Cookie & Privacy Signal Checker

It looks for privacy-policy and terms links, consent-related wording or known consent-platform names, selected GDPR- and California-privacy terms, known tracker references, and third-party domains recorded in scripts or external links.

No. A public crawl cannot determine which laws apply, what personal data is processed, whether consent is valid, whether scripts fire before a choice, how requests are handled, or whether notices are accurate. The report is a technical discovery aid, not legal advice or a compliance certification.

The pattern check includes OneTrust, Cookiebot, Termly, Iubenda, Osano, Quantcast Choice, and common cookie-banner or consent wording. Detection does not verify configuration, equal choices, consent records, withdrawal, regional targeting, or tracker blocking.

It checks available HTML, text, and script URLs for patterns associated with Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, Microsoft Clarity, LinkedIn Insight, TikTok Pixel, X advertising, HubSpot, Segment, and Intercom. A match does not prove that code executed or stored a cookie.

Not necessarily. Requirements depend on the technologies used, their purposes, applicable jurisdictions, and available exemptions. Inventory the site’s actual cookies and similar technologies, then obtain qualified advice for the markets and users you serve.

Verify the site in a browser and consent-management console, inspect network and storage behavior before and after each choice, document each technology and purpose, and compare the implementation with applicable regulator guidance. Do not infer compliance from the score alone.
