# How to check if Consent Mode is active in TagFly

If you are unsure whether your consent mode is working properly, here’s our guide for you to test it. You can use either of the two provided options to check your consent mode.

| Note: Consent mode is only active in regions under privacy regulations


# Use Tag Assistant

Go to [https://tagassistant.google.com/](https://tagassistant.google.com/),  you can debug the consent states for any sites running Google Tags.

After adding the domain you want to debug, select a Tag ID from the top of Tag Assistant.

Then, choose an event from the left navigation and click the "Consent" tab. This will show you the state of different consent signals at the time of the event.

Check if all default consents are in ${color}[#e70d0d](Denied)state

Next, verify the consent status after the user grants permission by accepting cookies.

| Note that the Granted status depends on the specific permissions the shoppers agree to give us.


# Use Network tab

To open the **network tab**, you can use **right-click** > **Inspect** > **Select the Network tab**

Filter for `gcs` to find all requests containing this parameter. Look for the request named `collect` that includes the `gcs` parameter.

After clicking on the request, scroll through the request payload parameters to locate the `gcs` value in the list:

In the original version of Consent Mode, when examining network requests, look for a parameter called `&gcs`. This parameter has a value formatted as `G1xy`.

`x` stands for consent to Google Ads cookies and is either `1` (granted) or `0` (denied).

`y` stands for consent to Google Analytics cookies and is either `1` (granted) or `0` (denied).

| Value | Description |
| ---- |
| G100 | No consent has been granted |
| G110 | Google Ads has consent, Google Analytics 4 does not |
| G101 | Google Analytics has consent, Google Ads does not |
| G111 | Both Google Ads and Google Analytics have consent |
