Common Mistakes

  • 1 Deploying session replay alongside feedback forms under a single consent category when they have different requirements
  • 2 Not configuring data masking rules for sensitive form fields in the session replay component
  • 3 Treating experience analytics as basic analytics when session replay captures far more detailed user data

Compliance Considerations

Session replay and experience analytics capabilities capture user interactions including clicks, scrolls, and form entries. Consent requirements depend on the features deployed — feedback surveys may be functional, but session replay requires explicit consent. Configure data masking for sensitive fields across all deployed features.

High CrazyEgg

CrazyEgg is a website optimisation tool that provides heatmaps, scroll maps, click reports, and session recordings to help organisations understand how users interact with their web pages. It captures detailed interaction data including mouse movements, click positions, and scroll depth, which is visualised through overlay reports on page screenshots. CrazyEgg is often deployed by marketing and UX teams seeking quick visual insights without the complexity of full analytics platforms. Like all session recording tools, it carries elevated data protection risk because it can inadvertently capture personal data displayed on screen or entered into form fields.
