Which companies does independent.co.uk tell about you?

When Packet Voyage last checked independent.co.uk on 11 October 2026, the page contacted 19 third-party companies before any cookie consent: Google, the-independent.com, px-cloud.net, crazyegg.com, Dotmetrics (Ipsos), Chartbeat, spellknight.com, privacymanager.io and 11 others. After clicking "ACCEPT" on the cookie banner, 11 more joined, including pbstck.com, google.co.uk, Taboola, experianmatch.info, anonymised.io, rapidedge.io and 5 others. That ranks it 1st of 14 UK sites in the index for companies contacted before consent.

The latest re-check on 11 October 2026 couldn't open the page, so this is the last good result.
