Tracking pixels
“Tracking code” or “monitoring code”, is precisely a small portion of code that is released by some systems with the aim of being implemented in others to track some data relating to the user and his browsing session or opening emails, in a totally transparent way to the user. The data that is tracked can be the most different, such as the day and time, the geographical position, the type of device used for navigation, up to the more complex tracking pixels to monitor the value spent on a purchase and other useful information for the marketing departments of the companies that use them.

Plugins
is a program that interacts with another program to expand or extend its original functionality. The most used plugins are those of social networks, which allow for example the user to follow a page or a social profile with a click, to indicate with a click that he has liked a web content and to share it on his social network profile, etc.

Widgets
It is a graphical user interface component of a program, which has the purpose of facilitating user interaction with the program. The most used widgets are those of social networks, which allow users to easily open social networks in a separate browser window.
