Free GDPR Compliance Scanner

A GDPR compliance scanner checks your public website for cookies and trackers that may load before visitor consent, reviews cookie consent behavior, and identifies common GDPR compliance issues such as missing prior consent, unequal accept and reject options, and consent withdrawal concerns. The scan highlights findings as pass, fail, or needs review so you can prioritize fixes.

Yes. The ConsentX GDPR scanner is free and does not require an account. It scans publicly accessible pages and sends the scan results, including the PDF report, to your email.

No. A GDPR compliance scanner can identify technical issues such as cookies and trackers firing before consent, but no automated scan can guarantee complete legal compliance. Use the report as a prioritized checklist for technical fixes and human review, not as legal advice.

Generally, yes. Non-essential cookies and trackers, including many analytics and advertising technologies, generally require valid consent before they are activated. Strictly necessary cookies may operate without consent when they are genuinely required to provide a service requested by the user.

Generally, no. A GDPR-compliant consent experience should provide a clear way to reject non-essential cookies and should not use preselected non-essential consent as the default. Accepting and rejecting should be presented in a fair and easy-to-understand way.

You should be able to demonstrate what a visitor consented to, when consent was given, and the policy or consent version that applied at the time. ConsentX can maintain tamper-evident consent receipts containing information such as the consent record, policy version, and hash, which can be exported when needed.
