Event Deduplication

Event deduplication is the process of identifying repeated records of the same action and counting the underlying action only as intended. A website may send a conversion event from both a browser tag and a server integration, or a form script may fire twice after one successful submission. Without appropriate safeguards, a report could overstate leads or purchases. Deduplication often relies on shared event identifiers and platform-specific processing rules, so the exact implementation depends on the tools used. It differs from filtering internal employee traffic, which excludes a different class of activity. A successful deduplication check should compare real submissions or bookings with reported events rather than assuming every recorded event represents a unique customer.
