Test With Sec-GPC
Send a request with Sec-GPC: 1, confirm the dashboard records the decision, then use GTM preview mode to verify mapped tags are blocked.
Integrations
Google Tag Manager
GPCGuard provides the endpoint decision. Your GTM implementation must decide which tags are suppressed when a request is HONORED.
Customer Wiring Checklist
- Install the dashboard-generated GPCGuard snippet on the same domain covered by your GTM container.
- Create a GTM variable for the GPCGuard decision outcome or handoff value your implementation exposes.
- Create blocking triggers or consent checks for tags that sell, share, or use data for targeted advertising.
- Confirm HONORED decisions suppress the mapped tags before they fire.
- Document fallback behavior for DENIED, FAILED, and no-signal-observed cases.
- Re-test after CMP, GTM, CDP, or ad-partner configuration changes.
Test With Browser Signal
Use a browser or extension that exposes navigator.globalPrivacyControl, then confirm the same suppression logic runs for the browser-path decision.
What GPCGuard Does Not Wire For You
GPCGuard does not automatically inspect every GTM tag, identify every sale/share/targeted advertising flow, or configure your vendor-specific suppression rules. Treat the decision record as an input to your tag governance process.
