Consent management and GPC testing
A consent management platform is only as good as its implementation. Tagmaps tests it.
A deployed CMP is not necessarily a working CMP
You deploy your CMP and everything looks great. But what does it look like for visitors in different geographies? Is it respecting GPC? And what if someone adds new trackers to your site?
Tagmaps answers these questions for you, automatically. By testing your CMP implementation from different locations around the world, Tagmaps tells you if your deployed CMP is a working CMP.
What your CMP is tested for
Tagmaps includes pre-built tests for your CMP, checking against privacy regulations around the world.
Deployed on every page
Tagmaps tells you if your CMP is on every page, or if some are missing
Consent blocking
Tagmaps tests your site with and without consent, instantly identifying non-essential or 3rd-party tools that fire without consent.
Opt-in Vs. Opt-out
Tagmaps tests from regions that require both opt-in and opt-out, telling you if your CMP respects both.
How GPC is tested
Global Privacy Control (GPC) is not a button on your CMP, it's a signal sent by the browser, that you need to respect.
The signal is sent
Tagmaps loads your site with a web browser, sending the GPC signal on every page load.
Your site reads it
Tagmaps checks whether your CMP detects GPC and honors it as an opt-out request.
Tags respect the opt-out
Detecting GPC is step one, but honoring the opt-out is what really matters. Tagmaps checks to see if tag behaviors change to respect the GPC signal.
Tested from regions requiring GPC
GPC is not globally required, only some jurisdictions require you to honor it, so Tagmaps tests from those regions.
Tagmaps provides testing for your website, not legal advice. Test results should be treated as information, not legal advice.
CMP and GPC testing FAQs
Does this work with all CMPs?
Tagmaps has been built to integrate with and test the most widely used CMPs. Tagmaps also has fallbacks built in for less common CMPs.
Does this replace our consent management platform?
No. A CMP is still a crucial piece of your privacy program, Tagmaps offers a way to validate that your CMP is implemented correctly.
