How to enable or disable Google Consent Mode with Consent Studio

If you are just getting started with Consent Studio, Google Consent Mode is enabled by default and you do not need to do anything else.

Toggling Google Consent Mode from the Consent Studio Dashboard

Log in to your Consent Studio account and switch to the appropriate site to manage. In the dashboard, use the Web CMP dropdown menu to navigate to Behaviour.

In the left hand sidebar of the banner canvas, open the Consent Modes section.

Here, you will be able to toggle the Enable Google Consent Mode setting.

Important: the toggle in the Consent Studio dashboard does not apply to our official tag for Google Tag Manager, because our tag fires Google Consent Mode signals before making a request to our APIs.

If you wish to enable or disable Google Consent Mode completely and you are using our official Google Tag Manager tag, you also need to disable Google Consent Mode in the tag's settings.

Toggling Google Consent Mode from the official Consent Studio tag for Google Tag Manager

and select Yes or No, depending on your goal.
