Overview
C3 Metrics (acquired by Oracle) is a performance analytics and attribution platform that measures advertising ROI across digital and offline channels using multi-touch attribution modeling.
What This Script Does
The C3 Metrics script fires on advertiser websites to track user interactions across the conversion funnel. It records page views, product interactions, and conversion events, then connects these to prior ad exposures across multiple channels. The script sets cookies for cross-session user identification and collects browser metadata, referral data, and conversion values to power multi-touch attribution models.
