Types of Tracking Technologies
Our software typically uses two methods to track user activity:
- : Pieces of executable code embedded in a web page that track usage activity including the pages users view, when users view pages, and how long pages are viewed.
- : Tiny graphics with unique identifiers embedded in web pages and email messages that track whether a user has viewed a particular web page or email message. User activity information may be associated with additional information about a user's session and personal.
The above are examples of our analytics providers and this is not an exhaustive list. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of any other providers opt-out mechanisms.
