Digital Markets Act Consent Enforcement tools for Google destinations
Google is releasing changes to the Google Ads API, Customer Match, and the Display & Video 360 API in order to support the compliance and consent-related requirements defined under the Digital Markets Act (DMA) in the European Union (EU User Consent Policy). Enforcement of these changes to consent requirements is expected to go into effect starting March 6, 2024.

To adhere to the EU user consent policy and continue creating audience lists for users in the European Economic Area (EEA), advertisers and partners must ensure they are passing end-user consent when uploading audience data. As a Google Partner, Adobe provides you with the necessary tools to comply with these consent requirements under the DMA in the European Union.

Customers who have purchased Adobe Privacy & Security Shield and have configured a consent policy to filter out non-consented profiles do not need to take any action.

Customers who have not purchased Adobe Privacy & Security Shield must use the segment definition capabilities within Segment Builder to filter out non-consented profiles, in order to continue using the existing Real-Time CDP Google destinations without interruption.
