What is a cookie consent checker?

A cookie consent checker scans your website to detect whether tracking scripts (Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, etc.) load before visitors give consent, identifies your Consent Management Platform (CMP), and checks for IAB TCF 2.2 consent signals. It helps spot GDPR and ePrivacy compliance gaps.

Why do tracking scripts before consent matter?

Under GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, non-essential tracking requires prior consent. Regulators have fined companies hundreds of millions (Google €325M, SHEIN €150M) for tracking before consent. A checker reveals whether your site fires trackers on first load.

What are the limitations of a cookie consent checker?

Static checkers analyze initial HTML and cannot click 'Reject All' to verify consent is actually respected, nor detect server-side tracking. For behavioral verification, run a full privacy scan with browser automation.

Regulators are fining

Google (€325M) and SHEIN (€150M) were fined for tracking before consent. Every EU website is in scope.

CMP ≠ compliance

Having a banner isn't enough — trackers must actually wait for consent. We detect the gap.

We check for IAB Transparency & Consent Framework APIs that prove your consent flow is wired correctly.
