Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this slow down my store?

A: No. The tracker loads asynchronously and adds minimal overhead. Designed to have negligible PageSpeed impact.

Q: What if customers have ad blockers?

A: Some visitors use ad blockers that may block tracking. We gracefully degrade—your store works fine, we just don't collect data for those sessions.

Q: How accurate is the behavioral data?

A: The data is highly accurate as it's captured directly from user interactions. Pattern observations are based on aggregating real behavioral signals across multiple sessions, not estimations or surveys.

Q: Can I customize what gets tracked?

A: Yes. You can disable specific tracking types (e.g., highlights only, no hovers) or exclude certain pages.

Q: How do I uninstall?

A: One click in Shopify Apps. The tracker is removed immediately, and you can export all your data before uninstalling.

Q: What happens to my data if I cancel?

A: We retain it for 30 days (in case you return), then permanently delete it. You can export before canceling.
