Overview
Smart Data Protector
The Smart Data Protector blocks a list of supported technologies automatically.
If you know where the technologies are implemented on the page, the easiest way is to search for the PID (Project Initiation Document) in the “Elements” section of your browser’s developer tools.
If you do not know where the technologies are implemented, you need to check the “Network” tab of your browser’s developer tools manually.
How to check the Smart Data Protector implementation on the “Elements” tab
Deny the consent on the page.
Go to “Elements” and search for “pid”.
If you see a pid="template id", it means that the Smart Data Protector is blocking this piece of code.
Please run the same test after you have given consent: this way it’s possible to check if you have forgotten to add some data processing services to the Services Settings as the Smart Data Protector blocks all supported technologies even if they have not been added to the Service Settings.
How to check the Smart Data Protector implementation on the “Network”
In the “Network” tag you can see everything that’s loaded on your page. Here you can check if the technologies are loaded on the page without consent.
Please note that some scripts of technologies are downloaded without consent. However, the scripts are not executed - this is a limitation of the Smart Data Protector.
