Tracking requests after Reject
After Reject, the check recorded requests to tracking services. A request shows that the page contacted the service; it does not show what was sent.
What to do next: Review what sent this request and how it responds to the banner choice. If it should wait for consent, adjust the tag or banner settings, then run the check again.

No Google consent update after Accept
After Accept, the check saw no consent update sent to Google tags, so those tags may not learn the choice.
What to do next: Check that the banner tool's Google Consent Mode setting sends an update when a visitor accepts.
Technical details
EU_GCM_006_NO_CONSENT_UPDATE_AFTER_ACCEPT
state_unattributed
No Google Consent Mode consent update observed after the accept interaction: consent_update_detected=false
The scan interacted with the consent banner's accept control and then observed no Google Consent Mode consent update; the Google consent-mode source records the update call as the mechanism by which a consent platform communicates the user's choice to Google tags, so no update after an accept means the recorded choice was not signalled on this page load.
? Worth a look
No saved consent record after Accept
After Accept, the check found no consent cookie, no consent entry in local storage and no change in Google's consent state.
What to do next: Check that the banner tool saves the visitor's choice, and look at its storage settings.
Technical details
EU_GCM_012_CONSENT_NOT_PERSISTED
state_unattributed
No consent-persistence mechanism observed after the accept interaction: gcm_consent_persistence=none_detected
The scan interacted with the consent banner's accept control and then found no consent cookie, no consent entry in local storage and no change in Google's internal consent state; the Google consent-mode source records that consent mode does not itself save consent choices, so with no platform-side persistence the recorded choice is not carried beyond this page load.

Cookies set after Reject
After Reject, the check recorded cookies that were not there before and are not strictly necessary. Cookies recognised as strictly necessary, such as the one that remembers the banner choice, are not counted.
What to do next: Find which tool sets these cookies after Reject and whether it listens to the banner choice. If it should not run after Reject, adjust its settings, then check again.
Technical details
EU_POST_REJECT_001_CONSENT_NOT_RESPECTED
post_reject, pre_consent
Non-exempt post-reject cookie additions observed: count=2
The scan observed non-exempt cookies added after the reject action; this indicates storage activity continuing after a recorded reject signal per the Article 5(3) source.
