Scan Report

Your online store collects cookies from visitors and loads third-party scripts. However, most merchants are unaware of the exact cookies and scripts used on their site. Unless you're also a web developer, tracking this manually can be nearly impossible.


With our built-in Cookie and Script Scanner, you can automatically detect and review all tracking technologies running on your Shopify store, effortlessly and accurately.



What does the Pandectes Scanner do?


Our scanner performs a full site audit to identify:

  • Cookies (first- and third-party)
  • Scripts
  • HTML5 local/session storage
  • IFrames
  • Tracking pixels


Based on the scan results, Pandectes automatically creates a Cookie Declaration tailored to your store, an essential part of achieving compliance with laws such as GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and more.


How does the scanner work?


The scanner simulates real user interactions, scrolling, clicking, and navigating, just like a human visitor. This behavior is designed to trigger all scripts and trackers that normally run when a customer browses your store.


You can think of it as rustling the digital bushes, forcing hidden trackers to reveal themselves. This helps uncover cookies that don’t appear on initial page load and might otherwise go undetected.


Where can I access my scan report?


  • Free plan users:

You can view your latest scan by navigating to Reports > Scan Report in the top-right menu.


  • Paid plan users:

Access your full scan history through Dashboard > Reports > Scan Report or directly via the Reports menu.


Each report includes categorized lists of all detected tracking technologies and allows you to update your cookie policy accordingly.


Are scan results saved?


Yes. All scan results are securely stored within the Pandectes app. You can always access the most recent report and use it to keep your cookie declarations and compliance documentation up to date.


Why this matters


Without a complete overview of your store’s tracking technologies, you cannot ensure true compliance. Pandectes makes it easy to:

  • Detect what’s running on your store
  • Generate a transparent cookie declaration
  • Stay compliant with global data privacy laws


Stay informed. Stay compliant. Let Pandectes handle the scanning for you.
