### Enable / Disable Tracking Without GTM [](#bkmrk--24)
### Note:- *Only implement this step if you are not using both our* [*GTM*](https://www.scommerce-mage.com/magento-2-ga4-google-tag-manager.html) *and* [*GDPR*](https://www.scommerce-mage.com/magento-2-gdpr.html) *modules. If you are using both modules then you can set up consent mode v2 using the following guide:-*
{% content-ref url="../analytics-and-tracking-extensions/magento-2-consent-modes-setup-guide.md" %} [magento-2-consent-modes-setup-guide.md](https://docs.scommerce-mage.com/analytics-and-tracking-extensions/magento-2-consent-modes-setup-guide.md) {% endcontent-ref %}
#### Using Module
You can enable or disable GTM tracking using cookies. We have provided an additional check in cookie setup which confirms whether GTM should be checked alongwith the cookie or not. when this check is enabled if the customer doesent accept the cookie then this tracking won't fire. If multiple cookies have the same option enabled then if any one of the cookie is accepted GTM will fire on the store.
Go to Customers>Manage Cookie Choices then create a new cookie or edit the existing one and set GTM to 'Yes'.
[](https://docs.scommerce-mage.com/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/zidimage-57-1.png)
#### Manually Adding Code
This section will cover Enabling or Disabling tracking without using Google Tag Manager. You can do that by including tracking function in your code, let us learn how. If you are using any of our tracking extensions or any other third party extension and you don't want to send information to Google then you need to check for the cookie name e.g. "statistics\_cookie" and this will be set to 1 for "accept" and 0 for "decline", based on cookie value it will enable or disable the tracking.
In case you are using a third party extension then you need to add the code given below. This code needs to be added where your tracking has been implemented.
**Here is the function which will force your tracking not to run unless the cookie has been accepted by the customer from cookie notification message.**
**e.g.** You can add name of your GDPR cookie, here for our GDPR extension the name of cookie key is "statistics\_cookie", which we have been using in below code.
```php
/**
Check if has cookie with accepted cookie policy
*
@return bool
*/
protected function hasCookie()
{
/**
* @var \Magento\Framework\Stdlib\CookieManagerInterface
*/
$cookie = (string)$this->_cookieManager->getCookie('statistics_cookie'); if ($cookie=="0"
{ return false;
}
else{
return true;
}
}
```
### **Integrate Cookies with GTM Pro Tracking**
### Note:- Only implement this step if you are not using both our [*GTM*](https://www.scommerce-mage.com/magento-2-ga4-google-tag-manager.html) and [*GDPR*](https://www.scommerce-mage.com/magento-2-gdpr.html) modules. If you are using both modules then you can set up consent mode v2 using the following guide:-
{% content-ref url="../analytics-and-tracking-extensions/magento-2-consent-modes-setup-guide.md" %} [magento-2-consent-modes-setup-guide.md](https://docs.scommerce-mage.com/analytics-and-tracking-extensions/magento-2-consent-modes-setup-guide.md) {% endcontent-ref %}
You can integrate cookies with GTM Pro by following the below steps in GTM:-
**Step 1 -** The very first step is to create your cookie from the admin panel. To do that please refer to the 4th Part in this guide. The key thing to remember is the name of the cookie that you create in this step.
[](https://docs.scommerce-mage.com/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/84jimage-58-1.png)
**Step 2 -** The next step is to verify whether your cookie is working properly. Go on your website and accept or decline the cookie you have created in the begining. Now navigate to the Page inspector of your browser. Next go into application and then on the left navigation go to storage>cookies and then click on your website. A list of cookies will appear before you as you can see in the image. Now suppose you created a cookie named "Statistics\_cookie" in the first step and have accepted it on the website then the value of this cookie will appear as 1. Vice versa if you have declined this cookie then the value will be 0.
[](https://docs.scommerce-mage.com/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/k89image-75.jpg)
**Step 3 -** Open google tag manager, go into variables section and Create a new variable named "**statistics\_cookie**", variable type should be **1st-Party cookie** and give the name of the cookie as "**statistics\_cookie**". Keep in mind the name of the cookie should be exactly same as you have created in the admin panel. For instance, we created a cookie named "Statistics\_cookie" so we have a variable named exactly same.

**Step 4 -** Now navigate to triggers in GTM and select a trigger and add a custom event as follows: -
- From first drop-down- select variable name created in Step 1 i.e. "**statistics\_cookie**"
- From second drop-down- select equals
- Third Input box- put value 1

#### Front-end Site View - Integrate Cookies with GTM Pro Tracking [](#bkmrk--26)
Let us see how it works on the front-end.

- Next check the inspector of your browser to verify whether your cookie is enabled/disabled. If you have enabled the cookie then the value will be 1 and if it is disabled then the value will be 0. Refer to the image below.

- Finally check the GTM pro to see whether the tags that we associated with your cookie have fired or not. In our case universal analytics is fired since we added the cookie settings for google analytics. Similarly if the cookie is disabled I.e value is 0 then this tag won't be fired.
