Key Takeaways:
- WebToffee’s GDPR Cookie Consent Plugin is now a Google-certified CMP Partner, ensuring seamless integration with Google Consent Mode v2 for effective consent management.

- This partnership highlights a privacy-first approach, combining compliance, enhanced analytics, and optimized ad performance for businesses.
A Consent Management Platform (CMP) is a tool that enables websites, publishers, and organizations to collect and manage user consent for processing their personal data. It helps websites to comply with data privacy laws such as GDPR and CCPA.
When a visitor lands on a website, they might see a popup or banner asking for consent to load cookies on their browsers. This popup or banner is provided by a CMP integrated into the website. Once a consent signal is received from the users, the website will be able to display ads from the vendors to the users.
The Google CMP Partner Program is an initiative by Google to recognize and support Consent Management Platforms (CMPs) that meet specific standards and integrate seamlessly with Google’s advertising and analytics tools. These platforms help website owners and app developers comply with global privacy laws like GDPR, CPRA, and others while using Google’s services effectively.
Certified CMPs: CMPs that meet Google’s technical and compliance standards receive certification. Certification ensures the CMP supports tools like Google Consent Mode, which allows businesses to track user behavior and ad performance while respecting user privacy.
Integration with Google Tools: Certified CMPs work seamlessly with Google’s ad and analytics platforms, including Google Ads, Google Analytics, Floodlight, and Conversion Linker.
The Google CMP Partner Program ensures that businesses using certified CMPs can maintain compliance with privacy laws while leveraging Google’s powerful advertising and analytics ecosystem.
The Google CMP Partnership means that users of our GDPR Cookie Consent plugin can confidently manage consent while fully leveraging Google’s advertising and analytics tools like Google Ads, Google Analytics, Floodlight, and Conversion Linker.
As a certified partner, we ensure seamless integration with Google Consent Mode, enabling businesses to track conversions and gather valuable insights without compromising compliance with privacy laws such as GDPR and CPRA/CCPA.
This partnership underscores our commitment to providing a privacy-first consent management solution that respects user preferences while optimizing marketing performance. Users can enjoy improved accuracy in analytics and enhanced ad efficiency, all while ensuring their operations remain fully compliant with global data protection regulations.
Google Consent Mode, when paired with a Certified CMP Partner like our GDPR Cookie Consent Plugin, offers a seamless way to manage user consent while optimizing website analytics and advertising performance.
A Certified CMP integrates directly with Google Consent Mode, ensuring that consent preferences set by users are communicated accurately to Google tools like Google Analytics, Google Ads, and Floodlight.
When a visitor interacts with your website, the CMP captures their consent choices for cookies and tracking. These preferences are relayed to Google Consent Mode, which adjusts the behavior of tags based on the consent status.
If a user gives consent, tracking tools like cookies are enabled, allowing for detailed data collection and accurate conversion tracking. If a user declines, Google Consent Mode operates in a consent-compliant manner by gathering anonymized data signals like aggregated conversions, ensuring privacy preferences are respected.
This collaboration ensures businesses can honor user preferences, comply with privacy laws, and still make data-driven decisions to optimize their marketing strategies. It’s a powerful solution for balancing compliance and performance.
The Google certified CMP status is not just a recognition for us; it’s a win for you, our users. It signifies our commitment to data privacy and serving you with the best tools to navigate the changing landscape of data protection regulations.

Thanks for this. My plugin is missing “Enable the Enable IAB TCF 2.2 support checkbox.” so I ams stuck there. Is this a premium feature?

Hi,
You are not yet published on Google’s CMP Partner Program page. Do you know when you will be listed? Some friends care about this situation and ask.
