    Post Magento Cookie Restriction Mode

    Magento can notify store customers about cookies that are being used by a. The feature is called Cookie Restriction Mode. It is aimed at helping store owners to comply with the European Union Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive and its amendment. According to these documents, websites cannot use cookies until a user consents.

    Enabling and Configuring Cookie Restriction Mode

    To enable the cookie restriction mode:

    1. Log in to the Magento Admin Panel.
    2. Navigate to System > Configuration > GENERAL > Web.
    3. In the Current Configuration Scope in the upper-left corner of the page select the desired website.
    4. Expand the Session Cookie Management filed set.
    5. In the Cookie Restriction Mode field select Yes.
    6. To save the changes click the Save Config button.

    Cookie Restriction Mode: Implementation Details

    After the cookie restriction mode is enabled, a message is displayed on the top of each page in the store front. The message informs customers that the website requires cookies to provide all of its features and requests users to confirm that they are informed and consent.


    The message contains a link to the Privacy Policy page, which provides a list of cookies being collected and explains on how they are used. The default content of this page can be changed under CMS > Pages > Manage Content > Privacy Policy. After a customer clicks Allow, the message disappears.

    If a customer does not click Allow, the message persists, but the store functionality is available as usual. However, Google Analytics cookies are not stored in this case, even if the Google Analytics functionality is enabled.

    By enabling Cookie Restriction Mode, Magento 2.1.x does not show Google Analytics or GTM tracking, even if the user has accepted cookies.
