Expand Your Reach: Match your website visitors with people on TikTok, to expand audience sizes for solutions like web retargeting.
Enhanced Matching Capabilities: Advanced Matching, combined with first- and third-party cookies, ensures the best possible matching, especially as third-party cookies face deprecation.

Key concepts
First-Party Cookies: These cookies are created and owned by your website and are used to recognize a person on your domain only. They are enabled by default with the TikTok Pixel but can be disabled in your pixel settings. First-party cookies are essential for maintaining user privacy and ensuring that your website can recognize returning visitors.
Third-Party Cookies: Created and owned by TikTok via TikTok's server, third-party cookies extend beyond individual domains. They are used to recognize and match events across different websites and are enabled by default with the TikTok Pixel.
TikTok Pangle Cookies: These cookies are specific to regions supported by TikTok Pangle and are read rather than set by the TikTok Pixel. In jurisdictions where advertisers use the TikTok Pangle Ad Network, the TikTok Pixel may collect TikTok Pangle cookies to measure ad campaigns.
Key considerations
Turning Off First-Party Cookies: If you decide to turn off first-party cookie usage after initially having it on, no new first-party cookies will be set moving forward. Existing first-party cookies will continue to operate until they expire over time.
Lack of Developer Resources: If you don't have developer resources to update your website, consider integrating third-party consent management platforms to manage cookie consent. These platforms often provide technical resources and implementation options, including banner design and more, to help you manage cookie usage effectively. This can ensure that your TikTok Pixel is used in compliance with user consent.
