OneView automatically enforces Google Consent Mode v2 consent across all Conversion API integrations. Cannot be disabled.
What is Consent Enforcement?
Consent Enforcement automatically respects user consent signals across all advertising platforms, ensuring that conversions are only sent when users have granted the required permissions. OneView enforces consent at the infrastructure level, eliminating the need for platform-specific consent configuration.Understanding consent enforcement:Traditional implementations require you to configure consent handling for each platform separately, creating opportunities for errors and inconsistencies. OneView enforces consent automatically across all platforms using Google Consent Mode v2, ensuring consistent compliance without manual configuration.
How Consent Enforcement works
OneView automatically enforces consent across all Conversion API integrations:| Consent Property | What It Means | When Granted | When Denied |
|---|---|---|---|
analytics_storage | User allows first-party analytics | ✅ OneView processes event data | ❌ OneView discards event data |
ad_storage | User allows advertising optimization | ✅ OneView sends Conversion API | ❌ OneView does not send Conversion API |
ad_user_data | User allows transmission of personal data | ✅ OneView includes hashed PII | ❌ OneView excludes PII |
ad_personalization | User allows personalized advertising | ✅ OneView flags personalization as true | ❌ OneView flags personalization as false |
When consent is not explicitly
GRANTED, it is considered DENIED by default. This follows the privacy by design and by default principle required by GDPR.Automatic PII hashing
OneView automatically hashes all PII and never stores plaintext sensitive data:| PII Type | Hashing | Storage |
|---|---|---|
| SHA-256 | Never stored in plaintext | |
| Phone number | SHA-256 | Never stored in plaintext |
| Name | SHA-256 | Never stored in plaintext |
| Address | SHA-256 | Never stored in plaintext |
| IP address | SHA-256 | Never stored in plaintext |
All personally identifiable information is automatically hashed using before reaching your home region.
Privacy by design
OneView takes a zero-tolerance approach to privacy:| Feature | Traditional Approach | OneView Approach |
|---|---|---|
| PII handling | Flexible (can be disabled) | Automatic (cannot be disabled) |
| Consent enforcement | Manual per platform | Automatic across all platforms |
| Data storage | Plaintext possible | Always hashed |
| Error risk | Human error possible | Eliminated by automation |
While having flexible PII handling options seems convenient, it creates unnecessary risks since sensitive data can be accidentally transmitted or stored in plaintext. OneView enforces automatic PII hashing that cannot be disabled—eliminating human error and ensuring consistent compliance.
Consent Management Platform
To use OneView, you need a Consent Management Platform (CMP) that supports Google Consent Mode v2:| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| CMP support | Must support Google Consent Mode v2 |
| Consent signals | Must send consent status with events |
| Certified partners | All major CMPs support this framework |

PII handling options
With OneView, you can send PII in two ways:| Option | Description | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-hashed | Hash PII before sending to OneView | If you prefer to hash on your side |
| Plaintext | Send PII in plaintext | OneView hashes instantly at the edge |
If you send PII in plaintext, OneView hashes it instantly at the edge, before data reaches your home region. All PII is automatically hashed using SHA-256 regardless of which option you choose.
