Do you need cross-domain tracking?
Cross-domain tracking only applies if you have multiple domains. If you have a single domain with multiple subdomains, cross-domain tracking is not necessary! That way, all of your subdomains would be able to read and write to the same cookie.
Is CORS secure?
CORS does not improve security. CORS provides a mechanism for servers to tell browsers how they should be accessed by foreign domains, and it tries to do so in a way that is consistent with the browser security model that existed before CORS (namely the Same Origin Policy).
Why is CORS necessary?
CORS is a way to whitelist requests to your web server from certain locations, by specifying response headers like ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’. It’s an important protocol for making cross-domain requests possible, in cases where there’s a legitimate need to do so.
How do I know if cross domain tracking is working?
You can verify that it’s working by opening the Network Tab in your web browser’s developer tools, and loading a page both on the source domain as well as on the target domain after following a cross-domain link, for example. All requests to /collect should have the parameter &cid use the same value.
When do you need to use cross domain tracking?
If you have multiple related websites that users are likely navigating between during the same session, then cross-domain tracking is essential for capturing a complete picture of visitors’ online experiences. Cross-domain tracking is possible with Google Analytics but installation can be tedious and prone to mistakes.
Do you need to track visitors across multiple domains?
Tracking engagement across multiple domains is essential for qualification and accuracy. Without cross-domain tracking of user engagement, you might be missing out on leads who are more engaged on one site but not the other. How Do You Install Cross-Domain Tracking?

What happens if you do not enable cross-domain request enforcement?
Indicates which response headers are safe to expose to JavaScript. The browser then allows the foreign domain to send its original requests. If you do not enable cross-domain request enforcement, the system removes all cross-origin request headers and CORS is not allowed for the URL.
