I don't think GA client ID would produce any issue for data protection laws as they are just random IDs assigned by Google, they don't tie back to any personally identifiable info at all. I guess a user ID could be tied back, but it's supposed to be hashed/anonymized before sending to GA. So user ID doesn't seem any different from transaction IDs, which are tracked by virtually every analytics solution and can also theoretically be connected a user. So I personally wouldn't be concerned. Though please keep in mind I'm not in the slightest bit qualified to talk about law 🙂

So for example if i implement only session IDs and not users I should be able to do it without any issues.

Are there any implications with data protection laws in Europe that you are aware of? There won't all the unique IDs will be provided by google so i assume that will be OK?

Thanks in advance

Hey Gamliel, this means you are referencing a variable called JS - GA Client ID, but there is no variable with that name. Most likely you named it something else so that's why it's producing an error. So just make sure the variable containing your GA client ID has the exact name JS - GA Client ID, and the issue should be resolved.

When I try to Preview in GTM as you suggest in STEP 6, I can this for each of the 4 variables. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Validate Container
The container has the following errors:
Type Location Description
Unknown variable name
GA Settings
Unknown variable “JS – GA Client ID” found in another variable. Edit the variable and remove the reference to the unknown variable.
