The 30-Minute GTM PECR Audit Every UK WooCommerce Store Needs
The Data (Use and Access) Act has been live in the UK since February 5, 2026, aligning PECR fines with UK GDPR at up to £17.5M or 4% global turnover, and adding an instigator clause that puts direct liability on the WooCommerce store operator regardless of who installed the tags. A 30-minute DevTools audit — private window, consent banner untouched, five filter strings (googleadservices, doubleclick, facebook, linkedin, hotjar) — surfaces roughly 80% of pre-consent tag firing. The durable architectural answer is server-side capture that removes browser-side third-party loaders entirely, leaving nothing to audit.
