Editorial notes

Practical context

Integration

Pure WordPress plugin – cannot be used on other CMS platforms.

Recommended: test on staging with the real tag stack before going live.

Privacy & hosting

Vendor based in Germany.

Content-blocker configuration largely determines whether third parties are actually blocked before consent – review carefully.

Google Consent Mode v2

According to vendor, Google Consent Mode v2 is supported; verify the available modes (Basic/Advanced) in staging.

Pricing model

Annual plugin licence per domain, tiered by single-site vs. multi-site. Verify the current price list before purchase.

Implementation effort

Installation takes minutes; clean per-service configuration may take hours to days depending on the tag stack.
