To make your site compliant with Cookie Laws, FrankenCookie provides a widget that offers visitors an explanation about cookies being placed on their computer.
By default, it shows a message that informs the visitors about their implied acceptance when they continue to use your site.

The widget provides a default text which can be customized. It also provides a link that visitors can click so that the widget does not appear again as long as the cookie used by FrankenCookie is found when the visitor browses the site.

The default message shown is:

We use cookies to optimize your experience on our site and assume you’re OK with that if you stay.

Along with the message, a link saying

OK, hide this message.

allows the visitor to hide the message on further page views and visits.

“Beware, for I am fearless and therefore powerful.” – the monster
