  • Patent number: 11917029
    Abstract: Systems and methods for tracking anonymous visitors of an online website or mobile app are disclosed. The browsing activity by an anonymous visitor of the online website or mobile app is converted into features and a visitor-identifier associated with the browsing activity generated by the anonymous visitor is determined. The features are stored with the visitor-identifier in a super-visitor-state before the visitor-identifier is associated with a super-visitor-identifier. After the visitor-identifier is associated with the super-visitor-identifier, the features are stored with the super-visitor-identifier in the super-visitor-state. After the visitor-identifier is associated with the super-visitor-identifier, the features associated with the visitor-identifier in the super-visitor-state may be combined, e.g., aggregated, with the features associated with the super-visitor-identifier and the visitor-identifier may be removed from the super-visitor-state.
