Out-of-the-box, BlueConic collects a number of profile properties (attributes) for all of your known and anonymous users. Your customer dataset doesn't end there! You can still:
- Configure as many other first-party behavioral data points as you need to better understand your audience and improve relevancy and outcomes across all funnel/lifecycle stages.
- Bring data in from other marketing platforms or data warehouses (dwh) to completely round out your user profiles.
Single-value versus multi-value data
The attributes collected and stored by BlueConic can be single-value or multi-value. For example, you might have a profile property that contains "visit dates" (all dates the visitor has been to a specific web property). You also have the out-of-box property that contains the most recent visit date. This extends to all data points; it is common to store the same type of data in different ways to get unique views into your customers and segments. Campaign tracking parameters are often stored in three ways: first, most recent, and all.
The information gathered by BlueConic comes down to configuration. You can configure BlueConic Listeners to enrich a customer profile based on behavior or provided input. You can also configure BlueConic Connections to bring data in from other systems.
Engagement profile properties
The BlueConic Engagement Listener collect information about customer engagement, based on the user's engagement patterns. Learn more about how the Engagement Listener collect customer engagement data for you.
Profile property data the Global Listener collects automatically
The BlueConic Global Listener comes out of the box and collects several types of customer data including behavioral profile properties. There are two types of profile properties collected by the Global Listener:
- The first set of values are overwritten each time they are captured (i.e. a single value is stored).
- The next set of values store persistent, multi-value data.
You can disable the Global Listener if desired. Contact your Customer Success Manager for more information.

++ SDK implementations
Certain profile properties (marked above with ++) are collected only with SDK implementations.
*Note about search keywords
The Global Listener stores keywords from search engine results that include referral keywords.
Privacy management
Global listeners can be added to Objectives, allowing for privacy and consent management of the information that is being picked up. The Global Listener will only work if the visitor consented to at least one of the objectives that it is linked to.
