How do websites collect data from their users?
In: 0
When you visit a website, you share some basic information about your device. Such as the browser you are using, the ip address etc. they store those informations to collect the general information.
Another type of data collection is made by cookies. I belive you had seen the cookie disclaimer on the web sites. The store some information on your device and when you visit another website of the same company the quickly identify you.
E.g. lets say you have gmail account. Google knows exactly who you are even if you are not signed up to youtube.
