The Problem
Why browser-based tracking fails
Events Blocked By Browsers & Ad Blockers
Modern browsers and extensions prevent tracking scripts from firing, causing missing conversion data.
iOS privacy updates causing signal loss
Apple’s privacy changes limit how user actions are tracked and shared with ad platforms
Missing or duplicated conversions
Events either fail to fire or fire multiple times, creating unreliable reports.
Platforms optimising on incomplete data
Ad algorithms make decisions based on partial signals, reducing optimisation accuracy.
Performance drops with no clear reason
Results decline, but teams can’t identify whether the issue is ads or tracking.
The Solution
Move critical tracking from the browser to the server
Server-side tracking routes conversion events through a secure server environment before sending them to ad and analytics platforms. This reduces data loss, improves accuracy, and gives you more control over how data is shared.
