Does the cky-action cookie need consent?

Usually yes. cky-action is a functional cookie, and unless it is strictly necessary for a feature the visitor asked for, it needs consent before it is set.

How long does the cky-action cookie last?

cky-action usually lasts 1 year. The exact lifetime depends on the site's settings and the version of the script that sets it.

Who sets the cky-action cookie?

cky-action is set by CookieYes. It is in the Functional category.

How do I block or delete the cky-action cookie?

Visitors can delete cky-action in their browser's cookie settings. On your own website, a consent banner can keep the script that sets it waiting until the visitor accepts functional cookies.

Consent

Usually needed

cky-action is in the Functional category. Functional cookies usually need the visitor's consent, unless the cookie is strictly necessary for something the visitor asked for, such as remembering a language they just chose.

GDPR and ePrivacy (EU): Consent is needed before setting cky-action, unless it is strictly necessary for a feature the visitor asked for, such as remembering a language they just chose.
UK GDPR and PECR: The same as in the EU: consent first, unless the cookie qualifies for the strictly necessary exemption.
CCPA and CPRA (California): Disclose cky-action in your privacy policy. If the data it stores is shared with third parties, honour opt-out requests, including the Global Privacy Control signal.

Managing cky-action with a consent banner

A consent banner can keep the script that sets cky-action waiting until the visitor accepts functional cookies. Kukie.io's cookie scanner finds cky-action and sorts it into a category. The banner holds back known trackers by default, and any other script you tag with its category waits too.
