AesirX Features: Default Consent Mode
DEFAULT CONSENT MODE
Consent should start the same way everywhere, not depend on which site users visit.
AesirX Default Consent Mode blocks cookies and tracking technologies until users decide and manages all consent text from one place, so every deployment stays consistent.
Why Default Consent Mode Matters
Most websites still treat consent as a page-level add-on rather than a unified user experience. Each site ends up with different banner wording, different tracking behavior, and unclear reject messages. Cookies often load before a choice is made, consent text lives in multiple systems, and teams repeat the same work to align deployments. This results in confusing user journeys, unpredictable tracking behaviors, and avoidable operational costs.
Default Consent Mode fixes this by making the consent banner the first decision point. Cookies and non-essential tracking technologies stay blocked until users choose. From a single interface, you can customize Consent Management Text, Cookie Declaration Text, Details Text, and Reject Text once and apply them everywhere without banner rebuilds or one-off edits.
The result is a predictable consent journey and a scalable deployment model that respects user control under the ePrivacy Directive 5(3) without adding complexity or multiple consent layers.

How it works
Stops tags upfront, applies user choice, and keeps consent messages consistent.
Stops tracking before consent
Activates chosen consent
Centralizes consent text
Default Consent Mode prevents cookies and tracking technologies from loading until users accept, reject, or choose categories. Once selected, the consent state applies, and only the allowed technologies run. All wording used in the banner is controlled from a single interface, helping teams maintain clarity across sites without copy-pasting consent text per deployment.
Keep all consent text in one place – avoids inconsistent banners across different sites.
Note that AI Auto-Blocking works for plugins and scripts loaded through WordPress’ standard architecture. Scripts hardcoded in theme files are not detected and must be added to blocking rules manually
