I have a question regarding tracking a single user by username in Google Anayltics, if can answer it?
There are two sides to our website, the public site and a log in site that allows our clients to log in to their account to collect any documentation we may have provided to their organization. We do not ask them to enter any personal information other than their company email address and job title; these accounts are only for our client as an organization. Anything that is within the portal is all documentation that my company has provided to them. There can be multiple usernames associated with one account.
We are in need of a tracking which users within an origination are logging in. So if Jane Doe from Origination A logs in but John Doe never has, we would be able to see that user name in GA. I know Google Analytics offers this kind of tracking using custom variables, but I am concerned it goes against their privacy policy even though we are not tracking personally identifiable information.
So what we are looking to do is track usernames and the page they visit on our site, can this be done using custom variables, and does it violate GA privacy policy? Is the code used placed in your current tracking code?
Can anyone offer in insight?
