About

ConsentVeil

ConsentVeil hides cookie banners without clicking them. The banner stays unanswered and no choice is sent to the site. It may not recognise every banner, and it never hides paywalls or "pay or accept" choices. • Three modes: Hide everything, Balanced and Gentle. One tap shows the banners again on any site where you'd rather decide yourself. • Recognises popular consent platforms and finds other banners by pattern, including on large sites, inside Shadow DOM and when they appear late. • If a banner slips through, mark it and it stays hidden on that site. • A counter shows how many banners have been hidden. • Third-party videos, maps and comments load only when you want them: once, for a tab, for 15 minutes or always on a site. • The Tracker Firewall blocks known tracking pixels. It is not an ad blocker, and it never blocks payments, sign-in or CAPTCHA. • Neutral notes on misleading banner designs. • Light and dark themes, VoiceOver and keyboard support. To turn it on: on iPhone and iPad, go to Settings › Apps › Safari › Extensions › ConsentVeil. On Mac, go to Safari › Settings › Extensions. There's no account, no server and no analytics; everything runs on your device. It's free, with no purchases or advertising. Powered by Safe & Informed.
