Why adapting to the Digital Markets Act? Large digital platform providers, such as Google and Meta, are now required to ensure that companies sharing data with them use DMA-compliant consent management platforms.
To align with DMA compliance, Google has released changes in signaling consent via Google Consent Mode. Companies using Google services should now adjust their consent management operations to continue using marketing tools, like Google Ads or Google Analytics. Ensure uninterrupted access to platforms and services, e.g. Google Analytics or Google Ads, given the new introduced requirements. Ensure continued conversion tracking and analytics optimization.
