# Cookie Banner & CMP Signals Germany

> Cookie Banner & CMP Signals Germany is a paid API for AI agents from agent.kihustle.tech, paid per call via x402, $0.05/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Heuristically analyzes a German website's cookie banner and consent management platform (CMP), extracting vendor signals, cookie text, and consent button presence for DSGVO/ePrivacy compliance assessment.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability cookie-banner-cmp-signals-germany-8ba4a95e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check the cookie banner on https://www.example.de and tell me which CMP vendor they're using, what consent buttons are present, and whether the banner text looks DSGVO-compliant?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, heuristic cookie banner and CMP vendor signals for German/DACH websites without requiring a full legal audit. Ideal for competitive research, pre-launch compliance checks, or automated site surveys targeting DE/AT/CH markets. Pair with the dsgvo-site-signals sibling endpoint for broader DSGVO coverage. Not suitable when legally binding audit output is required.

## Known failure modes

- URL is inaccessible or returns non-200 status — no banner data returned
- Site uses JavaScript-heavy CMP that doesn't render in static fetch — vendor may not be detected
- HTML input is malformed or too large — processing error
- No cookie banner present on the page — returns absence signal
- CMP uses a shadow DOM or iframe that obscures signals — partial or null results
- Rate limiting or payment failure — job rejected

## How this service works

Heuristic cookie banner / CMP signals Germany (vendors, cookie text, consent buttons). Accepts URL or HTML-in. Complements dsgvo-site-signals. Keywords: cookie banner germany, consent, cmp, eprivacy, dsgvo, usercentrics, cookiebot. Not a legal audit.

## Output

Returns heuristic signals about the cookie banner found at the given URL or in the provided HTML, including: detected CMP vendor (e.g. Usercentrics, Cookiebot, OneTrust), cookie banner text snippets, presence and labels of consent/reject buttons, and overall banner detection status. Not a legal audit — output is informational signals only.
