Google Ads begins collecting more website event data automatically

Written by Paid Media Collective
IN BRIEF

Google Ads will now automatically collect a broader range of event data from websites to improve measurement with less manual setup. Advertisers may notice additional network requests to Google domains when events are transmitted (e.g., /aagrp/prod/model_person_country_code_US_person_region_code).
