TRACKING AND PROTECTION EVALUATION Use this to compare a proposed workflow. Not an upload or automatic change. DEFINE THE JOB Business outcome: accepted enquiry / qualified lead / paid order / other: Observed problem and baseline period: Account, campaign, site and destination scope: Control required: billing review / collection / delivery / website enforcement / future ad exclusion / CRM qualification: Current native controls and existing delivery owner: TRACE THE RECORDS Original request or business-event reference (opaque; no customer fields here): Actual consent state, event time, time zone and source: Detection decision and reason; uncertainty and false-positive review: Website action actually enforced and how it was verified: Event owner, exact destination/action, stable transaction identity: Delivery decision, attempted request, response and later diagnostics: Google Ads exclusion target/scope and actual criterion/read-back status: Billing charges/adjustments and business outcome checked separately: CONTROLLED ACCEPTANCE TESTS 1. Known legitimate outcome reaches the intended destination once in the supported setup; repeated local sends and final reporting stay separate. 2. Deliberately withheld test event has a visible reason and no intended outgoing request through that route; inspect overlapping direct tags too. 3. Website enforcement test records the actual page/form response; a withheld event alone does not prove the visitor was blocked from the website. 4. Supported ad-exclusion test has the correct account/campaign target and confirmed application status; a generated list alone is insufficient. 5. Missing/unavailable risk signal follows the documented fallback without silently treating unknown as proven human or bot. 6. Shared-IP/legitimate-customer case and rollback are reviewed in an appropriate test environment before broad enforcement. For every case: environment / expected result / observed evidence / owner / unresolved facts / change date / rollback. Do not change a live ad account merely to fill this worksheet. COMPARE FULL COST AND OPERATIONS Published plan and source date; billing unit and usage cap: Sites/domains/accounts and included destinations: Hosting/infrastructure, setup, maintenance and support: Review time, data retention/export access and cancellation/renewal terms: Effect of false positives and legitimate-customer friction: Supported integration gaps; manual work still required: Do not call flagged visits multiplied by average CPC realized savings. DECIDE Smallest control set that solves the verified problem: Existing capability sufficient / implementation repair needed / new provider: One accountable delivery owner for each business outcome: Evidence supporting the choice; unresolved assumptions: Post-change review period, business outcomes, verified costs and rollback:
