Vaudit Pixel Installation Guide (Google Tag Manager)

This guide provides all the necessary information to install the Vaudit Pixel on your website using our official Google Tag Manager (GTM) template.

What the Tag Does

The Vaudit Pixel Tracker is a lightweight JavaScript snippet that provides comprehensive ad fraud detection and campaign optimization for advertisers.

When added to your GTM container, this tag is installed on all pages of your website to:

  • Track Traffic: Anonymously collect behavioral and user-agent data.
  • Detect Fraud: Identify invalid traffic patterns and detect discrepancies between ad platform reports and the actual data on your site.
  • Optimize Campaigns: Provide actionable insights to ensure your advertising budget targets genuine audiences.

Key Features

  • Privacy-First: The tag does not collect any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and does not use cookies. It is fully compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and other global privacy regulations.
  • Automatic Event Tracking: Once installed, the pixel automatically tracks key user events like PageLoad, PageView,Click, FormSubmission, and PageUnload.
  • No Form Data Collection: To protect user privacy, the script does not collect any values entered into form fields (e.g., names, emails, or passwords).
  • Facebook Pixel Enhancement: The tag automatically detects if the Facebook Pixel is installed. It enhances it by passing the anonymous sessionKey to Facebook as an external_id and fires a custom FraudCheck event, allowing for better event matching and audience building.
