Questions people ask

What does Consent Gate HTML Lint actually do?

It reads your HTML and names every third-party script, iframe and link tag that contacts a tracker before the visitor has consented. Fifteen rules cover Google Analytics, Meta and TikTok pixels, hotlinked Google Fonts, YouTube embeds, reCAPTCHA, session recorders, Maps frames, inline cookie writes and missing Consent Mode defaults.

Who is it for?

Freelance web developers and small agencies who build landing pages, WordPress themes and static sites for clients in the EU, the EEA and the UK. It is aimed at the person who writes the markup, not at the lawyer who reviews it afterwards, and it runs on the file open in the editor.

Why are free tools not enough for this?

Browser devtools and Lighthouse list every request a page makes, but they never say which of those requests needs prior consent under ePrivacy Article 5(3). Cookie scanners only see a deployed URL. This reads the source before you deploy and cites the rule and the fix for each tag.

What is free and what needs a licence?

Checking the file open in your editor is free forever, with all fifteen rules, line numbers, statutes and fixes; the free web page does the same for pasted markup. A licence adds the workspace sweep across every HTML file at once and the dated per-file report you keep.

What does the same check cost otherwise?

A German court ordered EUR 100 in damages to one visitor over a single hotlinked Google Fonts request, in LG Munchen I, 3 O 17493/20 of 20 January 2022. Under GDPR Article 83(5) the exposure reaches EUR 20 million or 4% of worldwide annual turnover. The licence is 29 dollars once.
