We expect the availability of individual
level identifiers to continue to degrade
over time
Industry will move to rely on aggregated
and anonymized measurement and data
collection
Your understanding of the customer
journey may still have gaps, even when you
have the right infrastructure in place
The industry’s ability to tie conversions to ads will
continue to decrease

Consent Mode
1 2 3 4
User navigates to your website
or app and indicates consent
status
(for ads and/or analytics
storage)
Consent Mode will tell Google
tags whether they have
permission to use cookies for
ads and analytics
When the user does not
consent, the relevant Google
tags will adjust their behavior
to help observe conversions
without using associated
cookies. When the user
consents, Google will observe
data as normal.
With modelling, Google
surfaces the most accurate
data in your account to enable
better reporting and
optimization

Who should use Consent Mode?
Primarily using Google
Ads for conversion
tracking
Consent Mode will allow modeling for
lost conversions and simplify
compliance if GA is simultaneously
deployed.
Interest in
future-proofing
measurement
Consent Mode will form a durable
part of Google Analytics’ future
privacy capabilities, including new
features around cookieless
measurement.
Coming soon to GA4 properties will
be the ability to model for behavior
impacted by lack of cookie consent.
Primarily using Google Analytics
for conversion tracking
If not requiring consent for Analytics, Consent
Mode will still simplify compliance for optional
GA functions (like remarketing) prior to consent.
If requiring consent for Analytics, Consent Mode
will allow modeling for lost conversions and
pre-enable customer for GA cookieless mode.
