Chat with usShort answer
Yes. When the browser sends DNT: 1 or Sec-GPC: 1, the script does not load at all, and a hit that arrives anyway is stored at tier 1 with consent bits cleared. You can disable the DNT check; GPC is always honored at the collector.
What the signals do
When the browser sends DNT: 1 or Sec-GPC: 1, the TapCub script does not load at all, and a hit that arrives anyway is stored at tier 1 with consent bits cleared. You can disable the DNT check with data-respect-dnt="false" on the script tag, but GPC is always honored at the collector.
Why you may see no request
This is why a developer with privacy flags turned on sometimes sees no POST in the network panel — the script chose not to load. Test in a browser without those flags, as covered in why TapCub shows no data.
If your own browser has a privacy extension setting GPC, your visits will not appear. Use a clean browser profile to verify an install.
