CJ Affiliate’s tag tracking utilizes both our tagging and a third-party cookie to support attribution and reporting for your affiliate program. Recent industry developments, particularly GDPR and Apple ITP 2.0, can inhibit CJ from utilizing our third-party cookie at the time of conversion. Advertisers who are using a legacy tag-based integration will need to update their integrations to include our cookieless tracking solution. Our tag-based cookieless tracking is a free, privacy-compliant, simple enhancement that takes minutes to implement and solves for cookie-loss related tracking limitations such as the GDPR, private browsing, and user deleted cookies.
How does it work?
CJ
will include a URL parameter and value containing a unique event ID on
all of your affiliate links. You will store this value and when that
customer transacts, you will pass that same value back to CJ in your
tracking tag. CJ will use this value to attribute that transaction to
the original click, and will record and commission the transaction
appropriately.
