Hiya,
Are there any plans to expand the Google/YouTube Native integration (App) to use Advanced Consent mode instead of basic?
Given that it’s currently basic, there’s a lack of estimated data.
If not, what’s your recommended solution?
Thanks in advance
Hello Ceri-Waters, thank you for your question and welcome to the Shopify AMA, I’m your host, Emmanuel from FeedArmy.
Unfortunately I do not know when Google releases things, either I know beforehand when I have a meetup with Google, or if it’s a beta, in both cases I will be under NDA. The third way is when Google publicly releases things.
So unfortunately, I can not answer when Google releases things in the future.
However I do not know if the google and youtube app uses advanced or default, you can ask that question here: https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app
If it doesn’t I would assume you can set all of this up using GTM or a different tracking tool / cookie consent app.
Hope this helps.
I’ve been using this app: Cookease: Cookie Consent Mode - Cookease | Google's Advanced Consent Mode v2 Compliance | Shopify App Store
It works with the Google & YouTube app to make it send the extra consent mode signals and uses the native Shopify cookie banner too
