Matomo configuration with non anonymised IP allows cookies without consent.

Hello and thank you for the excellent plugin.

I have read the documentation and read other support threads like this one but haven’t been able to make this work in my website.

My issue is this: Even though I anonymise the user’s IP addresses in Matomo, I want to allow the Matomo cookie only after the user has provided consent for statistics.

The steps I followed to achieve this are:
I have the Matomo plugin installed. In the Matomo plugin I have disabled the tracking code. In the Matono dashboard settings I have set Anonymise visitors’ IP addresses to “Yes”.

In the Complianz wizard, in Cookies -> Statistics I’ve selected “Yes, with Matomo” and in “Do you anonymize IP addresses in Matomo?” I’ve selected “No”.

Expected result: When I visit the website and look at the cookies stored before I give consent to statistics in the Complianz cookie banner I shouldn’t see any Matomo cookies.

Actual result: When I visit the website (logged out and in an incognito window), I see that the Matomo cookies (pk_id and pk_ses) are stored before I give any consent in the Complianz cookie banner.

(The website is still in development and its password protected. Let me know how I can give you access privately if you need to have a look at the source)

Thanks in advance for your help!
