Legal basis: This violates ePrivacy Directive Article 5(3), Article 29 Working Party Opinion 9/2014, and EDPB Guidelines 2/2023. Browser fingerprinting reads device characteristics such as screen size, fonts and plugins to recognise the visitor. The Article 29 Working Party confirmed in Opinion 9/2014 that Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive applies to device fingerprinting, and the EDPB's Guidelines 2/2023 build on that. Fingerprinting therefore needs consent even when no cookie is set, unless an exemption applies.
No tracking cookies set before consent were counted as violations.

This GDPR compliance scan of useofcrypto.com 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.
Immediate action is recommended: audit all third-party scripts, implement a Consent Management Platform (CMP) that blocks non-essential trackers before consent, and verify compliance through re-scanning.
