Common mistakes

  • 1Not configuring page URL sanitisation, allowing Pendo to capture URLs containing personal data
  • 2Treating in-app guidance and product analytics as a single consent category when they have different requirements
  • 3Passing personal data in visitor metadata when anonymous identifiers would suffice for product analytics

Compliance considerations

Collects detailed product usage data including page views, feature interactions, and user metadata. Auto-captures page URLs and click targets. In-app guides may be considered functional, but analytics tracking requires consent. EU data residency available. Configure data suppression for sensitive page elements and URLs.
