The CookieDetox Observatory
Forensic Investigation & GDPR Engineering Cell
Independent Privacy Engineers & Legal Specialists
The CookieDetox Observatory réunit des ingénieurs réseau, des experts en cybersécurité et des juristes spécialisés en droit du numérique et protection des données personnelles. Notre mission : décrypter la conformité réelle des traceurs web face aux exigences strictes de la CNIL et du RGPD.
Through independent forensic audits, we inspect pre-consent network leaks, Google Consent Mode v2 implementations, and market CMP practices with complete vendor neutrality.
Core expertise: GDPR, ePrivacy directive, Consent Mode v2, Server-Side Tagging, EU DPA rulings (CNIL, AEPD, DPC), and cross-border data transfers.
Investigation Charter & Technical Methodology
1 Forensic Network Packet Analysis
Our audits never stop at inspecting surface HTML tags or the visual appearance of a cookie banner. Our headless engine intercepts every HTTP/WebSocket frame, captures outgoing network calls, and flags tracker leakage before any user interaction.
2 Commercial Neutrality & Zero Kickbacks
The CookieDetox Observatory n'accepte aucune affiliation, commission d'apporteur d'affaires ou sponsoring de la part des éditeurs de CMP (Didomi, Axeptio, OneTrust, Cookiebot). Nos comparatifs et verdicts d'audit reflètent exclusivement des faits techniques mesurés.
3 Regulatory Monitoring & European Enforcement
Our evaluation matrix continuously incorporates CNIL enforcement sanctions, European Data Protection Board (EDPB) guidelines, CJEU case law, and international rulings on cookie dark patterns and Google Consent Mode v2.
4 Transparency & Evidentiary Reproducibility
Each audit yields an immutable, timestamped technical report detailing third-party endpoint URLs, set-cookie headers, observed TTL lifespans, and the exact consent parameter payloads delivered to ad-tech servers.
