Consent banner behaviour
Detect a supported consent banner and check whether a clear reject control is available.
Check03
Tracking services
Identify Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar, and TikTok Pixel.
Check04
Google Consent Mode
Check whether a Google Consent Mode state is visible in the page at scan time.

Why it matters
Why test your website?
Many websites have a cookie banner, yet analytics or marketing technologies still load before consent. A banner alone does not prove the implementation is correct. The scanner observes the page as a new visitor experiences it.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is the scan free?+
Yes. You can run a limited number of free scans without creating an account.
Do you save my website data?+
Scan data is stored temporarily for up to 24 hours so the worker can create and return the report. It is not linked to a user account.
How long does a scan take?+
Usually less than a minute, depending on the website.
Does the scanner fix the problems?+
No. The report explains what was detected. You can fix the implementation yourself or use CookieFence to manage consent.
Is this a legal compliance decision?+
No. It is an automated technical diagnostic. Legal compliance can also depend on content, purpose, and organization-specific factors.
