to measure conversions.

How sitewide tagging works
-
Sitewide tags, such as the Google tag, place first-party cookies on your website.
-
Customers interact with your ad and the sitewide tag stores first-party cookies with info about the interaction.
-
When the customer converts on your website, the tag reads this cookie and records the conversion in your Google Ads account.
