“This website uses cookies” – visitors have been seeing this notice for some time as soon as they visit a website. According to the cookie guidelines, storage is only permitted if visitors actively consent. However, this consent obligation leads to data loss, for example, during web analysis. Etracker has taken on this problem and developed a consent-free solution.

Consent means when translated, consent. In digital marketing, it means to consent to the storage of information in the user’s device and the processing of personal data.
Personal data are all data with which users can be identified on the Internet. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) obliges companies to obtain consent from their users.
Consent Is Required In These Cases:
Even if consent is fundamentally mandatory for many areas, errors often arise. We introduce you to the three most common mistakes:
In most cases, the approval of consent is quick and very easy. Because there is a button with “Accept.” But the button with “Reject” is often missing. According to Art. 7 GDPR, refusing consent must be just as easy as consent. The rejection must not be made more difficult than consent, for example, by requiring more clicks.
Often an attempt is made to “seduce” the visitors into giving their consent employing visual highlighting. However, this so-called “nudging” is a serious mistake, which the data protection authorities are opposed to.
For example, the “Accept” button is designed in a striking color, and the link for the rejection is hidden in a body of text.
According to Art. 49 GDPR, users must be informed about all possible risks of data transfers before consent. This warning must be detailed if, for example, American tools such as Google Analytics are used. It is not enough, for example, to just name “individual data uses” instead of the exact details.
For these reasons, it may be better to use a consent-free solution, as otherwise, around 85 percent of the data will be lost. Tracker Analytics meets all the requirements for freedom of consent.
The tool can also automatically play conversion data following the law (based on all conversions) to Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, and Facebook Ads to benefit from the automatic bidding process based on conversions or sales. As with Google Tag Manager, conversions can also be recorded automatically without intervening in the HTML.
