My website suddenly asks me "This site asks for consent to use your data" [screenshot included]


My website is almost coded one by one word by myself. I only used smarty, jquery and some other old libs. I didn't change the code for years.

Today when I opened my site, it suddenly asked "This site asks for consent to use your data", which I have no idea what it is.

That's definitely not my code. I immediately check my VPS and all files are as the same as my local backup, means my files didn't get hacked.

More detail:

What causes this pop up? Is it Cloudflare or Google adsense or something else?
