Set up the Usercentrics app and manage cookie banners

Valid for MyWebsite Creator.

The Usercentrics app enables easy integration of the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform into your MyWebsite Creator project. This article describes the basics.

Please Note

The Usercentrics app will no longer be available for MyWebsite Creator from November 2024. New installations are no longer possible. Already active installations can still be used.

IONOS strongly recommends switching to an up-to-date cookie consent management solution. The Help Center article "Alternatives to the Usercentrics app (Cookie Consent for MyWebsite Creator)" provides information about alternatives.

Set up the Usercentrics app

  • Open the MyWebsite Creator via your IONOS account.
  • Click on My apps > Usercentrics  in the left-hand navigation.
  • Click on Start setup. Your website will now be analyzed for the tracking technologies used. This may take a moment.
  • You will receive a list of the tracking technologies found. Click on Confirm configuration.
  • Fill in all the necessary information and select the desired settings for your cookie banner. You can edit the settings again later, at any time.
  • Click on Save to finalize the setup and integrate the cookie banner into your website.

Note

In order for the cookie banner to be displayed on your website, you must republish your MyWebsite Creator project.

Delete Usercentrics app (deactivate cookie banner)

If the cookie banner should no longer be displayed on the website, the Usercentrics app must be removed:

  • Open the MyWebsite Creator via your IONOS account.
  • Click on My apps in the left-hand navigation.
  • Click on Options and info in the Usercentrics tile.
  • Click on Remove. The Remove Usercentrics page is displayed.
  • To remove the Usercentrics app, click Remove.

The cookie banner is now automatically removed from your website. It is not necessary to publish the website again.
