Does the ajs_user_id cookie require consent?

ajs_user_id 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 ajs_user_id 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, ajs_user_id included.

How to put ajs_user_id behind consent

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