Why are there different types of cookies?
First-party cookies
These are created by the
websites you visit.

They remember things like
logins, shopping carts, and
browsing history on your site,
making life easier for visitors.

Third-party cookies
These come from other
companies (advertisers)
following you around the web.

They track your browsing habits
across different sites to target
you with ads.
Second-party “cookies”
Not a browser “cookie” but
refers to data shared between
companies.

Marketers may share or sell
their customer data to another
company for audience
targeting.

Two Truths & a Lie about Google’s 3rd-Party Cookie
Deprecation
Statements
Google’s Privacy Sandbox strategy is mainly for
privacy reasons, but also they’ve built new
tools for sites that support key use cases.

Third-party cookie deprecation is the end of
user tracking.

Google has removed 1% of third-party cookies
from Chrome.
The Lie!
It’s not the end of user tracking!

Despite the heavy reliance of marketers on
third-party cookies for tracking user behavior,
they’re not the only tech that allows you to
monitor user activity with precision. There has
been and will be plenty of way to track website
visitors in this new world.

First-party cookies will still work by default in all
browsers, delivering valuable insights into user
behavior with their consent.

not just "nice to haves."

What should I do next?
Workshop Digital
Check your site: Search for your own site's first and third-party
cookies in your Chrome settings and find more info on each
cookie in the Chrome Developer Tools.

Audit your marketing tech stack: Ask your your advertising,
CRM, analytics, and data partners about their cookie usage and
plans to navigate Chrome’s third-party cookie deprecation.

Experiment now, win later: Find “next best case scenarios” for
any audience targeting or attribution tools that depend on
third-party cookies to work property.
CallRail
Fully utilize all first-party tracking available (with CallRail
make sure each of your business phone numbers are being
tracked)...no need to wait until 2025!

Don’t panic :) - If you are already tracking each of your business
phone numbers there is nothing you need to do to keep it
working after third-party tracking is fully depreciated on
Chrome.

Stay current with the latest announcements from Google,
but also prepare early so that the transition is smooth.

Work with agencies like Workshop Digital to help you through
the transition and capitalize on the latest strategies!
