Deep Scan
Learn how the Deep Scan feature works and how to unlock full potential
Overview
When you create your Visible Privacy instance, we scan your page to check for trackers, cookies, and other elements that we should be aware to block. With this new feature, we run a deeper analysis over your website, looking for any kind of pixel, tracker and other technologies that could affect you or your business. We've called it Deep Scan.
You can use our Deep Scan to unlock full potential of the Visible Privacy services, like the Cookie Declaration, the Cloud-hosted Cookie Policy, or even just to see a deeper analysis on the trackers of your site.
Entering Deep Scan for the first time
When you access the Deep Scan feature for the first time, you'll see a view like the one below, from which you can launch the analysis. Once you launch it, our deep analysis bot will run several times over your website under different scenarios, to try and collect all the necessary data.
Beware that our deep scan can take between 24-48 hours to complete. Please, we kindly ask you to be patient, but if the analysis results don't appear after that period of time, contact our Support team which is available at [email protected].
Checking the results
Once the analysis is completed, you will be able to see the results of the Deep Scan. These results contain mainly the total number of cookies (and/or trackers) that are served by your website, with the appropriate distribution on their Purpose.
Privacy Health
You will see that your page might have under 100% of "Privacy Health". This means that some of your cookies were not classified under one of our legal categories automatically. You can categorise them by simply using the Cookie List table and indicating the appropriate purpose for each one.
Don't worry if you don't have full knowledge on those unclassified cookies, as this does not affect the functionality of your consent banner.
