 * Hi there,
 * We have been using your plugin for some time now and think it is especially great
   when it comes to CLS and so on.
 * However, we are not using the scanner and it is not connected or activated. I
   also do not see a scheduled cronjob to scan for cookies. Nevertheless, we noticed
   some queries in the morning containing “cli_cookie” in them.
 * Might it be that there is still some scanner running and how could we deactivate
   it?
 * Thank you in advance!
 * Best regards,
    Christopher

 * Hi [@ceem123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ceem123/),
 * We have checked the plugin code but couldn’t find such a query unless using the
   scanner. Kindly provide some screenshots or more details about the incident.

 * Hi [@webtoffee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webtoffee/),
 * Thank you for the quick reply. Here are some example queries:
 *     ```
       SELECT   wp_posts.* FROM wp_posts  LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_term_relationships.object_id) WHERE 1=1  AND ( 
         wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id IN (1670)
       ) AND wp_posts.post_type = 'cookielawinfo' AND ((wp_posts.post_status = 'publish')) GROUP BY wp_posts.ID ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date DESC
       <strong>(yields > 172820, 172819)</strong>
       SELECT  t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t  INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON t.term_id = tt.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN ('cookielawinfo-category') AND tr.object_id IN (172820, 172819) ORDER BY t.name ASC
       SELECT post_id, meta_key, meta_value FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id IN (172820,172819)
       ```
   
 * I hope that this helps a little. If I may provide any further details, please
   feel free to let me know.

 * Hi [@ceem123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ceem123/),
 * Sorry for the delay in follow-up. Cookies are queries this way and hence this
   is normal in the plugin.
 * Feel free to revert if anything else.
