The cookieless future is here, don't lose out_
Google has announced that Universal Analytics (UA) will sunset from 1 July 2023 for standard customers or from 1 October 2023 for 360 customers and replace it with an overhauled GA4. This will impact all businesses using UA. Act now so you don't lose out.
- You will need to transition to GA4.
- No new data will appear in your current account after the above dates.
- For 6 months only, all data will become read-only. Thereafter, all data will be deleted (*Google to confirm final dates).
- You can capture over a year's worth of data if you implement GA4 now.
Braidr can help you transition to GA4 and protect your data.
Why you should consider migrating to GA4 now_
GA4 is the next generation of Google Analytics. It has been built on new technology and it aims to serve the measurement needs of a privacy-centric future that is less reliant on cookies. It's good news! However, the sooner you act to implement GA4, the more active data you will have at your disposal when UA sunsets. Here's what you can expect:
New tracking standard
GA4 is events-based so KPIs and customer measurement should be highly personalized. Some ways of measuring differ radically from UA.
Holistic measurement
Understand unified customer journeys across devices and platforms (Web + App), deduplicated your 1st party data and Google signed-in data.
Predictive insights
GA4 has been engineered with machine learning at its core, so it fills in the gaps where data may be incomplete due to advanced privacy rules.
Built for the future
GA4 provides a solid foundation for a privacy-safe, cookieless future, elevating your data insights and preserving your data measurement.
Why Google made this decision_
- Regulatory changes such as GDPR and CCPA impact how data can now be collected and used.
- Browser updates impact traditional data collection (most browsers have already stopped, or will stop, tracking 3rd party cookies).
- Users are demanding more control and transparency of data collected and used for ad personalisation.
Reliable measurement has never been
more critical, and more of a challenge.

The next steps to shoring up your data_
We highly recommend businesses make the move now; the sooner GA4 is implemented, the sooner it is collecting information that you can leverage now, and in the future. There is currently just over a year's worth of data that can be collected between now and UA sunset.
