Transparent, Secure, Scalable
Generally, User Profile Systems (UPS) require creating logs and storing the data on a server. HIP is different – HIP data is stored in a file on the user’s browser.
Using HIP’s configurable tag, you choose the data to be collected and stored on the user’s browser. This is how HIP enables you to share access and control of your data with your users. This secure connection is available only to you and your user – no one else can access your data, unless you share it.
Storing HIP data on user’s browser means no logs or servers are required. This makes HIP a hugely scalable, distributed user profile system.
Selecting what data to collect is where the fun begins. HIP is designed to be used to collect custom data so you can easily explore and experiment with your data. Collect some data and generate basic HIP reports or export the data into an analytics solution like Tableau.
HIP data is what you make it. Sure, HIP can be used to collect all the standard user registration and site analytics stuff like login, preferences, page views, meta-keywords, geo-location and like, but is that all you want to do? HIP is a two way street. Don’t just listen to your users, communicate with them. Remember, users can view your HIP data about them. Have a conversation with them about how you use the data or how you want their input to improve their experience.
HIP makes it easy for you users to engage with your site through a HIP Badge. Placing this badge on your site lets your uses know you use HIP. Mousing over the badge shows the user what HIP is and why you use it – build trust with your users. Clicking on the badge shows the user the your HIP data about them. You can host the HIP data interface on your site or the HIP site – you decide. In fact, mouse over our HIP badge in the footer below and click on it to see the data we have collected about you and how we use it.
