| Feature | Basic cookie banner | Search Savvy consent-aware set-up |
|---|---|---|
| Tag behaviour | Tags often fire regardless of choice | Tags controlled by consent state |
| Google signals | No Consent Mode, or set up incorrectly | Consent Mode v2 signals tested |
| Choices | "Accept" prominent, "reject" hidden | Clear, balanced choices and easy withdrawal |
| Data collected | Emails and IDs may leak into URLs | Personal data minimised and checked |
| Proof | No record of what was chosen | Consent logged and documented |
| Marketing impact | Data lost or ad features limited | Maximum permitted measurement retained |
Most of these are fixable in days, but are rarely noticed until someone checks.
Analytics and ad pixels load as soon as the page opens, regardless of the banner.
Signals missing, defaulted to granted, or not updated after a choice.

Email addresses or phone numbers in query strings are sent to analytics tools.
The privacy policy omits tools that the site actually uses.
Visitors cannot easily change their mind after choosing.
Automated bidding depends on conversion signals, and those signals now depend on consent. See ad conversion tracking

If you collect personal data of people in India, the DPDP Act can apply, and analytics and advertising tags often involve personal data. The DPDP Rules, 2025 were notified in November 2025 and are being phased in. Your legal team should confirm which obligations apply to you and when.
The DPDP framework requires a clear notice and valid consent when personal data is processed on a consent basis, and many sites use a banner for tracking technologies. Requirements depend on your data, audience and regions, so your legal team should confirm what your site needs.
Google requires Consent Mode for personalised advertising and measurement features for visitors in the European Economic Area and UK. If you only serve India it is not mandatory, but many businesses adopt it to apply visitor choices consistently across Google tags and to prepare for broader rules.
Yes, some. Visitors who decline cannot be tracked in the same way, so reported numbers may fall. Good banner design, correct Consent Mode set-up and modelled data where available recover part of the gap, and server-side controls improve accuracy for those who agree.
No tool is compliant on its own. GA4 offers settings such as shorter data retention, disabled advertising features and consent integration, but compliance depends on how you configure it, what you collect, your notices and your legal basis. We configure the technical side, and your legal team confirms compliance.
We work with established consent management platforms, including Google-certified options for EEA traffic, and choose one that fits your website, regions, languages and budget. We configure it with Tag Manager so choices are applied consistently to every tag.
We review whether your banner and privacy policy match what your tags actually do, and flag differences. We do not provide legal advice or draft legal policies, so we recommend your legal adviser reviews final wording and your overall obligations.
Share your website and the tools you use. Our analytics team will check which tags fire before consent and reply with a prioritised fix list within 48 hours.
