Is your banner telling the whole truth?
You have a banner. Skanopy compares what it declares to what actually fires, and places every exchange before or after the user’s choice. The gap between the two is precisely what an inspection comes looking for.
What the consent banner leaves undeclared.
You have installed a consent banner. But nothing tells you the app actually respects it: a banner collects a choice, it does not prove that choice is followed.
See what your apps really do.
What the banner leaves out
The actors actually active that the consent banner does not declare to the user.
Before consent
What fires before the user makes any choice, backed by the evidence.
A refusal respected
What keeps firing despite a refusal to be tracked.
The banner examined
A refusal as simple as acceptance, access to the policy, ease of changing your choice.
Your monetization, watched too
The partners that receive the user’s consent, and the ones deprived of it. Consent lost on the way may not earn what it should, in advertising as in measurement.
Every point is a finding from the report: captured on a real phone, proven and paired with the fix to make.
No technical skills required.

Your questions, our answers.
Your banner collects users’ choices; it does not check, on a real phone, that the app respects them. Skanopy is that independent check. And a banner in place does not stop a third party from firing before the choice or despite a refusal.
Skanopy observes the very first launch and records what leaves before the user makes any choice, the window where most apps fire.
Skanopy replays a journey where everything is refused, and records what keeps going despite that refusal.
Skanopy lists the actors actually active and flags the ones the banner leaves undeclared.
Skanopy shows, after each choice, which partners obtain it and which are deprived of it. A faulty setup is invisible from the outside; here, it reads actor by actor.
It can cost you revenue when it gets lost on the way. Skanopy shows both directions: the actors that fire before the choice or despite a refusal, and the ones that do not receive the consent the user gave. Google says so itself: without valid consent in the ad request, it falls back to limited ads, without personalization, a fallback that may impact revenue.
The report is factual, dated and reproducible: findings, not opinions. Enough to document a compliance file.
The findings map to the recommendation’s expectations: consent before any non-essential collection, refusal as simple as acceptance, information at the right moment. Skanopy documents the facts; you judge.
