How to handle cookie consent (GDPR) in Figma Sites?

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m currently building my portfolio site with Figma Sites (loving it so far! 🎉), but I’m running into a GDPR question.

I plan to add Google Analytics for basic traffic stats — which means I technically need a cookie consent modal for GDPR compliance (I’m in the EU).
As far as I can see, Figma Sites doesn’t (yet) support any built-in cookie consent options.

So my questions:

  • How are others here handling cookie consent with Figma Sites?

  • Is there any native solution planned?

  • Have you successfully embedded 3rd party tools like CookieYes, Osano or others?

Any tips or workarounds would be super appreciated! 🙏

Hi everyone, thanks so much for raising this!

While Figma does comply with various data privacy frameworks, including the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (read more), we don't have direct cookie management features for Figma Sites at this time.

That said, good news, our team is actively working on a native cookie banner solution, stay tuned!

In the meantime, you can implement a cookie banner via a code layer in Figma Sites.
Alternatively, you can also add tracking and consent tools using custom head/body scripts. Here’s a helpful guide from Google on how to manage consent with Tag Manager: Google Tag Manager Consent Setup

Thanks again for sharing your feedback! We've passed it along to the team, and it's helping shape future improvements 🙏

Yep, it seems that at the moment Figma sites doesn't even have support for overlaying modals, it's pretty limited :(

If anyone knows how to do it I'll also be interested.

Right now, you could try building your front end in Figma Sites (or your own front end), use a cookie-consent banner in that UI, and then send the consent state to a server-side tracking setup. With server-side GTM and a consent-aware setup, you can better control which tracking tags fire after a user gives permission.

Setting up server-side tracking may sound a bit heavy at first, but there are tools that automate most of the setup for you. I recently came across the GTM Setup Assistant that builds both the web and server GTM containers for you, and you can adjust it to include whatever consent logic your stack needs.

Forgot to mention, I couldn’t find its competitors yet, but I guess there will be alternatives in the future.
