FAQ
Questions buyers ask before they commit.
Is Consent Mode v2 a cookie banner?
No. It is a Google tag behavior framework. COKIQ connects visitor choices from the banner to the Google consent signals marketing teams need.
Can Consent Mode v2 improve measurement?
It helps preserve consent-aware signal quality while respecting visitor choices. Exact outcomes depend on implementation, traffic, and Google configuration.
Why scan before setup?
Most websites already load analytics, pixels, widgets, and cookies. A scan prevents generic policy copy and reveals what needs blocking or review.
