ConsentManager

VERIFIED
Cookie consent · Germany
Founded 2017 · consentmanager.net ↗

EU-hosted CMP on Plusserver (DE) and UpCloud (FI) with no US processor in its published chain; IAB TCF v2.3 ID 31, 100K+ websites, from €23/mo; now a subsidiary of iubenda.

In short

ConsentManager, in the Cookie consent category, is an EU-owned service with Germany as its hosting location and no identified CLOUD Act exposure.

Assessment notes

consentmanager — now branded consentmanager by iubenda after becoming a subsidiary of iubenda Srl (Milan IT), itself part of the Belgian team.blue group — is contracted through consentmanager GmbH (Hamburg DE), consentmanager SAS (Paris FR) and consentmanager AB (Västerås SE), and remains the cleanest processor chain in this category. Its DPA is public and readable without a login, and it is the only vendor here that names its full chain in that document: Plusserver GmbH (DE) and UpCloud Oy (FI) for data centres and DataCamp Ltd (UK) for the CDN. Not one US-owned processor appears, and DNS bears the document out — cdn.consentmanager.net resolves to CDN77 Frankfurt and delivery.consentmanager.net to UpCloud's Frankfurt load balancers — so the consent script every visitor loads never leaves EU-operated infrastructure. IAB TCF v2.3 CMP ID 31, Google Consent Mode v2 certified, IAB GPP, 100K+ websites. cloud_act_exposure: none is now evidenced rather than assumed.

Overview

About ConsentManager

ConsentManager.net is the cleanest cookie-consent pick in this catalogue from a sovereignty perspective, though for a narrower reason than this listing previously gave. It does not run its own data centres: the public DPA names Plusserver GmbH (Germany) and UpCloud Oy (Finland) for hosting and DataCamp Ltd (United Kingdom, trading as CDN77) for the CDN, so the infrastructure is third-party European rather than first-party, and the UK leg is a third-country transfer under the adequacy decision. What does hold up is that not one US-owned processor appears anywhere in that chain, and DNS bears the document out: the delivery hosts resolve into UpCloud Frankfurt and the CDN into CDN77 Frankfurt, so the consent script every visitor loads never leaves EU-operated infrastructure. The ISO 27001 certification recorded here in May is no longer claimed anywhere on the vendor's site and has been withdrawn from the listing; the live claims are IAB TCF v2.3 (CMP ID 31), Google Consent Mode v2 and IAB GPP. Usage-based pricing scales from Free (3,000 views/mo) to Starter €23/mo (100K views, €0.11 per extra 1,000) to Essential €59/mo (1M views) to Enterprise, billed monthly; accessibility is now a separate product line and does not include the CMP. 30+ UI languages, support for 2,500+ tools (analytics, ads, social), a built-in cookie crawler, 100K+ customer sites, and A/B-tested designs aimed at higher acceptance rates and lower bounce. One group fact to carry into any comparison: consentmanager is now a subsidiary of iubenda Srl (Milan), itself part of team.blue (Ghent), so it and Iubenda are not independent options within this category.
