What is the Extended Privacy Mode?
The Extended Privacy Mode is the strictest of all Viewtracker privacy settings. It doesn't show user-specific information to anyone. All reports will output only the number of views. How many Viewers these views have generated is not counted and also not output in the reports.
-
There is no link between the action and the user. Nobody can see which user has viewed which page, for example.
-
This information remains hidden even if the data privacy setting is changed at a later stage.
-
Actions that are visible on the page (comments, likes, etc.) will still be tracked.
