Frequently Asked Questions

My website uses a Consent Management Platform, does Tag Inspector emulate user consent choices?

Consent Management Platforms (CMPs) and tag auditing platforms may serve different purposes, but together they shape a unified approach to monitoring consent. As CMPs handle how user consent choices are collected and enforced, tag auditing platforms like Tag Inspector can then validate whether these are honored in practice.

Tag Inspector has the functionality to simulate how a real user’s consent preference impacts the behavior of tags loading on a website.

During a scan, the tool can interact with the implemented CMP on the website to select the consent option(s) available to users and report which tags fire under such conditions. It can also crawl pages with default consent (meaning no interaction with the CMP banner at all), or with a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal set on the browser.

By emulating these different consent states, Tag Inspector helps ensure your CMP configuration is working as intended. Not only does this reinforce privacy compliance, but also allows you to deliver a consistent and reliable user experience across your digital properties.
