Improve your marketing data with server-side tracking
SERVER-SIDE TRACKING BENEFITS
Mitigate ITP and ad blocker impact
Server-side tracking via your own first-party domain helps to bypass common blockers and reduce the impact of browser tracking prevention.
Prolong cookie lifetime
First-party cookies set via your server can last up to 90+ days (vs. 1-7 days), resulting in better conversion attribution and retargeting.
Improve conversion tracking and attribution
More persistent cookies lead to better attribution towards true acquisitor channels and campaigns.
Improve data control and security
Decide exactly what information is shared with ad and analytics platforms. Strip or anonymize sensitive data before it leaves your server.
Improve website performance
Offload heavy marketing scripts to the server, speeding up your site and improving the user experience.
Integrate with third-party tools
Send events from CRMs, back-end systems, or offline sources to sGTM, and trigger ad platform conversions seamlessly.
Enable better legal compliance
Easily apply consent rules, clean and transform PII, and choose EU-based servers to align with GDPR and other regulations.
