Web Beacon: 

A Web beacon is an invisible graphic image, such as a pixel tag or transparent GIF, placed on a webpage or in an e-mail message to monitor user activity, such as whether the webpage or e-mail message is accessed or clicked. They are also used on many web pages for alignment purposes. Technologies like the above may be used with cookies to track how a visitor navigates a website and processes the information on that website.

Types of cookies:

Strictly Necessary:  Some cookies are strictly necessary to make a website usable by enabling essential functions such as page navigation and access to secure site areas.

These analytic services enable us to know how many users we have, which parts of our website are most popular, what browsers are used, the country or region where users are located, and the demographics and interests of users.
