Record contains consent state

Art. 7(1)

Accept/reject state detected

Record contains consent categories

Art. 7(1)

Consent categories (analytics, marketing, etc.) not found in record

Consent withdrawal mechanism accessible

GDPR Art. 7(3)

No way for users to withdraw consent found on page

No cookie settings link, footer link, or floating consent button was detected. GDPR requires users to withdraw consent as easily as they gave it.

Why this matters

Under GDPR Article 7, controllers must be able to demonstrate that consent was given (Art. 7(1)) and ensure users can withdraw consent at any time, as easily as giving it (Art. 7(3)). Sites with no consent record or no withdrawal mechanism cannot legally rely on consent as a lawful basis.
