Consent check does not work on Microsoft Edge, Cookies are set without consent!!

[flolege]

On Chrome, no Google (Analytics) cookies are set if the Consent is not given by the pop up click.

On Edge, some cookies are already set although the user did not click nothing yet!

This should not happen, here is a screenshot (am is our session cookie, the others should not be set!)

This package doesn't prevent setting any cookies, this just offers you a cookie bar, the rest of the logic has to be implemented by the package consumer.

So I have no explanation why it would be different in the mentioned browsers, I do however know for sure that the cookie-bar doesn't actually stop cookies. (from looking at the code obviously, and issue #58 )

I see. I am using next.js and in my _document.js Head section i do this:

        {/* Global Site Tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics */}
         <script
           async
           src={`https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=${GA_TRACKING_ID}`}
         />
         <script
           dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{
             __html: `
           window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
           function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}            
           gtag('js', new Date());
           
         `}}

I guess this is the culprit. I don't know why chrome does not set the cookie but Edge does. Can I somehow set it based on a condition - e.g. the CookieConsent - cookie is set and true?

I have no experience with next.js nor the google tag manager so I can't be of much help.
If I were you I'd open a ticket on a google tag manager related forum.

Sorry, best of luck,
