Use case
Cookie compliance for ecommerce teams
Ecommerce stacks pile on fast: analytics, ads, reviews, chat, personalization, and payment plugins. Each release can change what fires on checkout. CookieComply scans the storefront you ship — homepage, collection, cart, and thank-you page — so growth and legal agree on what actually loads, not what last year’s spreadsheet said.
Where stores get surprised
- Checkout and post-purchase pages often load more third parties than the homepage — especially pixels that only fire after Add to cart or Order complete.
- Shopify apps and GTM containers can inject cookies your theme team never listed in the privacy policy.
- Reject all is meaningless if retargeting still fires — a live capture shows whether the banner is respected.
- Seasonal campaigns add short-lived tags; a quick scan before peak traffic avoids last-minute legal escalations.
Suggested scan set
- Homepage and a top landing page from paid or email traffic.
- Product detail page with reviews and recommendations enabled.
- Cart and checkout (or staging equivalent with the same apps).
- Order confirmation / thank-you page where conversion tags concentrate.
CookieComply vs your CMP alone
Your CMP configures categories and shows the banner. CookieComply verifies behavior on the live shop: which cookies appear, when, and whether classifications match what you tell customers. Use both — CMP for consent collection, CookieComply for proof and refresh after app installs or theme updates.
Frequently asked questions
- Do we need to install anything on Shopify?
- No site-wide script is required for an audit. Use the Chrome extension on your store URL (production or preview). For ongoing monitoring, teams often scan after each major app or theme change.
- Will this slow down our store?
- Audits run in your browser session; visitors are not affected. CookieComply is not a visitor-facing tag on your storefront.
