Why Provide Analytics Account Access?

Your Google Analytics account provides a fuller story about how users are interacting with your website. Providing a digital marketing agency with access to this data allows them to make more informed recommendations and decisions. Crosslinked with your Google Ads account, granting your agency access to your Google Analytics account allows them to edit valuable settings, set up goal tracking, and enable remarketing campaigns.

Providing another user or digital marketing agency account access still provides you absolute control over your account. It does not diminish your own capabilities within the system in any way. Sensitive information, such as your login credentials, or credit cards will not be visible to your agency or account manager even if they are allowed access to your account.

You can also remove or revoke a user or agency’s access from your account at any time.
