What is I don't care about cookies?

'I don't care about cookies' is a practical Firefox add-on that aims to eradicate constant cookie alerts from nearly all websites. It does so either by hiding or blocking these alerts, or automatically accepting the website's cookie policy when necessary for the website's functionality. It does not delete cookies. If you encounter a website still showing cookie warnings, the add-on allows you to easily report it. Importantly, no private data is collected or shared with third parties.

Summary

The EU regulations require that any website using tracking cookies must get user's permission before installing them. These warnings appear on most websites until the visitor agrees with the website's terms and conditions. Imagine how irritating that becomes when you surf anonymously or if you delete cookies automatically every time you close the browser.

This add-on will remove these cookie warnings from almost all websites! You can report any website which still warns you about cookies: just click 'Report a cookie warning' from the extension menu (the brown cookie image next to your address bar).

In most cases, the add-on just blocks or hides cookie related pop-ups. When it's needed for the website to work properly, it will automatically accept the cookie policy for you (sometimes it will accept all and sometimes only necessary cookie categories, depending on what's easier to do). It doesn't delete cookies.

Other browsers are supported too. Check https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/ for info and support.

PRIVACY POLICY RELATED:

If the user chooses "Report a cookie warning" from the menu, this add-on collects only the URL of the current page and redirects user to the reporting page.

IMPORTANT: there is no private or otherwise data collection, data transfer or data sharing with 3rd parties whatsoever.
