A session is a time period during which a series of interactions are recorded for a visitor on your website. A single session can contain multiple page views, events, social interactions, and transactions. There is no limit to the number of sessions a visitor can have, but Triptease has a set definition regarding when one session ends and another begins.
When a visitors arrives on your website and a session is generated, all the interactions and events that the visitor carries out are assigned to that session. Once the visitor is considered to have become ‘inactive’ within that session, they’ll have eight hours in which to become active again. If they do not become active again within eight hours, that session is concluded and the next activity on your website by that visitor will be assigned to a new session.
