Borlabs cookie alternative: for all CMS, with data protection text
Borlabs Cookie is popular - but tied to WordPress. As soon as you manage customer sites on Webflow, Shopify or customised sites, you need a solution that works everywhere.
Why a Borlabs alternative?
Borlabs is WordPress-only and does not provide a privacy policy — which is a problem for agencies with a mixed CMS portfolio.
Borlabs Cookie works well on WordPress. But any non-WordPress client site needs a different solution — and you’ll have to manage the privacy policy separately anyway.
Not only WordPress
One snippet for all: WordPress, Webflow, Shopify or custom-built — the same banner, the same security, the same dashboard everywhere.
BlueOcean runs via a snippet on any website. You can manage all client sites — regardless of the CMS — in a multi-client dashboard with a status traffic light system.
The direct comparison
BlueOcean is CMS-independent, blocks trackers before consent is given, and comes with a privacy policy.
| Criterion | Borlabs Cookie | BlueOcean Privacy |

| Privacy Policy | – | ✓ (AI, evolving) |
| Tracker scanner | – | ✓ pre/post consent |
| Multi-client cockpit | – | ✓ from day 1 |
| Hosting | Self-hosted | Germany (managed) |
