Privacy check before you hand off a client site
Ship the design and the privacy basics. Scan the staging or production URL, close pre-consent trackers, and leave the client with a clear score — not a surprise complaint later.
Why handoffs fail privacy reviews
Themes, pixels, and “just one more” marketing tags often land after the proposal. Clients then face cookie banners that do nothing while GA and ads fire on first paint.
A 10-minute PrivBeacon scan before go-live catches the embarrassing gaps while you still have access to the repo and tag manager.
Simple agency loop
1) Free-scan the client URL. 2) Fix consent gating and remove dead pixels. 3) Generate policies that match what you found. 4) Optional: earn a Certified Private badge the client can show. 5) Rescan after the next campaign install.
Use multi-site plans when you manage a portfolio — flat pricing by sites and scans, not pageviews.
FAQ
Can I scan a client site without their PrivBeacon login?
Yes. The public scanner accepts any URL. For ongoing monitoring, badge management, and saved history, use a PrivBeacon account (yours or the client’s).
What should I deliver at handoff?
A fresh scan summary, list of remaining risks, consent/banner status, and links to policies. Optionally enable the verifiable privacy badge once the score qualifies.
