IMPORTANT
Our Javascript-based web tag measures total visits to a website. There is only one visit tag needed per website, and it must be implemented on all of your website pages to measure total visits.
The web and action tags fire on the page(s) they are placed, while obeying the required opt-in/opt-out mechanisms. Any comparison of web volumes and Google Analytics is on a like-for-like basis, as the tag is intended to interact in a consistent way with the consent criteria.
Web tags should be placed on the client's website by the web manager. We recommend installing tags two weeks before your campaign goes live to allow time for data QA.
If an advertiser's website is using our 'session stitching' methodology and uses subdomains, an updated version of our tag is needed. Contact Support at support-xp@innovid.com for help with this.
