Step 1
Open a public page
Use Chrome like your customer would. The extension reads only the active tab after you open it.
Chrome companion for CookieSentry
Run a GDPR cookie check from any tab.
Check a live page while you browse, get a plain passed or failed verdict, and send the evidence report to a developer, client, or privacy owner before the issue gets lost.

Step 2
Run a fresh GDPR check
CookieSentry collects local page signals and starts a cloud scan for the pre-consent baseline.
Step 3
Share the evidence
Copy a short summary, open the full report, save PDF evidence, or send the report link by email.
Built for the moment a check fails
A failed scan should start a fix, not a Slack debate.
The extension keeps the important evidence close to the verdict: the scanned URL, scan time, top risk, page signals, report link, and upgrade path when free checks are exhausted.

Monetization path
Free checks create urgency. Monitoring captures the budget.
The extension is the entry point for agencies, developers, and privacy teams. CookieSentry monitoring is the paid product when they need repeated checks, alerts, and evidence history.
Scheduled checks
Marketing tags change often. Monitoring catches regressions after launches, CMP changes, and new ad tools.
Change alerts
Get notified when a new tracker or consent risk appears instead of finding it during an audit.
Evidence history
Keep timestamped scan records so a fixed issue stays documented instead of disappearing into chat history.
Is the Chrome extension a replacement for my consent banner?
No. CookieSentry is an independent check that shows whether cookies or trackers load before consent. You keep your CMP or banner and use CookieSentry to verify that it actually blocks non-essential tracking.
Why use the extension instead of only the website scanner?
The website scanner is good for planned audits. The extension is faster when you are browsing a client site, reviewing a page after release, or explaining a failed scan to a developer.
What happens after the free checks run out?
The extension shows a rate-limit notice and points users to CookieSentry monitoring. Paid monitoring is the right workflow for teams that need repeated checks, alerts, and evidence history.
Start with one tab. Keep watch with monitoring.
Use the extension to catch the visible issue. Use CookieSentry monitoring when the website needs ongoing evidence.
