Summary

*** OUTDATED *** This extension only handles TCFv1 and is therefore obsolete unless work is done to integrate related pull request on github. Project is currently abandoned.

This browser extension shows you whether the consent registered by some cookie banners corresponds to your choice.

It queries Consent Management Providers (CMPs) of IAB Europe's Transparency & Consent Framework (TCF) as a third party (like advertisers), making it possible to see consent set by CMPs in real time. In other words, you can see whether consent registered by cookie banners is actually the consent you gave. Will only work with cookie banners of IAB Europe's TCF. See the presentation of our study of the TCF: https://www-sop.inria.fr/members/Nataliia.Bielova/cookiebanners/
