Overview

The GDPR Cookie Scanner MCP server provides URL-based scanning to identify pre-consent cookies, third-party trackers, and gaps in GDPR/CCPA compliance. It analyzes website scripts, storage mechanisms, and network requests to flag issues like unauthorized data collection before user consent.

Key Capabilities

  • URL Scanning: Inputs a single URL or list of URLs and returns a breakdown of cookies set without consent, including first-party and third-party types.
  • Tracker Detection: Identifies embedded trackers from services like Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or advertising networks that bypass consent mechanisms.
  • Compliance Gap Analysis: Checks against GDPR Article 49 and CCPA requirements, reporting missing consent banners, improper storage access, or non-compliant rejection options.

Reports include severity levels, affected domains, and remediation steps such as script blocking or consent integration.

Use Cases

  1. Pre-Launch Audit: Developers scan staging sites to ensure no trackers load before cookie consent, avoiding fines during production rollout.
  2. Ongoing Monitoring: Compliance teams schedule scans for live e-commerce sites to detect new third-party scripts added by plugins.
  3. Vendor Assessment: Marketers evaluate partner landing pages for trackers that could violate shared compliance obligations.
  4. Regulatory Reporting: Legal teams generate scan reports as evidence of due diligence for GDPR audits.

Who This Is For

Web developers integrating privacy tools, compliance officers in EU/US firms, digital agency auditors, and site reliability engineers focused on data protection. Requires API access for automated workflows in CI/CD pipelines or monitoring scripts.
