• Measuring, optimizing, and adapting analysis characteristics – such as confirming a certain level of traffic on a website, what type of content is viewed, and how a user reaches a website (e.g., through search engines, directly, from other websites, etc.). Websites conduct these analyses regarding their use to improve their services for the benefit of users.
