How does Smart Geotargeting work on Shopify stores?

Smart Geotargeting uses IP-based location detection to identify where each visitor is coming from. Based on their region, Consentmo applies the appropriate consent model, cookie behavior, and opt-out rules — ensuring compliance without manual configuration.

Why is region-specific consent important for compliance?

Privacy laws differ by region. For example: The EU requires explicit opt-in under GDPR. The US (CCPA and state laws) follows an opt-out model. If one rule is applied globally, your store may either become non-compliant or lose valuable tracking data. Smart Geotargeting ensures each visitor sees the correct experience.

Can I customize consent behavior for different countries?

Yes. With Smart Geotargeting, you can define consent behavior per country, including: Consent type (explicit or implied); Cookie category behavior; Opt-out Signals per US State; Banner logic and visibility. This ensures your Shopify store adapts to each region's requirements.

What is granular control in Smart Geotargeting?

Granular control allows you to define how consent behaves for each region or US state individually. Instead of applying a single global setup, you can customize consent models, cookie behavior, and opt-out settings based on local legal requirements.

Does Smart Geotargeting reduce data loss?

Yes. By applying consent rules only where legally required, Smart Geotargeting helps preserve analytics accuracy, conversion tracking, and ad performance (ROAS).

What is the Worldwide mode in Smart Geotargeting?

Worldwide mode automatically applies the correct consent model for every visitor globally, even if you haven't manually configured each region. This ensures full compliance coverage with minimal setup.

Is Smart Geotargeting difficult to set up?

No. Smart Geotargeting can be activated with one click using preconfigured, law-specific settings. You can use the default setup or customize regions and rules as needed.

Is Smart Geotargeting available on all Consentmo plans?

Smart Geotargeting is available on Plus and Enterprise plans.
