Customize the cookie consent banner

Override the cookie consent banner title, description, and button labels so the banner matches your board's voice and language.

By default, the cookie consent banner uses the standard wording "Hey, we use cookies" with an Accept and Reject button. You can override the title, description, accept label, and reject label per board so the banner matches your voice and the language your audience expects.

These overrides apply to the banner that appears whenever Require cookie consent is enabled in Settings → Features. The setting gates Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, and the LinkedIn Insight Tag. It does not gate Cavuno's built-in first-party session analytics.

Before you begin

List the third-party tags enabled for the board and decide what the banner needs to explain. If legal requirements apply to your use of cookies or tracking, have the wording reviewed for your audience and configuration; Cavuno provides the controls but does not determine the wording you are required to use.

Edit the banner copy

  1. Go to Settings → Features
  2. Scroll to Cookie banner labels
  3. Update the fields you want to change
  4. Click Save

Changes take effect immediately. New visitors will see the updated banner; visitors who have already accepted or rejected cookies won't see it again unless they clear their browser storage.

Verify the banner

Open your public board in a private browsing window so there is no saved consent choice. Confirm the banner shows the title, description, and button labels you saved. Select Accept or Reject, then refresh the page and confirm the banner stays dismissed for that browser. If no banner appears, check that Require cookie consent is enabled under Settings → Features before testing again.

Available fields

  • Banner title: the heading shown at the top of the banner. Max 200 characters. Default: "Hey, we use cookies".
  • Banner description: the supporting paragraph explaining what cookies are used for. Max 500 characters. Default: "This website uses cookies to ensure you get the best experience on our website."
  • Accept button label: the text on the button that grants consent. Max 80 characters. Default: "Accept".
  • Reject button label: the text on the button that declines consent. Max 80 characters. Default: "Reject".

All four fields are required. Leave them at their defaults if the standard wording works for your audience.

Tips

  • Be specific about what cookies you use. "We use cookies to track visits and improve our site" is more trustworthy than vague boilerplate.
  • Match the tone of your board. If your board's voice is casual, keep the banner casual. If you have a B2B audience expecting formality, tighten it up.
  • Localize for your audience. Boards serve a single language, so write the banner in whatever language your board's visitors speak. The banner does not translate automatically.
  • Make the reject button obvious. Depending on the laws that apply to your audience, refusing or withdrawing consent may need to be as easy as accepting it. The banner is one part of a consent implementation, not a guarantee of legal compliance.

Example

Instead of a generic description, name the purpose in plain language: “We use optional analytics cookies to understand which jobs and pages visitors use. Select Accept to enable them, or Reject to continue without them.” Adapt this example to the tools you actually run and the rules that apply to your board.
