Abstract
A system and method comprising collecting analytics data or other types of analytics-related information from client devices in an anonymous and authenticated manner. A client device may use or provide a token or token-relation information, which may have been obtained from system servers beforehand, with a request to log the analytics data to the system servers in order to authenticate the analytics data being logged. The system servers may then authenticate the token or the token-related information, and in response to successful authentication, process the analytics data. Advantageously, the use of the token or token-related information allows the analytics data to be logged by client devices anonymously to preserve privacy, but also in a highly secure manner.
