The Technical Problem Solved
Google Tag Manager loads before consent is granted, violating GDPR and TTDSG. ConsentGate fixes this with a consent-aware proxy that respects user privacy.
The Problem
GTM Loads Before Consent
Google Tag Manager fires immediately when the page loads, sending data to Google before user consent is granted.
GDPR Violations
This violates GDPR Article 6(1)(a) and the German TTDSG, potentially resulting in fines up to €20 million.
Legal Gray Areas
Current solutions are complex, unreliable, or don't work with all consent management platforms.
Current GTM Implementation
Browser → GTM → Google (Data sent immediately)
