If your Google Ads and GA4 reports never seem to agree, you are not imagining it. The numbers are actually different — and the reason is not a tracking bug. It is a consent gap that most marketers do not even know exists. Here is what happens. When a user lands on your website and clicks "decline" on your cookie banner, every single Google tag goes dark for that session.  No data flows into Google Ads. Nothing reaches GA4.

Many stores lose tracking because their banners are confusing or hidden. Seers Cookie Consent makes this easy. It adds a proper banner to your Sh...
