Wat er gebeurt

A tag manager loads measurement or advertising tags at runtime, so the identifiers of those tags are not in the delivered HTML. A check that reads the source therefore reports absence while the traffic shows presence. The container is also the reason an operator can change what runs without changing the site, which is why a source-based finding says nothing about a different day either.

Waarom het ertoe doet

A researcher who checks only the source concludes that tracking stopped when it did not, and publishes reassurance that the traffic contradicts. The same error runs the other way in a dispute: an operator can point at a clean source while the container keeps loading what it always did.

Veelvoorkomende oorzaken

  • tags migrated from hardcoded to container-managed
  • marketing team with dashboard access and no deployment
  • a check built on fetching HTML because that is cheap, without a capture beside it

Dit is het níet

A recipient that is genuinely present and unnamed in the privacy statement is Undisclosed recipient, a fault of the system. This entry is about the claim: absence from the source is not absence from the wire.

Hoe je het vaststelt

Indicator

The finding rests on the fetched HTML document, and a network capture of the same page shows a property or measurement identifier that the document does not contain. The difference between the two sets is the fault in the claim.

De grenzen van deze bevinding

Wat dit patroon zou weerleggen

  • The identifier is present in the source but assembled dynamically.machinaal te toetsende bevinding vervalt
  • The initiator is another script rather than the container.machinaal te toetsende bevinding krijgt een ander patroon

Wat dit patroon níet vaststelt

  • harm; the catalogue standardises a finding so it can be referred to, it does not weigh it
  • severity; there is no score here, by design. Weighing belongs to whoever applies the entry to a concrete case
  • unlawfulness; that is for a supervisory authority or a court
  • intent; a fault is usually a build decision, not a plan
  • absence: not finding it in one capture is not evidence that it is not there

Juridisch kader

Veelgehoorde tegenwerpingen

We removed the tracking; it is not in our code.

Absence from the source is not absence from the traffic. The container is the reliable indicator, and its version history shows what ran when.
