Identity Service: First-party cookie solution
Cassie Identity Service allows clients to compliantly retain the correct identity of returning visitors even if the browser enables privacy settings and removes cookies. Collect and attribute accurate data from returning visitors to optimize campaigns and improve the user experience.
Accurately identify up to 35% more web traffic
Cassie’s Identity Service assigns each visitor to your site a unique identifier and creates a record of the consent provided for each cookie loaded to that user’s browser.
When that individual visits the site again, Cassie first-party cookie solution recognizes the visitor based on their unique identifier and regenerates the cookies that internet browsers and privacy features like Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP) have deleted.
Use this valuable insight gathered across multiple engagement points to accurately attribute website traffic and marketing campaigns so that you can make more informed, data-driven decisions.

- Why there is an increased number of new customers within your Analytics data
“Cookies are not evil. Really, I mean it – they aren’t. Yet, they are vilified while paid alternatives that essentially serve the same purpose are somehow seen as superior. The impetus of this problem is a lack of consumer consent. By giving users control of their consent preferences, businesses are creating opportunities for customers to share the data they’re comfortable with, which ultimately leads to trust and brand loyalty.”
Nicky Watson – Founder and Chief Architect (Cassie)
