integrated with other tools like Google Tag Manager. This ensures that consent preferences are respected across your entire technology stack.
