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)
