As of , autocosmetix.co.uk has a GDPR compliance score of 0/100 with 9 pre-consent tracking violations detected.
Only Privacy Score 100 means full compliance. These violations mean that before you could even click the Cookie Consent banner, this website already collected your personal data and shared it with third parties. Learn why this matters (our blog) →
Who is responsible? The website owner is solely responsible for these violations and in general often benefits monetarily (directly or indirectly) from collecting and sharing your data without your consent.

autocosmetix.co.uk has a GDPR compliance score of 0/100.
A score below 50 indicates serious GDPR compliance failures. Multiple high-severity trackers or advertising scripts load before consent, exposing the website to potential fines of up to €20 million or 4% of annual global turnover under GDPR Article 83.
6 trackers detected loading before user consent:
Legal basis: This violates GDPR Article 6(1)(a) and ePrivacy Directive Article 5(3). Analytics trackers read information from the visitor's device and send it to the analytics provider together with the visitor's IP address, which can be personal data under the GDPR. The ePrivacy Directive (Article 5(3)) requires consent before that happens unless it is strictly necessary for a service the visitor asked for. Analytics generally does not qualify; only narrowly configured audience measurement can, under national guidance such as the CNIL's.
Legal basis: This violates GDPR Article 6(1)(a), ePrivacy Directive Article 5(3), and CJEU Planet49 (C-673/17). Advertising trackers profile visitors for targeted ads, which needs the visitor's consent. The Court of Justice of the EU held in Planet49 (C-673/17, 1 October 2019) that a pre-ticked checkbox is not valid consent: consent requires an active choice by the visitor.
This GDPR compliance scan of autocosmetix.co.uk was performed by GDPR Scanner, a pre-consent privacy scanning tool. The scan captures all trackers, cookies, and third-party scripts that load before a user clicks any consent button.
Under GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), websites must obtain explicit consent before processing personal data. Any tracker or cookie that fires before consent is a potential violation of EU privacy law.
A privacy score of 100/100 means the website loads zero trackers and zero tracking cookies before the user gives consent. This is the standard required by GDPR Article 5(1)(a) and Article 7.
Essential cookies (session management, security tokens) and first-party functional cookies do not incur penalties, as they are covered by the legitimate interest legal basis. See an example: playhth.com scores 100/100.
Legal basis: This violates GDPR Article 6(1)(a), ePrivacy Directive Article 5(3), and CJEU Planet49 (C-673/17). Advertising trackers profile visitors for targeted ads, which needs the visitor's consent. The Court of Justice of the EU held in Planet49 (C-673/17, 1 October 2019) that a pre-ticked checkbox is not valid consent: consent requires an active choice by the visitor.
Legal basis: This violates GDPR Article 6(1) and LG München I (Case 3 O 17493/20). Loading a resource from a third-party server sends the visitor's IP address to that server. The Munich Regional Court held in January 2022 that a dynamic IP address is personal data for the website operator, so passing it on needs a legal basis, and legitimate interest did not cover a resource the site could have hosted itself.
