What is Consent Mode v2?

It is a tool that adjusts how Google works based on visitors agreeing to share their data and helps your website comply with privacy laws. In other words, it takes permission from the visitors whether they allow data collection or not.

The major purpose of the consent mode is to check if the visitor has granted permission for the data collection. In case, the visitor denies it, then Google can only collect strictly important data.

Why to Use Consent Mode v2?

Particular privacy laws like GDPR strictly ask websites to get permission from the visitor before collecting personal data. Consent mode helps you to obey these laws. In addition, it helps to collect accurate data, build trust with visitors, and improve user experience.

So, now that you are familiar with the cookies consent mode, let us step ahead and understand its setup method.
