Product Decisions This Supports

Cookie consent and compliance roadmap: v1.3.0 adds a details field, enabling clearer user-facing explanations of cookie purposes and supporting GDPR/ePrivacy-style transparency requirements.
Build vs. buy for consent management: For Statamic-based sites, this package can replace a custom cookie-consent build, reducing engineering scope for a common but compliance-sensitive feature.
Consent lifecycle management: The new config-change check and automatic consent reset reduce the risk of stale consent after cookie configurations change—an important product and legal safeguard.
Feature prioritization: The release improves admin usability and publishing reliability (fixed view publishing), making the package more viable for production rollout without custom patching.
Use cases: marketing sites, content platforms, and Statamic CMS deployments that need configurable cookie consent banners, cookie categories/details, and consent records/reset behavior.

When to Consider This Package

Consider it when the product runs on Statamic and needs a lightweight, configurable cookie-consent mechanism rather than a full enterprise CMP.
Strong fit when the team wants consent behavior tied to cookie configuration, including automatic reset when cookie settings change.
Consider it when users need more granular cookie details in the consent UI and when publishing package views reliably matters for deployment.
Look elsewhere if the product is not Statamic-based, requires advanced consent management (multi-language workflows, complex vendor governance, audit-grade reporting, regional policy automation), or needs a vendor with formal support/SLAs.
Validate maintenance activity, security posture, and upgrade path before adopting for regulated or high-traffic environments.

To executives: This release strengthens cookie transparency and consent accuracy while reducing custom development for compliance-sensitive functionality. It lowers regulatory and reputational risk for Statamic sites without buying a heavyweight CMP.
To engineering: v1.3.0 adds cookie detail support, config-change detection with consent reset, improved view publishing, and caching documentation—useful production-readiness improvements with limited integration effort.
To product: We can ship clearer cookie consent experiences faster, avoid stale-consent edge cases, and defer investment in a larger consent platform until requirements justify it.
