TrustDebt
Consent + tracker QA

Pre-consent tracker checker for AI-built launch pages.

Cookie banners are easy to add and easy to fake by accident. TrustDebt checks the rendered page for analytics, ad pixels, third-party hosts, and consent signals so teams can fix trust leaks before traffic.

Practical checklist

Manual checks founders should run before traffic.

This page is the deeper founder checklist. The scanner covers visible public-page signals; backend, auth, payments, and database risks still need human review.

Inventory third-party scripts and hosts on the rendered page.

Check the rendered page, not just the design mockup, so launch blockers are visible before traffic arrives.

Look for consent UI language, accept/reject controls, and privacy preference paths.

Capture enough evidence that a founder, client, or developer knows exactly what needs to change.

Flag analytics and ad-pixel hints that may need gating or disclosure.

Turn the finding into a specific remediation step instead of a vague compliance note.

Check whether privacy links explain tracking before visitors submit data.

Check the rendered page, not just the design mockup, so launch blockers are visible before traffic arrives.

Use the AI Fix Prompt to move scripts behind a consent state.

Capture enough evidence that a founder, client, or developer knows exactly what needs to change.

Re-scan after deploying changes and save the public trust snapshot.

Common issues

What polished launches still miss.

For builders using GTM, GA, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, Clarity, TikTok, or ad scripts, these are the gaps that make a launch feel risky once real visitors, clients, or paid traffic arrive.

GTM loads before the banner is used

The most common trust leak is a banner that appears after the tracking container already loaded.

Reject does not mean reject

Some banners visually reject cookies while scripts keep running in the background.

Third-party hosts are invisible to the founder

AI templates, embeds, and marketing widgets can add hosts that are not obvious from the page design.

Deep dive

What builders using GTM, GA, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, Clarity, TikTok, or ad scripts need to know before they ship.

Invisible to founders, visible to everyone

Open incognito → DevTools Network → Reload. See requests to google-analytics.com, facebook.com/tr, hotjar.com before clicking anything? That's pre-consent tracking — the #1 trust issue in AI-built pages, and founders consistently don't know it's happening.

Which trackers matter

GA4 loads analytics before consent with IP. Meta Pixel fires for retargeting. Hotjar/Clarity records sessions. TikTok Pixel fires for ads. LinkedIn Insight Tag tracks B2B. Any of these loading before consent creates risk. Multiple trackers is a flagged pattern.

Consent Mode v2

Google's framework lets GTM/GA4 load in restricted mode without cookies until consent. If using GTM, implement Consent Mode v2. If not, ensure your CMP blocks all non-essential trackers until visitor choice.

The fix is straightforward

Moving trackers behind consent: 10-20 minutes with TrustDebt's AI Fix Prompt. Cost of not fixing: ad platform warnings, visitor distrust, PH threads, regulatory exposure. Cheapest insurance for a weekend-built product.

FAQ

Fast answers before you scan.

Does this certify GDPR compliance?

No. TrustDebt detects launch trust risks and tracker evidence. It does not certify GDPR compliance.

Which trackers does it look for?

TrustDebt checks common analytics and marketing hints including GTM, Google Analytics, Meta/Facebook, Hotjar, Clarity, TikTok, and other third-party hosts.

Why not just use a cookie tool?

Cookie tools manage consent. TrustDebt checks whether an AI-built launch page has broader trust gaps around consent, form-label evidence, legal links, accessibility, and proof.

Trust before traffic

Check the trust layer before visitors find the gaps.
