Frequently asked questions
What does Osano cost?
Osano does not publish list prices. Most plans are sold through a demo-led, quote-based process, and the vendor also offers self-service plans. Expect pricing to scale with the number of sites or domains, consent volume and which modules are in scope (cookie consent, subject rights, data mapping, assessments, vendor privacy risk). Buyers should request a written quote before committing.
How long does implementation take?
Osano markets deployment through a single line of code to remove engineering blockers. One published customer story reports being live and compliant within 4 days, and another within 24 hours for a custom cookie consent banner. Broader program work such as data mapping, vendor risk and assessments takes longer than the consent banner itself.
What is the "No Fines, No Penalties" guarantee?
Osano describes it as a contractual promise to cover regulatory fines up to $500,000, positioning it as a way to reduce financial uncertainty for leadership. The precise scope, exclusions and claims process are governed by the contract, so legal counsel should review the terms before relying on it.
Which privacy regulations does Osano cover?
Osano states pre-built rule sets for 95+ regulations across 50+ countries, naming GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, LGPD and US state laws. It also supports Global Privacy Control, Google Consent Mode, Do Not Track, and IAB TCF/GPP strings, plus automatic banner localization and jurisdiction-aware opt-out language.
Does Osano use AI?
Yes. The vendor describes AI-powered cookie classification and AI-powered data classification, which cut manual tagging effort. The pages reviewed do not name a model provider, explain how customer data is used to train or improve models, or document AI-specific audit logging, so those points should be confirmed directly with the vendor.
