Vafer is a Shopify cookie-consent tool designed to hold known trackers, delete cookies after rejection, apply regional rules, and record each shopper’s choice.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-17 issue.

Field notes

The proposed Shopify workflow combines the Customer Privacy API with Google Consent Mode v2, geographic rules, cookie declarations, and consent records exportable as CSV. The page advertises a 14 KB script and lists 18 pre-filled declarations plus 10 provider bundles. It also identifies two stated blind spots: scripts hard-coded into a theme may load before the app can act, while unknown trackers pass through until they are added.
