Cookie Policy
A cookie policy with a real table - each cookie named, with its purpose and how long it lasts.
100% free. Runs entirely in your browser - your files and data never leave your device and nothing is uploaded to any server.
Template, not legal advice. This is a template, not legal advice. It describes the cookies you tell it about, so check the list against what your site actually sets - open developer tools, look at Application then Cookies, and compare. A policy that omits a tracker you are running is worse than no policy, and in the UK and EU it is the omission regulators act on.
Start from an example
Fills every answer with a worked example you can edit. Pick the one closest to your business.
Other documents you can generate
Most sites need more than one. A privacy policy without terms, or terms without a refund policy, leaves the obvious gap.
About this tool
Cookie Policy Generator builds a cookie policy from your answers to a short questionnaire. It is for any site running analytics, advertising, embedded video, or a chat widget, and the right moment is as soon as you add the first script that is not strictly necessary. The part of a cookie policy regulators actually read is the table: each cookie named, who sets it, what it does and how long it lasts. "We use cookies to improve your experience" is the sentence quoted back in enforcement notices, not the one that satisfies them. The questionnaire is not decoration. Clauses appear and disappear based on what you tell it, which is why two people using this page get materially different documents rather than the same text with a different name at the top. Everything runs in your browser. What you type is never uploaded, never stored, and gone when you close the tab - which matters here more than on most tools, because these documents carry company details, client names and sometimes tax identifiers.
How to use this tool
- Answer the questionsBusiness or website name. Website address. Contact email. Nothing you type leaves the browser.
- Watch it assembleClauses appear and disappear as you answer, so the document matches what you actually do rather than a generic template.
- Copy or downloadCopy the text, or download as PDF, Word or plain text. The Word version is the one to edit.
Key features
- Runs entirely in your browser. Nothing uploaded, nothing stored, no account.
- Downloads as PDF, Word or plain text - the Word file is editable with no protection on it.
- Built from your answers, so clauses you do not need are left out rather than padded.
- Says plainly what it is and is not, above the preview rather than in a footer.
- Free with no watermark, no email wall and no per-document limit.
Common uses
- Giving a lawyer a draft to review rather than paying them to start from nothing.
- Any site running analytics, advertising, embedded video, or a chat widget.
- Getting something in place as soon as you add the first script that is not strictly necessary.
- Replacing a copied document that describes a different business.
- Preparing what a client, an app store or a payment processor has asked to see.
Tips for better results
- Keep a copy of each version with its date. When someone asks what your terms said last March, the answer needs to be a file rather than a memory.
- Listing the cookies you think you set rather than the ones you do. Open developer tools, look at Application then Cookies, and compare - most sites find at least one tracker nobody remembers adding.
- Pair it with Cookie Consent Banner. Publishing one without the other leaves the gap people notice first.
- Fill in the free-text fields rather than skipping them. The named lists - processors, exclusions, deliverables - are what make it read as yours rather than copied.
Mistakes to avoid
- Listing the cookies you think you set rather than the ones you do. Open developer tools, look at Application then Cookies, and compare - most sites find at least one tracker nobody remembers adding.
- Treating a generated draft as a reviewed one. This is a starting point, and where the stakes are real it is worth a professional reading it.
- Hiding it. A document nobody can find does not do its job - it belongs in the footer of every page.
- Leaving the placeholder text in. Anything in square brackets is a field you skipped, and readers spot them immediately.
Frequently asked questions
Answer the questions on the left. The document builds as you type, and you can copy it, or download it as PDF, Word or plain text when it looks right.
No. It assembles a draft from standard clauses, and every page says so above the preview. Cookie enforcement in the EU and UK is driven by complaints, and complaints are made by people who compared the policy to what their browser actually received.
Yes - free, no signup, no email required and no watermark. It runs in your browser, which is why it costs nothing to provide.
Broadly, any site running analytics, advertising, embedded video, or a chat widget. The best time to do it is as soon as you add the first script that is not strictly necessary.
Most people need Cookie Consent Banner and Privacy Policy as well. They cover the gaps this one does not.
Listing the cookies you think you set rather than the ones you do. Open developer tools, look at Application then Cookies, and compare - most sites find at least one tracker nobody remembers adding.
Yes. Download the Word version and change anything you like - it is a normal .docx with no protection on it.
