Get rid of annoying notification banners on websites.
Hide those obnoxious cookie notification banners!
Everyone knows what cookies are, so why do most websites demand that we see a cookie notification banner? This extension will hide them so you can browse the web in peace. GDPR or CCPA? Ban those banners!
It also hides other annoying notification banners, such as full-page email signup windows that popup on top of the page content. Super annoying!
If you use an ad-blocker, this extension will even hide many of those annoying "Please disable your adblocker on our page" notifications that hide the content.
After installing Remove Cookie Banners, you'll finally have a peaceful web browsing experience where you can focus on the content, not annoying and useless notifications covering the content you're trying to read.
The extension can easily be disabled on a per-site basis in case anything goes wrong (and the setting will be remembered in future visits). Temporarily disabling it will also let you see what obnoxious notifications were hidden by the extension... no reload necessary.
Just click "Add to Chrome," then visit your favorite website and notice how clean and peaceful the web is again!
NOTE:
* Google Chrome may show you a notice about this extension being able to access website data. This is automatically generated because Remove Cookie Banners analyzes the HTML source to intelligently hide notification banners. It does not monitor or save your browsing history or personal information.
* You may also see a warning that this extension can see your browsing history. This is because the extension needs to access all your open tabs when you update the extension so changes take effect immediately. This extension does not save, monitor or use your browsing history.

- (2023-02-23) Farran: I loved this extension, but a few months ago I noticed that some pages are unreasonably slow, but are fine in Incognito. Today I tested by disabling each extension one at a time to find the culprit and, sadly, it was this one! Notably, Google Translate takes ~6 seconds to load, compared to less than 2 with this extension disabled. And now I found the problem, I open this extension's page in the Chrome Extensions webstore and find that everyone else is having the same problem. Sorry to say, goodbye! I hope the developer manages to fix this problem soon.
- (2022-08-15) J Gilbert: Causes some sites to take FOREVER to stop loading thus making it IMPOSSIBLE to use any kind of text boxes in pages. Uninstalled!
- (2022-07-18) Chris Shaw: Great when it works, but some pages seem to get in an infinite reload loop. You can click the "Disable on this website" but it doesn't seem to take, meaning your only option is to disable the extension, or view in an incognito window. I wouldn't recommend this extension to a non-techy user, since they'd just see some webpages failing to load. For an example, see https://www.greenmatch.co.uk/
- (2022-05-20) Eric Fox: This extension made many web loads take 10 to 100 times longer. I tracked it down when I realized that disabling all extensions totally resolved my sluggishness. The other 30 cause no issues, but this one is night and day.
- (2022-05-16) André Menezes: A princípio o plugin cumpre com o prometi. Porém ele acaba ocultando vários elementos HTML da página que não são cookies. Trabalho desenvolvendo sites, e já percebi várias quebras por causa do CSS injetado na página.
- (2022-05-01) we ret: Been using it about a week and it seems worse than nothing. Removes lots of things I need like login prompts, but leaves all the annoying "sign up for my newsletter" stuff.
- (2022-04-08) Dion Alde: Recently discovered has been the issue with Reddit with comment sections larger than 100-200 comments causing severe slowdown to the point I have to close the tab. Uses 100% CPU in chrome's dedicated Task Manager when trying to load a comments page. Don't know what changed. Could be malicious for all I know.
- (2022-02-09) Zeid Zeidan: Perfect, just what I was looking for. 5 stars for you good sir.
- (2021-10-15) Krish: Loved the extension. It's a little quirky here and there but overall great! 👍
- (2021-10-12) girasol chang: Got it a couple days ago and has worked perfectly fine since :)
- (2021-08-31) Alex Schlosser: Only works half the time and breaks many websites. Adding exceptions for the pages that the plugin doesn't work with is as annoying as dealing with the cookie banners in the first place.
- (2021-07-31) Tom Schi: Unfortunately it is not clear what the extension does :-( Does it simply close the pop-up dialogue and accept the website operator's default setting? Or does it only disable tracking and advertising coockies but allow functional cookies?
- (2021-04-04) Maryla Zielińska: Dla takich rozszerzeń warto żyć!
- (2021-03-11) Lauri Laakso: Causes way too many problems to websites, needed to uninstall
- (2021-01-04) Johannes Treitz: Removed the add to basket buttom from Amazon lol
- (2020-12-29) Steven Parker: Find myself having to report too many sites for missed banners, this extension also causes sites to not load properly. It is supposed to avoid annoyance, not add to it.
- (2020-10-14) Rainbow Warrior Princess: Unfortunately doesn't work yet with the 'Google Search' (main page) cookie banner. Please add that frequently used site in the next update. Other than that it is very good, even works immediately after activation of extension without having to reload the page with the overlay cookie banner/notice.
- (2020-03-02) Stephanie G.: this extension successfully removed those annoying cookie banners. it also successfully removed the whole navigation bar of a job portal, leading me to the conclusion that the site was broke. luckily i tried it on my phone where the navigation bar was visible. this is CRITICAL BUG - uninstalled this extension instantly.
- (2020-01-14) S. P.: after trying many others, this one is the only that is really working good!👍 hope it will be long lasting and constantly updated🤞 thanks a lot to the developers!👏👏👏
- (2020-01-09) Morgan Bertin: best thing since sliced bread
- (2020-01-09) Chris Vydas: I too found this extension to work better than all the rest of them, it even works on the tab you're reading at the instant the install finishes, the banner disappears and there's no need to reload the page. It even works on mobile browser. Very good. Every news site that resorts to this type of annoyances which is pretty much all news sites like cnn, Forbes, etc that my news feed links to. Sad it has come to this but thank the heavens for this beauty.
- (2019-10-10) Snoopy Hobbes: Great extension! I am so sick of cookie banners on so many websites. I installed this and it immediately removed the banner from the website I was reading. I tried it on some other sites and it even removed an annoying "sign up for our newsletter" popup. Really nice.
- (2019-09-30) Pops Radish: Great,this one works where others don't
- (2019-09-11) Pierre Chilès: Great extension to get rid of all useless cookie acceptance banner that ruins the browsing experience - of course to be used with an extension such as "Privacy Badger" of EFF to prohibit tracking. Nevertheless this extension is quite new and far from perfect. Some websites are just no more accessible and, worst, sometime the app's button to deactivate it on blocked website does not work... and you have to uninstall the app to make it work again. Anyway in such a case I reinstall the app just after as really it's mostly doing a good job. Devs, keep going!
