Does the _ceg.s cookie require consent?

_ceg.s is used for analytics, so under the GDPR and the ePrivacy rules it may only be set after the visitor has agreed. Showing a banner is not enough on its own: the cookie must not be set before the visitor clicks accept.

Does your site set _ceg.s before consent?

A free scan loads your site the way a new visitor sees it and lists every cookie that is set before anyone has said yes, _ceg.s included.

How to put _ceg.s behind consent

Remove the Crazy Egg snippet from your site and add your Crazy Egg ID under Integrations in Consentify instead. Consentify then loads Crazy Egg only after the visitor has accepted analytics, so _ceg.s is never set before consent.
