Usercentrics

One of the largest consent management platforms globally, dominant in Europe with strong North American growth following the Cookiebot acquisition

Usercentrics is a Munich-based consent management platform (CMP) founded in 2017, specializing in helping businesses comply with global data privacy regulations including GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, and other regional frameworks. The platform enables organizations to collect, manage, and document user consent for cookies, tracking technologies, and data processing activities across websites and mobile applications. Usercentrics serves over 100,000 websites globally and has established itself as one of the leading CMPs in the European market, with strong expansion into North America and other regions. The company offers a comprehensive suite of privacy compliance tools, including its flagship web CMP, an app CMP for mobile applications, and a Consent & Preferences solution for more granular user preference management. Usercentrics has grown through strategic acquisitions, notably acquiring Cookiebot in 2021, significantly expanding its customer base and market reach. The combined entity positions Usercentrics as one of the largest consent management providers globally, competing directly with OneTrust, TrustArc, and Quantcast Choice. In the AdTech ecosystem, Usercentrics plays a critical role as the compliance layer that enables publishers and advertisers to operate lawfully in privacy-regulated markets. Its integrations with Google Consent Mode, IAB TCF 2.2, and major tag management systems make it a foundational component of modern data-driven marketing stacks. The company has raised significant venture funding and continues to invest in product innovation around privacy-preserving technologies and consent signal interoperability.
