Cookie tracking

All Panelists that have opted in to our market research cookie program will receive a cookie when interacting with the Cint eco-system. As panelists take surveys, the cookie reach will increase.

For Panels that want to increase the cookie ratio outside of our eco-system, we provide the option to do a back-and-forth redirect to one of our endpoints to set the cookie. This requires that the panel have access to the Panelist ID provided by Cint.

The endpoint is located at:

https://sandbox.cintnetworks.com/r/?p={panelistId}&url={redirectUrl}

The endpoint accepts two URL parameters:

• p: the Cint panelist ID associated with the user currently in the browser session
• url: a base64 encoded URL where the user will be redirected back to

📘

Note

When using base 64 we recommend that you make it URL safe for maximum compatibility. We do this by replacing + with -, / with _ and removing =

❗️

Warning

When introducing redirects in a user flow, there is always a risk that the user (due to various reasons) will get stuck in the redirection flow. Make sure that you implement this in a non-critical part of the user interaction flow.
