Integrating a Google Certified CMP on Shopify

Setting up a Google Certified CMP on your Shopify store doesn’t have to be complex. Follow these steps to ensure a seamless integration:

1. Choose a Certified CMP: Opt for a solution that is officially certified by Google, like Consent Studio. A certified CMP ensures compliance with Google’s standards and streamlines implementation with Google tools like Tag Manager and Analytics.
2. Install the CMP on Shopify
   • Log in to your Shopify admin dashboard.
   • Navigate to Online Store > Themes and click Customize.
   • Add the CMP’s script code to your store. Most CMPs, including Consent Studio, provide simple code snippets for this purpose.
3. Configure Consent Options
   • Customize consent banners and preferences to match your store’s branding.
   • Enable region-specific settings to comply with various regulations, such as GDPR for the EU and CCPA for California.
4. Sync with Google Tools
   • Connect your CMP to Google Tag Manager and Analytics.
   • Activate Google’s Consent Mode to manage how analytics and advertising cookies behave based on user consent.
5. Test Your Setup
   • Use tools like Google Tag Assistant and your CMP’s testing features to ensure everything functions as intended.
   • Validate compliance across key jurisdictions.

By choosing Consent Studio, you’re investing in a solution that not only ensures compliance but also builds trust with your customers, enabling your Shopify store to thrive in a privacy-first world.
