Facebook Pixel integration for Consentmo GDPR app
Here is how it works by default:
Our app deletes the Facebook Pixel cookies on page load. However, those cookies are then created by Facebook again on the next page load. Because of that, we are removing the cookies on every refresh. With that said, when a customer visits a page, a small bit of information is sent to Facebook Pixel. We are using this method due to Shopify's limitations preventing us from getting the tracking codes for each store.
NOTE: The below integration is only applicable if the service is added via a script placed in the theme files of the store. If the integration for the service is done through any other channel or service, please check the Help center for the relevant integration as per your case: Social Media Pixels integration for Consentmo GDPR app
