Consent & tracking report for cleancause.com

Consent risk grade: F
Based on an automated pre-consent tracking scan on July 9, 2026.

Critical risk. A video player shares this page with pre-consent pixels — the VPPA footprint plaintiffs target — on top of heavy pre-consent tracking.

On a cold page load — before any consent was given — this page sent data to 1 third-party tracker (2 requests). No consent banner was detected at all.

Sending data to advertising and analytics third parties before a visitor consents is what powers the wave of CIPA "wiretapping" demand letters in the U.S. and GDPR / ePrivacy enforcement in the EU — and every item below is fixable.

VPPA exposure (Video Privacy Protection Act). When a marketing pixel fires on a page with video, plaintiffs argue it shares "what video this person watched" with a third party (e.g. Meta) without consent. The VPPA carries statutory damages of ~$2,500 per violation, and this video+pixel combination is the single hottest privacy-litigation pattern right now.

How to fix it: Gate the pixel until consent, embed video via youtube-nocookie.com (or a privacy-mode equivalent), or remove marketing pixels from pages that host video. Any one of these breaks the footprint.

What we found, and how to fix it

Google Tag Manager sends visitor data to a third-party analytics service before consent.

Google Tag Manager · Analytics · 2 requests before consent

US: CIPA EU: GDPR/ePrivacy Sends identifiers: id

Why it matters: Analytics like GA4 set identifiers and report the visit to Google before the visitor agrees — cited under CIPA in the US and treated as non-essential tracking that requires prior consent under GDPR/ePrivacy in the EU.

How to fix it: Gate analytics behind consent. For Google Analytics, use Consent Mode v2 with analytics_storage defaulting to "denied" and flipping to "granted" only after the visitor accepts — you keep the measurement without the pre-consent exposure.

Fix these before a demand letter finds them — free

The free ForensicConsent browser extension finds every tracker that fires before consent on your own pages, flags the VPPA footprint, and gives you the fix recipe for each — at no cost. Run it, gate your trackers, and re-check this page anytime.

Own this site? Gate your trackers behind consent, then re-scan — this report updates automatically, and comes down entirely once you pass.

This is an automated scan of the page’s public behavior on a single cold load; it reports what the page transmitted before any consent, not a legal verdict. Exposure flags show the public legal basis these patterns are cited under — they are informational, not legal advice. See our methodology.

How this report was produced

Automated scan of cleancause.com as it publicly behaved on , using the ForensicConsent detection ruleset (2026.06.22). The captured pre-consent requests and these results are sealed with a tamper-evident hash (12a9c09d6872c506…). We report only what the page publicly transmitted before consent at that time.
