Every time a user clicks on the Reject or Deny button in a cookie banner, your analytics and ad pixels stop firing.
For e-commerce, that means fewer conversions tracked, broken attribution, and weaker ad optimization.
The customer may have completed their purchase, but your platforms never see it.
No cookie consent = no data collection.
Unless you switch to server-side.
With server-side, you can still collect key events (like Add To Cart, Purchase, etc) without relying explicitly on cookies.
And no, this doesn’t violate user consent. If the user rejects cookies, you don’t send personal identifiers; only anonymized or aggregated signals. If they accept, you send full data.
Either way, you don’t go completely blind.
Move to a more balanced, compliant consent setting with server-side.
