User reviews

Very very useful extension for anyone dealing with GDPR / Consent management.

In the latest version 2.2.6, we have resolved two key issues: 1. Previously, at the initial CMP state (where CMP is displayed but no user action has been taken), our validator detected the presence of a CMP API but failed to populate any results from TCF API calls. With this update, the CMP validator will correctly populate the summary and API sections with values retrieved from TCF APIs. 2. Since version 2.2.4 (released on December 7, 2023), our CMP validator attempted to load a file from https://vendor-list.consensu.org/v3/archives/vendor-list-vundefined.json in cases where there were errors loading basic CMP data, resulting in a 403 Forbidden error. This issue has been rectified."

Improved extension, which helps you audit TCF compliance from your Consent Management Platform. Further improvements could include (1) adding support for Google ATP vendors (2) providing feedback to publisher/CMP Vendor / IAB Europe on misconfigured CMPs (e.g. loading too late, not firing, etc) to drive compliance. My guess is the tool is used almost exclusively within the digital media industry so later would be useful.
