Google Santa Tracker. Of course, Google knows! - the site clearly targets under-age kids; - there is the usual "we use cookies" popup. At least for me (North America), that popup only gives an "OK" option or a link to explain what are cookies.. There is no clearly visible consent nor privacy policy (in fact, you have to search for the privacy policy and it leads to the default Google one) - is this #COPPA compliant? - the site uses at least Google Analytics, Google Maps API, Google Fonts and Firebase. There's a page listing the 3rd party libraries in use, but nothing about which Google services are used and their purpose... Scanning with BlackLight from The Markup or PageXRay from Dr. Fou - The Independent doesn't reveal much - as if there was a mechanism to block such audits (or simply because it's a Single Page App). Clearly, there are several cookies being used by the site. #digitalmarketing #google #NoConsentNoTracking #dataethics #dataprivacy #privacy #googleanalytics
