Does the fs_uid cookie require consent?
fs_uid 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 fs_uid 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, fs_uid included.
How to put fs_uid behind consent
Remove the FullStory snippet from your site and add your FullStory ID under Integrations in Consentify instead. Consentify then loads FullStory only after the visitor has accepted analytics, so fs_uid is never set before consent.
