About lokker

LOKKER is a web privacy software platform designed to protect against unauthorized data collection and sharing through websites. The platform combines a Consent Management Platform (CMP) with Privacy Edge Protection, which detects and blocks privacy risks in real-time. The system operates through a single line of JavaScript implementation that monitors website activity and prevents unauthorized data sharing.

What does lokker do?

The platform's core functionality centers on detecting and blocking unauthorized data collection across websites. Through its dashboard interface, LOKKER surfaces trackers, pixels, and privacy-related threats, providing detailed information about the type of threat, affected pages, collected data, and data sharing patterns. The system assigns a numeric Web Privacy Risk Score to help organizations understand, prioritize, and mitigate privacy risks on their websites.

LOKKER's Consent Management Platform blocks all data sharing outside of strictly necessary cookies until user consent is provided. An interesting feature is its handling of dynamically introduced tags, known as 'piggybacking' - when new tags are introduced after the initial configuration, they are automatically blocked until explicitly approved by the privacy team. The platform functions independently of tag managers like GTM or Adobe, maintaining direct control over third-party data sharing.

What makes lokker different?

The platform's approach to privacy protection combines automated risk detection with preventive blocking capabilities. While many consent management platforms rely on manual configuration and struggle to prevent data sharing before user consent, LOKKER's system automatically blocks unauthorized data collection by default. The platform provides detailed analytics about shared data, including the frequency of third-party data transmission and blocking events.

The system's Privacy Edge Protection feature offers comprehensive detection of privacy risks, including fingerprinters, pixels, and tags that might be missed by other tools. It provides proprietary risk scores, benchmark data, and information about related legal actions or violations for each identified tag risk. These insights can be used to establish effective data blocking and protection rules.

Use cases and industries

LOKKER primarily serves healthcare organizations and law firms, where data privacy requirements are particularly stringent. In healthcare, the platform helps organizations comply with HIPAA regulations and protect patient data from unauthorized sharing. For law firms, it provides tools to monitor clients' privacy risks and generate client-ready reports for compliance assessments.

Implementation typically takes about an hour, though this can vary based on the amount of technology that needs review. The platform's pricing structure depends on the number of domains and pages per site, and customers must purchase both the Privacy Edge blocking capability and the CMP components together. The solution particularly addresses concerns around regulatory compliance, unauthorized data access, and the rising tide of privacy-related lawsuits targeting organizations that inadvertently share sensitive data through website tracking technologies.
