What does a Cookiebot scan tell you?
The scan helps identify cookies and their categories. With automatic blocking, the scan and classification help determine what can run when someone makes a choice.
Cookiebot says full coverage requires an initial scan and analysis. Compare what it found with your own tag inventory and check any tags the scan did not classify as expected.
How can someone change a Cookiebot preference?
Cookiebot documents ways to reopen the preference control, including a privacy trigger or an integration you add. Check which options your plan includes.
Make the control easy to find after the initial banner is gone. If a visitor changes their choice, check future activity separately from any data already sent.
How does Cookiebot count a small site?
Cookiebot prices by domains and scanned subpages. Its pricing card and support article list Free for one domain and up to 50 subpages. Check the count the scanner reports and which Premium features you use.
A subpage is a distinct address on the domain. Site visits are a different unit and Cookiebot’s pricing page says it does not charge by pageviews or usage.
What can you take from a Cookiebot account?
Cookiebot documents downloading a consent log for a selected domain and date range. Check availability on your plan before relying on it.
A log records choices. Keep your own notes on what each choice controlled and review who needs access to any downloaded records.
How would you check the effect of withdrawing a choice?
Draw a fictional workshop page, an optional audience counter and an always-available link to change preferences. Use no deployed site or real records.
- Allow the optional featureMark the point where your diagram first allows the counter to send a new event.
- Withdraw the choiceOpen preferences again on paper. Reload the drawing and confirm no new counter event should be sent. The workshop schedule should still work.
