Event & Tracking Design
Tracking does not start in a tag manager, but in understanding user actions, decisions, and uncertainty. Strong event design translates human behavior into a coherent, interpretable event model.
Event types, parameters, naming conventions, and validation rules are defined to establish semantic clarity instead of technical randomness. Every event answers a specific question—or is intentionally excluded.
The result is a tracking system that remains comparable, auditable, and usable over time, even as tools, teams, or strategies change.
