Cookie walls may seem like a clever way to ensure consent. But they often backfire—hurting user experience, damaging trust, and putting your website at legal risk.
What is a Cookie Wall?
A cookie wall blocks access to content unless users agree to tracking. While it may increase consent rates, it violates GDPR because consent must be freely given—not forced.
Why Should Developers and Marketers Care?
According to CNIL, ICO, and EDPB guidelines, cookie walls are often non-compliant. That puts you at risk of:
- Legal fines
- High bounce rates
- Lower engagement
- Loss of user trust
And with privacy laws tightening globally, cookie walls are becoming harder to justify.

Instead of blocking content, give users real choice with GDPR-compliant cookie banners.
