Having a CMP in place doesn’t guarantee your website honors visitors’ choices, delivers on your privacy promises, or meets regulatory requirements. Recent research commissioned from Censuswide found that 66% of CMP users were confident their platform blocked pre-consent scripts, yet only 8% said that they were able to verify every script on their website was fully authorized. In separate real-world website audits, we found that 93% of websites failed to honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.

So how do you ensure that your website’s privacy consent controls work as intended and make sure you haven’t missed anything?

In this webinar, Feroot’s Ivan Tsarynny will walk you step by step through best practices for conducting a website consent audit with your existing resources, from defining scope to documenting findings. We’ll cover what loads before consent, banner visibility and controls, access to privacy disclosures, and how to catalog and classify scripts, vendors, and cookies. You’ll learn how to test acceptance, rejection, withdrawal, and GPC signals, then repeat those checks across pages, geographies, and languages to uncover gaps that a single test can miss.

We’ll close with ways to use AI and automation to accelerate testing, evidence collection, and ongoing verification, helping your team maintain thorough coverage as your website changes.

Key takeaways:

• Scope and conduct consent audits that check website behavior against privacy commitments and consent requirements.
• Identify coverage gaps across consent scenarios, pages, geographies, and languages.
• Document findings your team can act on.
• Use AI and automation to reduce audit effort and sustain ongoing verification.
