How to add Google Consent Mode V2 Cookies Joomla Plugin

Google Consent Mode V2 Cookies for Joomla plugin

Functionality and Key Features of Google Consent Mode V2 Cookies:

Google Consent Mode V2 Cookies Joomla Plugin is an enhanced framework designed by Google to help websites manage user consent for cookies and data collection in a privacy-compliant manner. It allows websites to adjust the behavior of Google tags (like Google Analytics and Google Ads) based on the consent preferences of users.

Granular Consent Options:

Introduces additional parameters like ad_user_data and ad_personalization to provide more detailed control over user consent for advertising and personalization.
Works alongside existing parameters like ad_storage and analytics_storage.

Dynamic Behavior:

Tags dynamically adapt based on user consent. For example, if a user denies consent for analytics, Google Analytics will operate in a restricted mode without storing cookies.

Privacy Compliance:

Designed to align with data protection regulations like GDPR by ensuring that user preferences are respected.

Basic and Advanced Modes:

Basic Mode: No data is collected or transmitted unless the user explicitly consents. (if you are not using GTM or Google Tag Manager)
Advanced Mode: Allows limited data collection (like timestamps and referrer information) even without explicit consent, though this may raise compliance concerns in some regions.

This update emphasizes user privacy while still enabling websites to gather essential data for analytics and advertising in a compliant way. You can find more details in Google's official documentation.
