Cookie consent monitoring scans your page for the presence of cookie consent mechanisms. A missing banner can trigger GDPR, CCPA, or ePrivacy Directive compliance violations.
⚙️How it works
Uptrue fetches your page HTML and checks for signatures of common cookie consent platforms including CookieYes, OneTrust, TrustArc, CookieBot, Usercentrics, and others. If none is detected, an alert fires.
✓What Uptrue checks
- CookieYes
- OneTrust
- TrustArc / TrueConvert
- Cookiebot
- Usercentrics
- ConsentManager
- Generic GDPR/cookie-law patterns
⚠Alert conditions
- No cookie consent mechanism detected in page HTML
Why this matters
A CMS update, A/B test, or CDN misconfiguration can silently remove your consent banner. Under GDPR, this constitutes unlawful processing of personal data — with fines up to €20 million or 4% of annual turnover.

?Frequently asked questions
Does it detect custom-built consent tools?
It checks for known patterns. Custom-built tools may not be detected. Consider adding a known CSS class or data attribute we can check for.
Does it check consent is working, not just present?
It checks presence only — whether the consent tool scripts/elements exist in the HTML.
