Proprietary 'Pixel' acts as a first-party tracker for building a unified identity graph.

The proprietary first-party tracking pixel is central to the platform's attribution capabilities. Installed on a Shopify store, it collects behavioral data, click identifiers, and UTM parameters directly on the merchant's domain. Operating in a first-party context, it is less susceptible to browser privacy blocks compared to third-party pixels. This pixel constructs a localized identity graph, linking multiple anonymous sessions into a cohesive customer journey. It ultimately connects these journeys to final purchases, enhancing attribution accuracy.
