Other Tracking
We also use similar technologies including tracking pixels and link tracking to monitor your viewing activities
Device & browser type and open statistics
All emails have a tracking pixel ( a tiny invisible image ) with a query string in the URL. Within the URL we have user details to identify who opened an email for statistical purposes.
Link Tracking
All links within emails and SMS messages sent from the Force24 platform contain a unique tracking reference, this reference helps us identify who clicked an email for statistical purposes.
