How to add Cookie Banner to your website

Embed Cookie Banner on Your Website

01

Create a Cookie Banner widget for your website on Common Ninja

First, create a Cookie Banner widget on Common Ninja. On the widgets catalog, find the Cookie Banner and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Cookie Banner widget

When you're done creating the Cookie Banner widget, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Cookie Banner Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Cookie Banner widget to your website, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the widget embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your website.

04

Paste the code to your Platform website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Platform website editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Platform’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Cookie Banner Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Cookie Banner widget on your Platform website.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Cookie Banner widget on your Platform widget. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Platform website’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Cookie Banner widget to your Platform website. You can do this by putting it straight into your Platform website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Cookie Banner widget when your site uses analytics, advertising, or other tracking that requires clear disclosure. A short, persistent banner that explains cookie usage and lets visitors acknowledge or manage consent helps you meet privacy rules while keeping the experience straightforward. It brings the key message to the front instead of leaving it buried in a policy link. This is especially relevant for websites with European visitors, ad integrations, or detailed tracking setups. A clear consent banner supports trust by making data collection transparent, and it helps reduce legal and usability issues with visitors who care about privacy.
