Life After Cookies – Why First-Party Data is Your Business Lifeline

Remember the good old days of easy ad tracking? Those are over. Google’s phasing out third-party cookies, and 2025 is the year of first-party data.

What’s First-Party Data?

It’s the information your business collects directly from your customers—email signups, phone numbers, survey responses, loyalty programs.

Why Should You Care?

Because without it, you’ll:

  • Spend more to reach the same audience
  • Lose targeting accuracy
  • Miss out on data that drives smarter decisions

According to eMarketer, top brands like McDonald's are already pivoting to own more of their data to survive in a post-cookie world. (eMarketer)
