Thank you for replying. Though, I do not understand why a plugin is required? It feels even more invasive to have such a thing running in the browser.
My understanding is that I have an advertisement ID attached to my user, and that enables Google to infer who I am and what my persona is about, to match me with personalized ads.
Wherever possible I disallow Google and all others to stop tracking me, having done so in my account. I find it odd I also need to disallow the tracking from Google, through a third party site (e.g. anyone's blog) even though I have already done so through every direct means possible. What do the consent settings in Google even mean then if I need to allow/disallow consent of tracking per seperate website in addition?
- jefftk 5y agoYour understanding is correct for Google Ads, but in its default (and most common) configuration, Google Analytics does not interact with that third party cookie ID. GA is primarily a tool for helping publishers understand what's happening on their sites, and so uses a first-party (per-site) cookie.
