Accessibility Statement

No accessibility statement detected

REVIEW

No accessibility statement detected

Sites are increasingly expected to publish an accessibility statement. Required by EU Web Accessibility Directive 2016/2102 for public-sector bodies; recommended best practice elsewhere. Common URLs: /accessibility, /accessibility-statement, /a11y. Detection is by link URL and anchor text, in a limited set of languages, so this is an unconfirmed absence.

Tracking Pixel Inventory

1 tracking pixel(s) on the page

REVIEW

1 tracking pixel(s) on the page

1 tracking pixel(s) on the page (1 domain(s))

Tracking pixels are 1x1 / 2x2 cross-origin <img> tags that fire a GET request when the browser renders them -- no JavaScript, no cookies needed. They're how trackers survive when users disable JS or block third-party cookies, and they bypass most ad-blocker rules that target script src. Each one needs explicit disclosure under GDPR Art 7 / CCPA / ePrivacy because the request itself transmits the page URL + IP + user-agent + referrer to the tracker. Audit each surfaced domain: is it disclosed in your privacy policy? Is it conditional on the cookie banner? Affected domains: verifi.podscribe.com.

Cross-Site Cookies (SameSite=None)

Action

4 cross-site cookie(s) (4 tracking-shaped, 0 essential)

REVIEW

4 cross-site cookie(s) (4 tracking-shaped, 0 essential)

4 tracking-shaped cross-site cookie(s): ascv, sess, ssl_sess, stvi

Cookies with SameSite=None travel in cross-site contexts (third-party iframes, cross-origin POSTs, embedded widgets). With third-party cookies dying in Chrome/Firefox, the legitimate use cases narrowed to SSO + payment widgets + federated auth. Each tracking-shaped cookie surfaced here is a cross-site analytics or ad-tech surface that needs explicit privacy-policy disclosure beyond basic cookie banner consent. Audit each: is it conditional on consent? Does the privacy policy name the recipient + purpose? Switching to SameSite=Lax disables the cross-site travel without breaking same-site analytics.

No cookie consent banner detected

5 unclassified cookie(s) set before any consent step

These cookies could not be matched to a known tracker or to a known essential-cookie family, so the scanner cannot tell whether consent was required. Verify each is strictly necessary; if any is analytics or advertising, it needs consent first. Unrecognized (treated as non-essential): ssl_sess, assumed_login_flag, sess, ascv, stvi

Why this matters

Cookies the scanner could not identify were set before any consent UI existed -- verify each is strictly necessary.

These cookies matched neither a known tracker nor a known essential-cookie family, so this is a prompt to check, not a finding of violation. Name each cookie's purpose: session, CSRF, load-balancer affinity and locale are exempt under ePrivacy Art 5(3); analytics and advertising are not and must wait for consent. Renaming cookies to something recognizable also helps every other scanner your customers run.
