Cookie scan, subdomain

    Hi,

    If I run a Complianz cookie scan on a sub domain, would this pick up cookies that are on the main domain?
    …could mystagingsite.wpengine.com pick up cookies that are not related at all to
    mystagingsite from wpengine.com?
    I see cookies from Complianz scan that I can’t locate a anywhere
    (I have cleared cache and history)

    Thanks!

    Hi @aggk,

    I suspect that some Cookies from that domain had already been set in your browser at the time of running the Cookie Scan, and these items got reported in the scan as a result of that.

    What you can do to ensure a ‘clean’ scan is running it in a fresh Incognito window, which would make sure that there are no previously set cookies in the browser that are getting reported.

    Please also refer to our earlier article with recommendations on how to get the best results out of the scan: https://complianz.io/cookie-scan-results/

    Kind regards,
    Jarno
