Do I need Google Consent Mode?

Yes, if you use Google Analytics 4, GTM or Google Ads. Since March 2024, Google requires Consent Mode v2 for EU users.

Do I need to add code?

No. Consenta integrates Google Consent Mode v2 automatically. You just need to enable the option in the settings.

Does this work with my GTM setup?

Yes. Consenta sends the consent signals before GTM loads. All tags automatically respect the consent status.

What happens on rejection?

All 4 signals remain denied. Google services receive no data and set no cookies.
