Hi all,

we are facing the following problem with Hubspot.

Setup:

- We have various domains. Some of them are pure Hubspot pages. Some of them are pure selfmade. Some of them are a mix of selfmade and Hubspot pages.

- We use the Google Tag Manager to trigger our trackings

- Within GTM also our Consent Tool is injected into the page

- This consent tool is used to have a global consent management for our various domains

- We don’t use Hubspots consent management for the above reason

- Hubspot tracking pixel is triggered via GTM

Problem:

- Hubspot is automatically tracking it’s pages

Goal:

- Stop Hubspot from automatic tracking of pages as we trigger the tag via GTM

Do you have any idea about how this can be done?

Cheers

Torben

Hi @BIUser ,

You can use this script to block HubSpot tracking as described in these [docs](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/events/cookie-banner):

\_hsq.push([‘doNotTrack’]);

You can enable it again by using:

\_hsq.push([‘doNotTrack’, {track: true}]);

Hey Teun,

thank you for your input. Right now this seems not to fix our general problem. This is what we did:

Added

```lia-code-sample
var _hsq = (window._hsq = window._hsq || []);
var _hsp = (window._hsp = window._hsp || []);
_hsq.push(["doNotTrack"]);
_hsp.push(["doNotTrack"]);

```

to our page configuration to block the automatic tracking.

In our GTM Hubspot tracking tag we added:

```lia-code-sample
<script>
 var _hsq = window._hsq = window._hsq || [];
 _hsp.push(["doNotTrack", { track: true }]);
 _hsq.push(["doNotTrack", { track: true }]);

 _hsq.push(['setPath', window.location.pathname]);
 _hsq.push(['trackPageView']);
</script>

```

This results in a blocking of the automatic tracking and the triggering of the GTM tag.

But as soon as we click on a form field the automatic Hubspot tracking triggers a page view.

Cheers
