data indicating that a first user has not consented to the use of at least one of the one or more cookies;
receiving, by one or more processors, for each respective user of the second portion of the one or more users accessing the particular web domain, second consent data via the second consent interface template variant;
analyzing, by one or more processors, the first consent data and the second consent data to determine a more successful consent interface template of the first consent interface template variant and the second consent interface template variant based at least in part on the at least one success criteria;
in response to determining the more successful consent interface template of the first consent interface template variant and the second consent interface template;
completing the cookie consent interface consent conversion test; and
presenting, by one or more processors, the more successful consent interface template to any subsequent user that accesses the particular web domain after completing the cookie consent interface consent conversion test for at least a particular length of time;
receiving, by one or more processors, a first request from the first user to perform one or more functions at the particular web domain, the one or more functions requiring consent to the use of the at least one of the one or more cookies; and
in response to receiving the first request;
determining that the one or more functions are not possible based on the first consent data indicating that the first user has not consented to the use of the at least one of the one or more cookies; and
automatically re-prompting the first user to provide the consent to use the at least one of the one or more cookies via the more successful consent interface template.

Abstract
In particular embodiments, a consent conversion optimization system is configured to test two or more test consent interfaces against one another to determine which of the two or more consent interfaces results in a higher conversion percentage (e.g., to determine which of the two or more interfaces lead to a higher number of end users and/or data subjects providing a requested level of consent for the creation, storage and use or cookies by a particular website). The system may, for example, analyze end user interaction with each particular test consent interface to determine which of the two or more user interfaces: (1) result in a higher incidence of a desired level of provided consent; (2) are easier to use by the end users and/or data subjects (e.g., take less time to complete, require a fewer number of clicks, etc.); (3) etc.
