With the impending demise of third party cookies the importance of having good quality data – and knowing how to keep it safe – is becoming increasingly critical for marketers.
While the death of the cookie isn’t on the cards for a couple of years, given Google’s announcement it would be delaying the implementation of its blocking for at least two years, it is going to happen.
Google announced this week (June 24th) that it is delaying the implementation of third party cookie blocking by almost two years.
The company’s decision to take a more responsible approach and work with all interested parties will be a relief for many PPC managers who now have until mid to late 2023 to prepare.
Facebook and Apple have been embroiled in a fight over access to people’s data for some time now and the stakes just got higher with the release of Apple’s latest iOS.
The iPhone operating system, iOS 14.5 came into effect last week and it means that users of Apple products will now have to actively give permission for Facebook, and other companies which sell mobile advertising, to use their data.
Google’s cookie tracking changes – the digital giant is planning to make third party cookies obsolete in its Chrome browser by 2022 – has significant impact for marketers but all is not lost.
If you only use cookies to track your customer visitor behaviour, preferences and basic demographics while they’re on your website, you’re unlikely to be seriously impacted by the removal of third party cookies, expected to take place by the end of 2022.
