- tools are used to reduce the identifying power of cookies and the third party does not combine collected information with other data it already holds. In this case, user consent is not required;
- tools are NOT used to reduce the identifying power of cookies and the third party does not combine collected information with other data it already holds. In this case, user consent is required.
