Google uses advanced tracking methods to link user activity across devices: Google Account-Based Matching: If the user is signed into their Google account on both their desktop and mobile device (via Chrome, Gmail, or RUclips), Google can connect the desktop click with the phone call made from the mobile device. Browser Cookies and Device Fingerprinting: If the user doesn’t sign in but uses the same network or similar identifiable parameters, Google can still match the session probabilistically using cookies and other device identifiers.

As you said, I just set up my GAds tag for All Pages, but now I see the tag fired in preview mode on every container load. Is that ok?
Yes.
How does Google Ads know that someone has typed our number on their phone and is talking to us for 60 seconds? How is this measured?
