The Interaction Studio JavaScript beacon places a first party cookie on the visitor's browser which sends data for that visitor back to Interaction Studio. This includes pages visited, links clicked, time on site, number of visits, geolocation, and referral source, as well as other custom data you want collected. Before installing the JavaScript Beacon on your site, it is important to understand the two different types of beacons available as well as determine what kinds of visitor data you want to collect.
