      Our company does not want it up there. Is there a way to remove it without have to change the conversion tracking code? It's quite a pain given our internal processes to overhaul many conversion codes. Is there an easy way to do this so that we can simply remove the tag?

        If you don't want the text to appear but do want the conversion code to remain, could you not just make the text the same color as the background?

        It would look like this on a white background: var google_conversion_color = "ffffff";

          I'd check with Google's Terms of Service. You may be required by their TOS to have that on there.

            I did a little research, and this page https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/1722022?hl=en has useful information about the Site Stats info. Following is the relevant excerpt about when you need the box. I don't have a clear answer for how to change the settings and remove it in bulk, however.

            • Conversion Tracking includes the option to notify customers about cookies: During the setup process, we'll help you create a notification box for your website that lets your customers know they're being tracked. This is known as the Google Site Stats box, which appears on your conversion page -- the page customers see after they complete a conversion. Google Site StatsThis notification appears only for customers who've been referred by Google to your site. When customers click on it, Google tells them that they don't have to accept the conversion cookie if they don't want to and reminds them that none of their personal information is being recorded or used in any way. Customers will also have an opportunity to provide feedback about your website.
            • Promote a clear privacy policy: If you don't use the Google Sites Stats box, we ask that you review your website's privacy policy to make sure it discloses your use of tracking technology.

              Displaying "Site Stats logo" is optional since ages ( http://adwords.blogspot.hu/2008/09/conversion-tracking-site-stats-logo-is.html ).

              You can modify the "Tracking Indicator" setting of the existing conversion to "Don't add a notification to the code generated for my page." and generate a new tracking code.

              The only difference will be in the following line, this way you can change all your conversion codes in bulk:

              var google_conversion_format = "2"; // WITH Site Stats logo

              var google_conversion_format = "3"; // WITHOUT Site Stats logo

              Hope this helps, feel free to ask.
