Session recording services not found on this website.
Blacklight did not detect the use of a session recorder, which tracks user mouse movement, clicks, taps, scrolls, or even network activity. Websites that use the technique compile this data into videos and heat maps that website owners can watch to see how users interact with the site. Research has shown these practices are insecure and make sensitive user data such as passwords and credit card information more vulnerable to leaks. This technique was used by fifteen percent of popular websites when we scanned them in September 2020.

Facebook Pixel not found on this website.
The Facebook pixel is a snippet of code that sends data back to Facebook about people who visit this site and allows the site operator to later target them with ads on Facebook.

The Facebook pixel appeared in thirty percent of popular websites when we scanned them in September 2020.
