got an email today from google about this.
[blog.google...]

no idea what this consent silliness has ever done. any site that has the cookie popup, i just blindly agree/dismiss and continue. i suspect most people do the same.

whenever google requires some consent nonsense, i just add the tag or click the agreement, etc. and move on. my site has the cookie popup when accessed from europe, whatever that means.

does this new requirement mean having to work with another approved company and possibly paying a racket for this integration?

This is for ads served in EEA and the UK. If you're not serving ads in that region you're fine.

Later this year, we will require all partners using our publisher products — Google AdSense, Ad Manager, or AdMob — to use a Google certified CMP that integrates with the TCF when serving ads to users in the European Economic Area or the UK. In the coming weeks, we will make available a list of Google certified CMPs that have integrated with the IAB Europe TCF and meet the TCF’s specifications, and we’ll require that our partners use a CMP from that list.

The decision to require our publishers to adopt the IAB TCF follows on from IAB Europe’s announcement that TCF V2.2 has been finalized, which further supports consistency in the online advertising consent experience.

the only ads served from my sites are adsense which are shown across the world, including in europe, asia, etc. questions is:

will adsense automatically (or via a simple checkbox click) handle whatever the consent requirements are or would we still need to actively integrate with a cmp?

or perhaps adsense has or will have a facility to automatically or manually suppress ads from certain regions if the site is not integrated with a cmp?

For one website i'm using Quantcast consent management and im happy with it. Wonder of i will be forced to replace Quantcast CM with Google Adsense CM.

@dolcevita looks like Quantcast is indeed approved. [iabeurope.eu...]

Excellent. Quantcast CMP works great with Adsense Ads anchors on mobile and desktop and shows statistics on how many visitors have accepted it and how many have not. Google CMP often freezes the website when scrolling down when using achors Ads.

In Firefox (at least, possibly others) you can install a "I still don't care about cookies" extension that will automatically consent to and dismiss these popups.

I hate this "Accept Cookie" popups. I will end AdSense, when I am forced to use this.

I've hated the cookie popup since the beginning, and i've made every effort to decline, and if a site makes it difficult to decline I will not browse the site.

If you are going to use it, make it easy to use.

I do not see many consent pop-ups, often the site is not fully functional until you make some choice and it shows in a pinned footer visible until you do one thing or another. Most that I've seen classify cookie choices as Site cookies, Analytical cookies, targeting/marketing/personalization cookies so you can turn off that last one. If you do not turn it off, I'm concerned it may override the browser defaults to block 3rd party cookies.

If you use the “Privacy and messaging” consent messages within Adsense - are you covered?

It shows Adsense own concern messages on your site.

Or are they saying a 3rd party consent company must now be used?

@Leebow It looks like Adsense “Privacy and messaging” covers the new consent obligations.

Publishers using Google’s Privacy & messaging GDPR user consent messages: We encourage publishers to consider which CMP solution is best for them. To support publishers, the GDPR user consent messages available to Ad Manager, AdSense, and AdMob publishers in the Privacy & messaging tab are certified in accordance with the new TCF requirement.

The new Consent Management Platform only applies to traffic from EEA and the UK. GDPR traffic is not affected by new rules according to the link in the announcement. It depends on your traffic sources.

Thanks No5needInput (great film!)

I wish google would be clear if their own consent messages are enough. The way I read this first part:

“Publishers using Google’s Privacy & messaging GDPR user consent messages: We encourage publishers to consider which CMP solution is best for them.


To me - that reads that publishers using Google’s own Privacy & Messaging should start looking to which CMP solution is best for them. Meaning the current P&M are not adequate.

But then the second half:

“To support publishers, the GDPR user consent messages available to Ad Manager, AdSense, and AdMob publishers in the Privacy & messaging tab are certified in accordance with the new TCF requirement.”

So that means they are enough?

I’ve signed up to Google’s web conference about this new requirement on Thursday to learn more


@not2easy - I think if you run a website, chances are you’ll get visitors from all over the world. I know we do. So it’s best to cover all bases I think.

I can't agree with you. I read it as if Google CPM is not the only and exclusive choice, but publishers can choose from any CPM listed by iabeurope.eu.

Any CPM from the list below is good:

If I'm in North America and the huge majority of my visitors are also with just a tiny percentage from overseas, how much should I be concerned about this? I already have the GDPR stuff enabled in AdSense as I don't feel like working with yet another company for such a small part of my traffic compliance.

Will Google give us something from the dashboard to make it easier for us, their customers?
