What Is CookieSafe™?
CookieSafe™ is a lightweight, privacy-first cookie consent solution that guarantees compliance without compromising user privacy.
It operates without servers or databases. Everything happens locally — in the browser. Based on Zero Trust and Zero Knowledge principles, CookieSafe™ ensures total user control and zero risk of data leakage. Built for WordPress, WooCommerce, and static sites, it is ideal for those seeking true GDPR and LQPD compliance without the hassle.
CookieSafe manages cookie consent without ever contacting a server or writing to a database. All user interactions — from consent acceptance to rejection — stay in the browser. No sync. Never tracking. No personal data. Ever.
Built by Freemindtronic® Andorra, this client-only approach respects privacy by architecture, not just by policy. Your compliance risk drops to zero. CookieSafe™ runs fast, remains invisible to tracking tools, and provides unmatched sovereignty in cookie management.
Unlike traditional cookie banners that rely on external servers or third-party tracking, CookieSafe™ operates fully offline. All interactions—whether consent is accepted, refused, or customized—are handled locally in the browser. This eliminates any attack surface related to server breaches or data interception.
Because no trust is given implicitly to any component, each action is verified and isolated, ensuring that your site respects the visitor’s intent without compromise.
- Local-only data processing
- No backend vulnerability
- Works even offline
- Compatible with secure environments
This makes CookieSafe™ one of the few cookie managers truly aligned with Zero Trust architecture—a core principle of modern cybersecurity.
At the heart of CookieSafe™ lies a commitment to data minimization. The system is designed to know nothing about the user. Consent is stored using a UUID and timestamp, with preferences saved in localStorage—never sent or synced to a server.
Because you never collect any personally identifiable information (PII), you don’t have to protect what you never touch.
- UUID-based anonymous consent logging
- No cookies or identifiers beyond user control
- No cross-site tracking or ID cookies
- Fully serverless operation
- Fully local, fully legal
- Zero database usage
- No data protection agreement required
Zero Knowledge means true privacy by architecture, not just policy.
CookieSafe was created with both human dignity and technological transparency in mind. The interface is multilingual, accessible, and built to respect cultural and regulatory differences. Moreover, tooltips and consent banners are fully transparent, allowing users to understand what they are agreeing to—before taking action.
With dynamic translation via lightweight JSON, CookieSafe can adapt to user language preferences in real time. It respects the user’s intelligence and right to clarity.
- Intuitive, no-nonsense UI
- Multi-language UI (EN, FR, ES, CA…)
- Dynamic translation via lightweight JSON
- Tooltip explanations for full transparency
- Minimal, non-intrusive design
- WCAG 2.1 AA compatibility
- Designed to inform, not to mislead
It’s privacy UX that treats your visitors with respect, whether they’re human… or machine.
CookieSafe™ is fully compliant with key international privacy regulations, including the GDPR (EU), ePrivacy Directive, and LQPD (Andorra). It embraces compliance by design and by default, reducing your legal exposure without the need for server-side configurations or data retention policies.
By storing everything client-side, you eliminate the risk of unlawful processing, avoid complex audit trails, and gain peace of mind.

How CookieSafe ™ Works
Technical File Structure of CookieSafe™
To keep everything lightweight, modular, and developer-friendly, CookieSafe™ relies on a minimal set of files that work together to deliver full cookie compliance without any server dependency.
File Overview
| File Name | Description |
|---|---|
functions.php (child theme) | Loads CookieSafe™ assets and shortcodes inside WordPress. Also ensures compatibility with WooCommerce and clean enqueue logic. |
cookiesafe.css | Handles the banner UI and responsive styling. Fully override-friendly using custom classes. |
cookiesafe.js | Core logic for banner display, user interaction, and consent tracking via localStorage. |
translations.json | Lightweight multilingual dictionary used to load dynamic text content (EN, FR, ES, CA…). Uses fallback logic when language missing. |
consents.json | Local storage format containing user consents (UUID + ISO timestamp + language). Never sent, synced, or transmitted externally. |
Works
- functions.php injects the shortcode [cookie_banner] into pages.
- cookiesafe.js triggers the banner and tracks consent locally.
- cookiesafe.css styles the interface in a clean and accessible way.
- translations.json loads the language dynamically based on the browser or user preference.
- All user consent data is stored and read exclusively from localStorage as JSON — no cookies, no fingerprinting, no external call.
Benefits of This Setup
- No server needed: Works even on 100% static sites.
- No database query: Ultra-fast and secure.
- Fully anonymous: Privacy by architecture, not policy.
- Multilingual: One .json file per language, easy to extend.
- Plug & play: Just add 5 files to your theme and you’re live.
