How it sells itself

ConsentGate findet Tracker im Theme, blockt sie im Head und zeigt ein Cookie-Banner. Statistik und Marketing laden erst, wenn jemand zustimmt. Google Consent Mode, Maps-Platzhalter und ein Entwurf für die Datenschutzerklärung sind dabei. Die App ist kostenlos.

Consent Guard opens your storefront in a real browser as a first-time visitor sees it and records every third-party request that fires before the visitor consents. Each request is traced back to its source, whether that is a theme file, a tag manager container, or a script that injected it. The firewall then blocks those trackers on your live storefront until the visitor consents.

Key points
  • Shop auf Tracker prüfen und Kategorien setzen
  • Banner im Theme einschalten, Texte und Farben anpassen
  • Tracking wartet auf die Wahl
  • Google Maps erst nach Marketing-Zustimmung
  • Scans your storefront as a first-time visitor and lists every tracker that loads
  • Shows where each tracker comes from, down to the theme file and line that loads
  • Blocks trackers on your live storefront until the visitor consents, with a switc
  • Supports Google Consent Mode and Global Privacy Control signals
