 I've deployed Cookiebot via GTM to a Wordpress site. Something weird is happening and I'm not sure if this is an expected behavior or not.

Here's what happened:

• Visiting the site as a fresh user (via incognito) and I see the consent banner
• I accepted the consent and verified in the browser dev console that the CookieConsent cookie is created and stamped with the necessary information. 
• I then logged into my website and the CookieConsent stamped cookie was still there.
• I logged out of my site and noticed that the CookieConsent stamped cookie is gone in the browser console.

 

Question: Why is the CookieConsent cookie getting deleted upon site log out?

  Hi, this was a non-issue. The site's logout script was destroying all domain related cookies. I added an exception for CookieConsent.
