GUIDE

Cookie Banner Handling

Prevent overlays from blocking DOM analysis and avoid false positives.

Why overlays matter

Cookie banners and modals can hide content and break keyboard focus during scans.

  • Remove overlays before scanning
  • Re-run scans when banners change
  • Keep a record of banner vendors

Validation

Confirm the DOM is fully visible and interactive after banner removal.

  • Check that navigation is accessible
  • Verify focus order
  • Validate primary CTAs are visible
