Project Details
📘 Project Description : –
The client was running paid campaigns and analytics tracking but lacked a proper consent management system. This created:
- Legal compliance risks
- Data inconsistency across platforms
- Loss of tracking signals in restricted regions (EEA, UK)
We implemented a complete Cookie Consent Banner solution integrated with Consent Mode V2 using GTM. The setup dynamically adjusts tracking behavior based on user consent choices, ensuring both compliance and data continuity.
