Exactly, so it is not a problem of Complianz but of Safari.
The problem caused by calling the URL no matter if something is loaded or not is the same as the problem with Google Fonts in Germany. When calling a URL of a non-EU country, the IP address is stored without the consent of the user on the other server and that is illegal according to DSGVO.
I am not an IT specialist but presumably Apple has somehow messed up here. This is something others can investigate. I will use Complianz now as it works with Chrome and Firefox because otherwise I am very happy with the plugin – thank you.

Safari’s “Privacy/Tracker” probably seems to be the problem. Even with Wireshark I get a connection to googletagmaanger.com when I use Safari, but not with Chrome or Firefox. Maybe I am on the track of something big ??
I don’t want to put a non DSGVO compliant website online, therefore I don’t have a URL yet.
I found
<script type="text/plain" data-service="google-analytics" async data-category="statistics" src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id="></script>before </body> which seems to be what is shown in the network-Tab as connection to googletagmanager.com whenever the page is loaded for the first time and consent is not given and pretty sure it comes from Complianz.Only if I activate Google Site Kit and implement the GA4 Snippet with Site Kit a
<link rel='dns-prefetch' href='//www.googletagmanager.com'/>is in the <head> also another network connection to googletagmanager.com is established this time with the GA4 ID. Cookies are not set before consent.This must be a problem with Safari on Mac on other Websites with Complianz the same empty gtag/js is loaded
Actually I want to use Google Analytics, but then without googletagmanager being loaded BEFORE the consent was given. Any connection to the US without consent is a problem for the DSGVO as we had to find out by Google Fonts earlier this year by a court decision in Germany.
As soon as I select Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager in Complianz, whether with or without Site Kit enabled, a connection to googletagmanager is established the first time the page is loaded only in Safari.
