Each region rule can override the tier, the consent requirement, IP truncation and geo precision. Regions are derived from the country of the address before it is discarded (and for the US, whether the state is California). A blank field inherits the project default.
What a region rule overrides
Regions are derived from the country of the address before it is discarded (and for the US, whether the state is California). Each region rule can override the tier, the consent requirement, IPv4 / IPv6 address truncation, and the geography granularity:
| Region | Default rule |
|---|---|
| EEA, UK | Inherits the project default; when the last 30 days have EU / UK visitors, the center suggests enabling IP truncation for these regions only |
| US-California | Inherits project default; opt-out honored |
| Rest of US | Inherits project default |
| China (CN) | Inherits project default; China mode adds further rules |
| Other | Inherits project default |
Privacy signals always win
A blank field inherits the project default. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track are honored in every region and force tier 1 for that hit, regardless of the region rule — see how DNT and GPC are honored. China has its own extra layer in China mode.
