      The tracking script sends a referrer in the pixel URL and the browser itself sends a referrer in the request header.

      Structure of the request from the tracking script

      http[s]://[track domain]/[track ID]/wt?p=[version],[content ID],[JavaScript],[screen resolution],[color depth],[cookies],[client time],[referrer],[screen size],[Java]

      Structure of the minimal request from the tracking script

      http[s]://[track domain]/[track ID]/wt?p=[version]

      http://track.webtrekk.net/111111111111111/wt?p=500,home,1,1024x768,32,1,1234265433426,0,1000x700,1...&[more information as URL parameter]

      Apart from the p parameter, all parameters are sent UTF-8 URL encoded, for example, "Ä" = %C3%84. The p parameter has the following exception: If multiple parameters are passed in the p parameter, the parameters need to be separated by a non-encoded comma (,). The non-encoded comma separates each parameter information so the Intelligence back end can interpret it correctly.
