Insight in usage of webpages

By using a tool called Hotjar we collect information in so called heatmaps. This way we can see how a page is being used. We store what kind of device is being used, the clicks on a page, the mouse cursor's movement, and the scroll depth. The heatmap give us a quick visual overview of usage of the site.
