Heatmap seeks to understand how a user interacts with a webpage and uses that to annotate their history. A user who visits a webpage and hits the back button two seconds later is saying something very different about a page than a user who visits a page, scrolls down, enters something in a form and then bookmarks it! By having a deeper understanding of these behaviors, we can identify successful discovery.

The ingestion process takes a user's history (voluntarily given!), filters out problematic URLs and anonymizes the data as best it can. It then securely communicates the remaining URLs to the server, which stores it in the user's account for aggregate analysis. At any time, the user can delete their data from the server.
