Pandectes GDPR Help for Shopify: Cookie Consent and Compliance

Switching the banner on takes a few clicks. Showing that tracking really waits for consent takes testing.

Auditing every tag and pixel. Listing what the store loads, from GA4 and Google Ads to Meta Pixel, TikTok and Microsoft Clarity, then checking each one waits for the right consent category. A technical store audit often surfaces scripts nobody remembers adding.

Consent signals for ad platforms. Configuring Google Consent Mode v2 and Microsoft's UET consent mode so ad platforms receive each visitor's consent state.

Blocking beyond the defaults. Setting the auto blocker for popular services, then writing advanced rules or inline script blocks for code added by hand or by other apps.

Region-specific banners. Geo-based rules so visitors in each region see the banner your adviser approved for that region, lined up with your Markets setup.

Checkout and headless coverage. The checkout block extension, the checkout banner for Shopify Plus stores, or headless and Hydrogen support on the top plan.

Data requests and consent records. Customer data requests with DSAR CSV export, and consent logs your team can pull when a customer or regulator asks.

When a store can go it alone. A single-market Online Store 2.0 store with a few standard tags can often set up the free or $9 plan without outside help.

Consent work is invisible when it is right and costly when it isn't. Test a candidate's method, not their confidence.

Ask how they prove blocking works. A credible answer involves a clean browser, a declined banner and a check of which network requests still fire. Trusting the scanner alone is not a method.

Name your marketing stack. List your tags and apps. A capable specialist says which consent category each belongs in and which need custom rules.

Watch where they stop. Good specialists configure the tool and send legal questions, such as where opt-in is required, to your adviser. Be wary of anyone who promises compliance or freedom from fines.

Ask what happens to your reports. Declined consent changes what GA4 and ad platforms record. They should explain the expected effect before your dashboards dip.

Plan advice that fits. Recommending Enterprise for a store that needs no TCF banner, headless support or Plus checkout banner suggests they skimmed your brief.

Commission a consent audit first. A short paid task: every tag listed, what fires before consent today, and a fix list mapped to Pandectes settings.

No impression cap on Free. As of October 2026 the free plan has unlimited impressions and banners translated into all EU languages.

Pandectes Plus, $9 a month. Adds Google Consent Mode v2, multiple languages and an automated cookie policy page. It is unrelated to Shopify Plus.

Premium, $29. Adds the auto blocker, the checkout block extension, an accessibility widget and an EU withdrawal page.

Enterprise, $49. Adds bot and crawler blocking, the IAB TCF v2.3 banner, headless and Hydrogen support, a JS API and a checkout banner for Shopify Plus stores.

Yearly prices and trials. Annual billing is $90, $290 or $490, and each paid plan starts with a 7-day free trial.

What the app can read. The listing shows access to customer name and email, geolocation, IP address, and the theme and script tags. Record that in your own privacy documentation.

Built with Online Store 2.0 in mind. The developer calls it best for Online Store 2.0 and headless stores. If your theme predates Online Store 2.0, raise it before installing. Accessibility features don't replace a proper accessibility review.

Marketing, design and store setup each appear on 3 of the 4 profiles, a fit for consent work that sits between tracking, banner design and store settings.
