With every redirect click, Ingenious transmits a click id as parameter iclid (Ingenious Click Id). This iclid(s) should be stored on the advertiser-side in the user-session (in a first party cookie, or attached to the sale/order) and transmitted in the conversion tag. Note that an order might have multiple click IDs assigned, because the user might have several independent interactions before the conversion.
Manage cookies server side
Also, writing cookies from the server side can bypass certain client-side restrictions, thereby ensuring more reliable tracking of user sessions and activities
Track cookieless using external click IDs (i.e. gclid, fbclid)

Extend your onpage tag data with Customer id (may be hashed) and Session IDs to improve tracking accuracy.
Avoid Traditional 3rd Party Tag Managers
Traditional third-party tag managers, like the standard Google Tag Manager (GTM) using googletagmanager.com, can be blocked by ad blockers or restricted by browser privacy settings. Instead, consider using GTM and Server-Side GTM (sGTM) with a first-party domain to circumvent these challenges.

Ensure Tag Loading Post-Consent
It's important to load tracking tags only and directly after the user has given consent, without waiting for the next page load. This approach respects user privacy and complies with data protection regulations while ensuring that you don't miss out on valuable tracking data from the moment consent is given.
It is important, that the onpage tag can detect parameters that are relevant for attribution of incoming traffic (like the iclid, amc, others). If only loaded with the next page view this information is lost.
