Cookie Text Scanner
Review cookie-banner or policy text for common disclosure elements and highlight wording that may need attention. It is built for quick, practical review when you are cleaning examples, preparing documentation, or checking text before it leaves your workspace. Results stay editable, so you can inspect every change instead of treating an automated match as final.

What this tool does
The Cookie Text Scanner applies a focused set of browser-based rules and returns an editable result. Counts describe what the rules found; they do not certify that a document is safe.
How it works: The tool normalizes the supplied text, applies purpose-specific patterns or field rules, and presents both a readable result and structured metrics.
Keep an untouched source copy until a human reviewer approves the processed version.
Example
Input: We use cookies to improve your experience. By continuing to browse, you agree to cookies.
Result: The matching value or policy element is transformed or reported with a clear review note.
Use cases
- Preparing safe examples for documentation
- Reviewing exports before they are shared
- Drafting internal privacy workflow text
- Creating a second-pass checklist for manual review
Tips for better output
- Work on a copy, not the only original.
- Include labels around values when possible.
- Review both missed items and false positives.
- Check Unicode, spacing, and punctuation variants.
- Have a second person review high-risk material.
Processing details
All analysis runs in the current browser tab with plain JavaScript. The output can be copied as text, and structured rows are available to the page download controls when appropriate.
Formats vary by country, organization, and context. Obfuscated values, OCR errors, unusual separators, and unlabeled identifiers may not be recognized.
Frequently asked questions
Does the Cookie Text Scanner send my text to a server?
No. The tool processes the text in your browser. Avoid pasting live sensitive data into any device you do not trust.
Can I rely on every match or result?
No. Pattern-based checks can miss unusual formats or flag harmless text. Review the output before using it.
What should I test before sharing the result?
Check the original and processed versions side by side, confirm the intended values changed, and verify that surrounding text still makes sense.
Does this tool replace a privacy or legal review?
No. It is a practical drafting and screening aid, not a compliance determination or legal opinion.
Can I use the output in production?
You can use it as a starting point, but a responsible person should validate formats, policy requirements, and remaining identifiers first.
