How Auditzo Works: A Clear, Evidence-Based Compliance Audit Process

A clear, step-by-step view of how Auditzo reviews websites for compliance, in plain English.

What Auditzo does (and what it doesn’t)

This page explains how Auditzo conducts website compliance audits using observed technical behavior, not assumptions or surface-level scans.

Auditzo reviews real website behavior
  • Observes how your site behaves during normal user visits
  • Examines tracking, scripts, and third-party requests
  • Maps findings to relevant privacy and data protection frameworks
Auditzo does not
  • Provide legal advice or replace legal counsel
  • Make changes to your website during the audit
  • Guarantee compliance for every situation or jurisdiction

Note: This page explains the process in general terms. Your actual results depend on your website’s behavior, configuration, and user locations.

The Website Compliance Audit Process, Step by Step

What we look at during an audit

During a website compliance audit, Auditzo evaluates technical behavior, tracking activity, and data touchpoints that may trigger regulatory obligations.

Website behavior

  • What loads during normal visits
  • Which scripts and tags are present
  • Where third-party connections occur

Tracking and consent signals

  • When tracking activates
  • Whether consent banners appear to control behavior
  • High-level signals related to data sharing

User data touchpoints

  • Forms, accounts, and payment-related flows

Framework mapping

The goal is clarity: what your website appears to do, and what that may mean for compliance expectations.
