Overview
Lytics is a customer data platform (CDP) that builds real-time audience segments from behavioral and transactional data. It collects user behavior signals from websites and combines them with CRM and marketing data to create predictive audience profiles.
What This Script Does
The Lytics JavaScript tag collects detailed user behavior: page views, clicks, form submissions, scroll depth, and custom events. It sets a persistent first-party cookie to identify users across sessions and links anonymous browsing data to known user profiles when identification events occur (form fills, logins). Collected data is transmitted to Lytics servers where it is merged with CRM, email, and transactional data to build unified customer profiles. These profiles are activated by syncing audience segments to ad platforms, email tools, and personalization engines.
Consent & Compliance
Lytics is an analytics and marketing tool. It builds comprehensive user profiles from behavioral data and activates those profiles for advertising and marketing purposes. Under GDPR, this constitutes profiling and requires explicit opt-in consent. The persistent cookie for cross-session identification requires consent under ePrivacy. Under CCPA, sharing audience segments with ad platforms may constitute a sale of personal information. Lytics' data enrichment — combining browsing behavior with CRM data — amplifies the privacy implications.
Should You Block This Without Consent?
Yes. Lytics collects behavioral data, builds user profiles, and shares audience segments with third-party marketing platforms. This requires explicit opt-in consent for marketing/analytics under GDPR/ePrivacy.
