How does the cookie scanner work?

We visit your website just like a regular visitor would, clicking around and interacting with your pages. This lets us find every cookie—even ones hidden in third-party scripts and tags—in under 2 minutes.

Will the scanner find cookies set by Google Tag Manager?

Yes! We automatically detect all cookies from Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and any other tools you're using. No need to manually check each tag.

Do I need to categorize cookies myself?

Nope! We automatically categorize cookies for you using our database of 50,000+ known patterns. You can review and adjust them if needed, but most customers accept our suggestions and move on.

Can I schedule automatic rescans?

Yes! Pro plan includes weekly automatic rescans, and Business plan includes monthly rescans. Free plan includes one scan during initial setup. Automatic rescans ensure new cookies are detected as your site evolves, keeping your consent banner and documentation always up-to-date.

Can I scan my subdomains?

Yes! Pro and Business plans include subdomain scanning, so you can scan blog.example.com, shop.example.com, and other subdomains. Free plan scans your main domain only.

Can I control which pages get scanned?

Yes! Pro and Business plans let you whitelist specific URLs to scan or blacklist URLs to skip (like staging environments, admin pages, or test pages). This gives you full control over your scan coverage.

What's the difference between cookies, localStorage, and sessionStorage?

They're all ways websites store data in your browser. Cookies are sent to servers with every request and often used for tracking. localStorage and sessionStorage store data locally in your browser—localStorage persists forever until cleared, while sessionStorage clears when you close the tab. Our scanner detects all three types to ensure complete compliance coverage.

Does scanning affect my website performance?

No. The scanner runs on our servers, not on your live site. It visits your site like a regular user, so there's zero impact on your website's performance or your visitors' experience.

Does this work with modern websites and web apps?

Yes! Whether you have a traditional website or a modern web application, our scanner works perfectly. We detect cookies on all types of sites, including those built with the latest technologies.
