Nixon Pro is officially live. It lets you scan your website across multiple pages to uncover third-party trackers, cookies, domains, and fonts that load before consent. To mark the launch, we sat down with co-founder Marcel van Rijn to talk about why Nixon Pro exists, the risks companies overlook, and what makes this tool different.
What made you start with Nixon Lite in the first place?
“We needed a quick way to check what actually happens on a webpage without all the hassle. Things like opening an incognito window, clearing cookies, and juggling plugins just to see which trackers fire is slow and unreliable. Nixon Lite gave a clear snapshot of cookies, trackers, fonts, and third-party domains, instantly. “
“With Nixon Lite, you get a result in two minutes. People are always surprised by what they see.”
What did Nixon Lite not solve that led you to build Nixon Pro?
“One word: scale. Nixon Lite is perfect for scanning a single page quickly, but it doesn’t work well if your website has dozens or hundreds of pages. Imagine having to scan each one manually — that becomes time-consuming and impractical very quickly. We kept hearing this from users who needed to check their full website for GDPR compliance, not just the homepage. That’s when we knew we had to build Nixon Pro. It automates the process, scans multiple pages in one go, and gives a complete picture of your privacy setup. Same scan quality, same clear reporting — just built for full websites instead of one page at a time.”
What makes Nixon Pro different from other privacy tools?
“Many tools look at what your banner says. Nixon Pro looks at what your website actually does. It scans across multiple pages, shows what loads before consent, and gives you a clear report with risk levels and next steps. You can share it with your team or take immediate action.”
“You enter a URL, the scanner runs, and suddenly you’re watching your own website expose things you didn’t know were there.”

What’s the biggest risk companies face if they don’t scan their websites?
“Two big ones. First, reputation damage. If a company promises in its privacy policy that it only shares data with consent, but a scan shows otherwise, that’s a problem. Second, enforcement is increasing. Authorities like the Dutch DPA and UK ICO are actively monitoring websites. Companies are getting letters. You don’t want that surprise.”
“People only read the headline: your website is sharing data without consent. That’s enough to lose trust.”
What do most teams discover when they run their first scan?
“They’re shocked. Many teams assume they’re compliant because they have a cookie banner or a consent management platform in place. But what Nixon Pro reveals is what actually loads behind the scenes — and that’s often very different from what teams expect. Trackers and cookies fire before consent is given. External domains are contacted that no one remembers adding. Sometimes, tools like Hotjar, Meta pixels, or old ad scripts are still active from campaigns that ended months ago.”
“People forget to remove them. Once a tool is live, it keeps running in the background — like a camera that never stops recording. With Nixon Pro, that becomes visible. We show exactly which scripts are still active and on which pages, so teams can finally clean up and take back control. It’s not about blaming teams — it’s about giving them the visibility they need to make informed decisions. “
And what has been your proudest moment so far with Nixon Pro?
“The fact that it works so simply. You just enter a start URL, and the scanner runs. You literally watch the results appear. It feels like you’re watching something secret unfold. And for many users, it’s the first time they’ve truly seen what their website is doing.”
“You enter a URL, the scanner runs, and suddenly you’re watching your own site expose things you didn’t know were there.”

What would you say to someone who says, “We already have compliance tools”?
“Great — test them. Nixon Pro is free to try. Scan 25 pages. If your results are all green, amazing. But if something shows up that you didn’t expect, now you know what to fix. You don’t need to replace your tools. Just validate what they’re doing.”
And finally, how would you describe Nixon Pro in one sentence?
“Automated privacy scanning that shows you who you’re sharing personal data with — without knowing it.”
