Does the cto_bundle cookie require consent?

cto_bundle is used for advertising, 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 cto_bundle 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, cto_bundle included.

How to put cto_bundle behind consent

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