Overview

Are you seeing this warning message in your browser dev console?

If you are seeing this message you want to take action immediately as your data may not be reaching your destinations and there is a mismatch in your configuration and how your site is passing consent values.

How you resolve this warning depends on your current scenario:

• You have an active consent banner on your site
• You do not currently have a consent banner on your site for any regions

You Have an Active Consent Banner on Your Site

In this scenario, you have an active consent banner on your site. The problem is that default or updated consent values are not being passed to your Google Consent Mode. This could be for a variety of different reasons. Steps to troubleshoot:

• Review what you have followed in our guide for your recommended consent management provider (CMP). These guides provide instructions on how to enable Google Consent Mode in the CMP, or provide a Google Tag Manager container to import to set defaults.
• If you followed our guides and are still seeing this error, reach out to your consent management provider for assistance in passing default and updated consent values into Google Consent Mode.

You Do Not Currently Have a consent banner on your site for any regions

In this scenario, you have consent enabled within Elevar and do not have consent enabled on your site. You'll want to disable the consent option within Elevar.
