Google Tag Manager Introduces Automated Cloudflare Setup for First-Party Mode

Google Tag Manager Introduces Automated Cloudflare Setup for First-Party Mode

13 days ago

Google Tag Manager now supports first-party mode with Cloudflare. This mode allows deploying a Google tag using your own infrastructure on your website's domain, acting as a bridge to Google's services. The setup can use your existing CDN, load balancer, or web server. Unlike standard setups where the tag is requested from Google, in first-party mode, the tag is loaded from your domain, and measurement requests are forwarded to Google.

Google Tag Updates Consent Mode Parameter for Colorado Privacy Settings

Google Tag Updates Consent Mode Parameter for Colorado Privacy Settings

Google updated its tag request parameters, adding a 'gcd' parameter with a '9l' flag. This flag activates when a user's geolocation is in Colorado and they enable the Global Privacy Control setting in their browser. The default value is '1l' and indicates the user forbids data sharing or selling. This suggests Google may honor browser-level privacy settings, affecting data handling for Colorado users. The full implications remain unclear.
