container audit

GTM-NW5R8FQC

This container ships 42 hand-written scripts (22 KB of JavaScript) to every visitor — more than 90% of the 46,522 containers we have measured. That is an application's worth of code, delivered as tag configuration.

9 third-party hosts reachable from its tags — more than 80% of the 46,522 containers we have measured.
Measurement runs through a server container on its own domain — the mark of a mature setup, and rarer than the tooling vendors imply.

What we observed

A real browser loaded gant.com a month ago and recorded every request it made. This is what happened, as distinct from what the container is configured to do. It is one page load — anything that fires only deeper in the site did not fire here.

Container loaded from gtm.gant.com — the site's own host, and googletagmanager.com

Measurement sent to gtm.gant.com — not Google

Measurement runs through the site's own infrastructure. Part of the tag library still comes from Google, which is normal — the two are loaded separately.

Forwarded to GA4 ×3 — read from the measurement id, not the hostname

Consent OneTrust answered its own API. Measurement fired beforehand but carried no identifier — analytics_storage was denied, which is Consent Mode working as designed rather than a gap. no new hosts appeared after granting — either the tags are ungated, or they fire regardless and record the decision. Google recorded gcs=G100 (all denied).

Third parties contacted 25 hosts — cdn-eu.dynamicyield.com, images.ctfassets.net, static.cloudflareinsights.com, cdn.impactcommerce.io, st-eu.dynamicyield.com, www.googletagmanager.com, pagead2.googlesyndication.com, fast.wistia.com, and 17 more

Where the data goes

Confirmed — a browser watched this site send measurement data to gtm.gant.com, not to Google. observed on gant.com More info »

Findings

Ordered by consequence. review has a concrete cost when it bites; info is real but depends on your setup. Seen is how common it is across the containers we have measured — reported separately on purpose, because common and harmless are different claims.

reviewWrites cookies directly (4)

4 pieces of custom code set cookies in code.

WhyCookies set this way bypass GTM's consent settings, because the consent checks live in the tag templates rather than in raw JavaScript.

CheckIf any of these cookies are used for analytics or advertising, confirm they are still gated on a consent decision.

Seenseen in 21.2% of 46,522 containers measured

infoLoads JavaScript from another host (4)

4 pieces of custom code fetch and run JavaScript from another host.

WhyWhatever that host serves executes with full access to the page — it can read the DOM, cookies and form fields. The code is not in this container, so it can change at any time without any change here.

CheckConfirm you recognise every host below and that someone owns the relationship. A host you cannot name is the one to chase.

Seenseen in 54.4% of 46,522 containers measured

infoConsent configuration detected (4)

The container declares one or more consent signals.

WhyConsent handling is present in the container. This describes what the artifact declares; what actually happened on the page is measured separately, above.

CheckConfirm these settings match the consent policy you intend to enforce, and compare them with the before-and-after observation.

Seenseen in 44.6% of 46,522 containers measured

infoUses browser storage (3)

3 pieces of custom code read or write localStorage or sessionStorage.

WhyBrowser storage persists across visits and is not covered by cookie consent tooling, so it is easy to overlook when auditing what you keep on a visitor's device.

CheckConfirm nothing personal is being kept there, and that it is covered by your privacy notice.

Seenseen in 23.3% of 46,522 containers measured

infoVendor IDs written into custom code (1)

1 vendor ID is pasted directly into custom HTML rather than held in a variable or template.

WhyChanging a property, pixel or account then means editing every tag that mentions it, and any one that gets missed keeps sending to the old destination indefinitely.

CheckFine if the ID never changes. If you have ever migrated a property, check that none of these still point at the old one.

What the custom templates can do

Custom templates are third-party code shipped inside the container. Injecting scripts and running page globals is ordinary for them — most tag templates need it to work — so this is an inventory, not a warning. It lists the capability each template declares so you can match it against templates you meant to install.

What this audit describes

Containers change. These findings describe one specific artifact, and you can re-fetch it to check this reading.

Container	`GTM-NW5R8FQC`
Published version	`66` — the identity of this configuration. It changes only when someone publishes.
Read at	2026-08-13 13:51:13 UTC (a month ago)

Body checksum	`c7704d56564ffb3051632d1b15c2ad698ff6dfcdb2b0ccd91a38528fc9b136f0` Evidence of the exact bytes we read, not an identity: Google varies the response per request, so re-fetching an unchanged container yields a different checksum. Compare the published version instead.

Re-audit

This reading is from a month ago. A container can be republished at any time, and nothing here updates on its own — a fresh read is the only way to know whether it still says this. Running it again replaces this page in place, so the link keeps working.
