Your cookie banner might probably isn’t actually protecting you.

Most sites with a visible cookie banner are still firing trackers before consent — the exact violation regulators are now fining. Run a free 30-second scan and see what’s actually loading on your homepage.

Why this matters

The cookie banner you installed three years ago is probably out of compliance — and the fines are real.

€20M

Maximum GDPR fine

Or 4% of global annual revenue — whichever is higher. Pre-consent tracking is one of the most-cited violations in 2024–2025 enforcement.

$7,500

Per CCPA/CPRA violation

Intentional violations. Each non-compliant tracker firing for each user can be counted separately. Class actions are accelerating.

73%

Of banners are non-compliant

Independent audits of mid-market US sites find the majority fire marketing trackers before any consent is given — even with a banner visible.

How it works

From URL to compliance findings in 30 seconds.

Step 01

Enter your URL

Just your homepage — no install, no account, no credit card. We’ll load your site in a clean browser session, exactly the way a first-time visitor would.

Step 02

We run 7 automated checks

Our agent inventories your cookies, detects your CMP, watches what fires before consent, and grades your banner against GDPR & CCPA expectations.

Step 03

See findings instantly

Get a 5-level compliance grade and a plain-English list of what’s working, what’s risky, and what’s broken — before you leave the page.

What we check

7 checks. Every site. Free.

CMP vendor detected

OneTrust, Termly, Cookiebot, Osano, CookieYes, Iubenda, or a custom solution — we identify what you’re running.

Cookie banner present

Is the banner shown on a clean first visit, before the user has scrolled or interacted?

×

Reject / Decline button

Most non-compliant banners hide or omit this. We check whether users can decline as easily as they can accept.

Cookie inventory

Count of first-party vs. third-party cookies set on initial load. Identifies the riskiest tracking domains.

!

Pre-consent tracking detected

The biggest violation: marketing trackers (GA4, Meta Pixel, GTM tags) firing before a user clicks Accept.

§

Privacy policy link

Is your privacy policy linked from the banner, present on the site, and reachable in one click?

Overall compliance level (1–5)

A single grade summarizing your standing: Level 1 (critical exposure) through Level 5 (fully compliant & audited). Most clients start at Level 2–3.

FAQ

Common questions

Is the free scan really free? What’s the catch?

No catch. The scan runs in your browser, takes ~30 seconds, and gives you a real 5-level compliance grade. Creating a free Compass account is optional — only do it if you want to save results for 3 months or download a PDF.

Do you actually look at my site, or is this just a generic checklist?

We load your site in a clean browser session (no cookies, no consent given) and observe what actually happens — which scripts fire, what cookies get set, whether your banner appears, and whether trackers run before consent. It’s a real behavioral test, not a checklist.

Will this fix my compliance problems?

The free scan identifies them. Fixing them is on you (or your dev team), or you can engage the Detailed Scan ($200) for line-item remediation notes, or the Full Audit for a prioritized fix plan and expert consultation.

Can I trust the results in legal proceedings?

The Free and Detailed scans are agent-generated reports — useful as internal evidence and discussion documents, but not formal legal opinions. The Full Audit tier includes expert sign-off from our practice lead and is more appropriate for formal documentation.

Will the scan affect my analytics or break my site?

No. The scan loads your site exactly once, like any other visitor would. It doesn’t modify your code, doesn’t install anything, and the single page view is indistinguishable from a real user in your analytics.

What happens to my report after 3 months?

If you have a free account, your saved scans expire 3 months after creation — we’ll email you a week before with options to extend or upgrade. If you’re on a paid tier, results are retained for the duration of the engagement.
