Now available · Chrome · Firefox · Safari for iPhone & iPad
Install once. BannerBye refuses every banner — automatically, legally, everywhere you browse.
Free on Chrome & Firefox · €1.99 on iPhone & iPad. Also works on Edge and Brave.
Poof. Every banner, every site, without a click.
The problem
You've already made your choice. The web keeps pretending it doesn't know — same banner, same hidden reject button, same interruption, thousands of times a year. Clear your cookies and the whole carousel starts over. Open a different device, same thing. It's not consent anymore. It's muscle memory.
1,020
Cookie banners the average internet user clicks through in a year. Every one of them asks a question you've already answered.
76%
Of users who dismiss the banner without reading it — usually by tapping "Accept all" just to make it stop. That's not consent. That's exhaustion.
72%
Of cookie banners use dark patterns — reject hidden, accept pre-selected, layouts designed to tire you into saying yes.

How it works
Add BannerBye to your browser. Pick what you share, what you don't. Takes about ten seconds.
Banners disappear before they render. No flash, no click, no dark pattern. Just the page you came for.
Your preference lives on your device. Not in our cloud. Not in anyone's analytics. Open source, auditable, yours.
AI-driven · self-improving
Websites rewrite their cookie banners constantly. Most blockers fall behind — you install one, and months later it quietly stops working. BannerBye works the other way. It catches what slips through, Anthropic's Claude checks the fix, and the improvement ships to everyone. By itself.
A site sneaks a new banner past BannerBye. The system spots it and flags it — no bug report from you needed.
Anthropic's Claude reads the fix and decides whether it's safe to trust. Clear wins ship. Anything doubtful waits for a human. The gatekeeper never guesses.
Approved fixes roll out to everyone automatically. Nothing to update, nothing to click. It just keeps working.
AI-driven, reviewed by Claude — a cookie killer that gets smarter on its own.
What makes it different
We send the signals regulators wrote into law. Sites have to listen. No clever hacks that break next week.
Every rule, every line of code, public on GitHub. If you don't trust it, fork it.
We don't know which sites you visit. We can't. The extension never phones home with your browsing.
Chrome and Firefox on desktop, Safari on iPhone and iPad. One preference, every screen.
The alternatives
The others dismiss the banner after it already reached you. BannerBye works one step earlier — it tells the site you've already said no, so the banner never loads at all.

Questions
Browsers can block cookies, but cookie banners are the prompts asking for consent — not the cookies themselves. Block cookies and you'll still see 50 banners a day.
Firefox has a "Cookie Banner Reduction" feature, but it only covers a small list of sites in Strict mode. Chrome and Safari have nothing built in. "Do Not Track" is a deprecated header that virtually no site respects anymore.
BannerBye works on every site through three legally recognised signals: the GPC header, the IAB TCF reject string, and a pattern-based auto-click for custom banners. The banner never renders in the first place.
No. Safari's built-in privacy features are defensive — they limit cookies, hide trackers, and wipe history. None of them prevent cookie banners from appearing.
BannerBye works one level above all of this. It sends a legal "no" via GPC and IAB TCF before the page renders. The banner never has to appear, and the site knows your answer.
Safari makes tracking harder. BannerBye makes the asking stop.
No. The extension reads the page in your browser only to find cookie banners. Nothing is sent to our servers — except the hostname when you tap "Report broken site," and only then.
The full source code is open and auditable on GitHub: github.com/BannerBye/BannerBye. Search the repo for "tracker" or "analytics" — you won't find any.
It handles the vast majority of cookie banners through three independent layers: GPC (legally binding in several US states), IAB TCF reject (used by most major European publishers), and a pattern-based auto-click for custom banners.
For the rare site where it doesn't work, one tap on "Report broken site" in the popup tells us. Our daily-updated rule list reaches every user within hours — no extension update needed.
Global Privacy Control. A web standard that tells every site you visit: "I do not consent to the sale or sharing of my data." It's legally binding in California, Connecticut, and Colorado, and increasingly enforced across the EU.
BannerBye adds the GPC header to every outgoing request your browser makes. You set your preference once. No clicks needed.
Yes. Free, no account, no ads, no upsell. The extension is MIT-licensed open source.
If we ever introduce paid features, the core (killing cookie banners on every site) will always stay free.
iPhone and iPad: yes, via Safari (App Store). Android: yes on Firefox via the Mozilla add-on. Chrome for Android doesn't support extensions — that's a Google limitation, not ours.
No — by design. BannerBye is a privacy tool, not a consent-automation tool. We always reject because that's what makes us a privacy tool in the first place.
If you'd rather always accept: don't install BannerBye. Just click "OK" on banners like you already do — your browser already defaults to accept-friendly behaviour. Automating "accept" via an extension is also legally questionable under GDPR, since consent has to be freely given.
There is no toggle in the popup. The choice is made at install: install BannerBye, and your consent preference is set to "reject" for every site, forever.
That's Apple's standard warning for every Safari extension that needs access to page content. It describes what the extension is technically capable of, not what BannerBye actually does. Chrome and Firefox show similar warnings for the same reason.
BannerBye reads the page structure to find cookie banners and clicks "Reject all." It does not read passwords, credit cards, or browsing history. Full breakdown on the privacy page.
