A Lithuanian Cosmetics and Household Goods Online Store — Estonian Branch

A Lithuanian store on the Estonian market. Three trackers fire 330 ms before the banner. The HAR records a 'Reject' click — by which point GA, Google Ads, and Facebook have already transmitted data.

Indicators of GDPR non-compliance

Context

save24.ee is the Estonian site of the Lithuanian company MB “Savelita” (Marijampolė, Lithuania). An online store for cosmetics, household chemicals, and home goods. The privacy policy is written in Estonian, but names the Lithuanian data protection inspectorate as the regulator — incorrect for Estonian users, whose regulator is AKI. HAR: 118 requests, 12 domains.

Reject is recorded — the data has already gone out

The HAR captures the full session cycle: the page loading, the banner appearing, and at the end — a click on the “Reject” button (action=reject, +51559 ms). This is a rare case where the HAR shows the user’s actual interaction with the banner.

The problem is that by the time “Reject” is clicked, all the data has already been transmitted: a GA4 collect fired at +2129 ms, Google Ads made four requests at +2138–2140 ms, and a Facebook PageView fired at +1007 ms. Cookie-script technically works — it records the fact of the rejection — but it does not block trackers until consent is obtained.

Trackers before the banner

Optimizely (+182 ms), DigitalGenius (+183 ms), and Cloudflare Insights (+183 ms) fire 330 milliseconds before the banner appears. GTM — 182 ms before. This means A/B testing and the AI chat are initialized before the user even sees the banner.

DigitalGenius — partially EU servers

DigitalGenius is interesting: chat.digitalgenius.com — a CDN, likely in the USA. But flow-server.eu.dgdeepai.com is clearly an EU instance (the .eu suffix). The company took care to use European infrastructure for the main server, but the script CDN remains external.

The policy — not tailored for the Estonian market

The privacy policy is written under Lithuanian law: it names “Leedu Andmekaitse Inspektsioon” (the Lithuanian data protection inspectorate) as the regulator. For Estonian users visiting save24.ee, the regulator should be AKI. This isn’t just a formality — a user has the right to know which authority to file a complaint with. None of the actual data recipients (Google, Facebook, Optimizely, DigitalGenius) is named in the policy.

Conclusion

Cookie-script is in place, and rejection works — but the load order does not meet the principle of consent before processing. Three trackers fire before the banner, the rest before any interaction with it. The HAR shows this plainly: the user clicked “Reject” after 51 seconds, while their data had already gone to Google, Facebook, and Cloudflare 2 seconds after the page loaded.

1. Subject of the complaint
I am filing a complaint regarding the processing of my personal data by the website save24.ee.

2. Circumstances
I visited the website save24.ee and found indications that the processing of my personal data does not comply with the GDPR. The technical analysis published on gdpru.eu on 6 June 2026 (open methodology, reproducible measurements) documents the following indications:

1) Optimizely (+182 ms), DigitalGenius (+183 ms), and Cloudflare Insights (+183 ms) fire 330 ms before the cookie-script banner (+513 ms). GTM (+331 ms) fires 182 ms before the banner. Facebook Pixel loads at +629 ms and sends a PageView at +1007 ms — after the banner, but before any interaction with it.

2) The cookie-script banner loads at +513 ms. The HAR records the user clicking 'Reject' at +51559 ms. Meanwhile, a GA collect fired at +2129 ms, Google Ads at +2138 ms, and a Facebook PageView at +1007 ms — all before the reject click. Cookie-script does not block trackers until consent.

3) The privacy policy is written under Lithuanian law (naming the Lithuanian data protection inspectorate as the regulator) and does not name a single specific data recipient. Optimizely, DigitalGenius, Cloudflare, Facebook, and Google are not declared.

4) Google, Facebook, Optimizely, and Cloudflare — servers in the USA. No transfer mechanism is stated. The policy is written under Lithuanian law — for Estonian users, the regulator should be AKI, not the Lithuanian inspectorate.
