Over the last few years, data privacy has become an increasing concern with internet users lacking visibility around who has access to their personal data and how it’s being used online. As a result of this, both marketers and advertising platforms have felt under pressure to respond to rising consumer demands regarding privacy and control.
Third-party cookies have already been blocked across web browsers such as Firefox and Safari. Third-party cookies were also planned to be blocked across Google Chrome by the end of 2023, however as of July 2022, it was announced that this would be pushed back to the second half of 2024. This move has the potential to drastically change the way that you as an advertiser run your marketing activity, giving less visibility into media performance whilst limiting targeting capabilities and customer insights. Whilst 2024 might seem some way off, it’s crucial for marketers to be aware of the upcoming changes and to start to prepare for a cookieless web. With less reliance on third-party data sets, collecting first-party data and building your own customer database should be a priority.
