How to check third-party cookies before consent
To check whether third-party cookies are set before consent, review cookies created before any recorded consent choice and identify which are associated with third-party services or non-essential purposes. CertScore.ai automates this by observing cookie timing, request context, and vendor evidence during public website scans. The output is a reviewable signal that helps teams compare live behavior with consent-platform and tag-manager configuration.

What CertScore observes
CertScore.ai reviews cookie domains, names, vendor-like hosts, and consent timing to surface cookies that may deserve closer review.
The result is a business-facing review signal, not a conclusion about whether a cookie is allowed or prohibited.
Review caveats
Some cookies are technical, short-lived, or connected to a prior visitor state. Others may be set by embedded services whose purpose needs vendor documentation.
Use the observed evidence to check tag-manager rules, consent-platform categories, and vendor contracts before deciding what should change.
