What is the digital impact of Law 25?
Consent is mandatory for triggering all trackers
LAW 25 - METRICS
Impact on analytics
Without user consent under Law 25, you cannot measure analytical performance (sessions/sales) or share data with your MarTech ecosystem.
Important: server-side tracking is not exempt. If users do not give their consent, you will have to calculate performance using data modelling.

LAW 25 - MARKETING
Impact on media performance
As a business, your ability to run remarketing audiences depends on users providing consent.
If users do not consent, you cannot track conversions, resulting in lower in-platform performance and fewer data points for AI optimization.
If you are a website publisher, you won't be able to maximize advertising revenue without consent.
LAW 25 - UX
Impact on user experience
Ensuring choices are respected and giving them simple and transparent ways to access their data at all times will reinforce user trust.
A reliable and efficient consent management process will prevent users from leaving a website due to confusing language or off-putting consent banners.
