The Physical Web is making its way to the real world, near you, right now. And as a marketer you need to know what is it, and how you can use it.

I had the privilege of meeting with Peter Lewis to talk about what’s up with beacons for developers. We learn about how this technology continues to mature, and talk through some fun examples of where beacons have been used in places such as the city of Amsterdam. We have a great chat about how the various platform APIs for management make building applications for beacons so much easier — particularly when it comes to attaching semantics to beacons. I’ve built apps myself, but had to roll my own data associations with them. Come learn more about the possibilities from a product manager at Google and one of the world’s foremost experts in beacons!

InsurePlus Limited's use of web beacons
InsurePlus Limited may also use tracking technologies called web beacons to collect information about your visit to InsurePlus Limited sites. These are small images embedded in web content and HTML-formatted email messages and are ordinarily not visible to users. Like cookies, this technology enables us to track pages and content accessed and viewed by users on InsurePlus Limited sites. Also, when we send HTML-formatted (as opposed to plain text) emails to our users, this technology may be embedded in such emails. Using web beacons allows us to determine whether emails have been opened or links were accessed, and identify aggregate trends, individual usage, and generate statistics about how our site is used. This enables us to provide our users with more relevant content or additional information about our services.

Web beacons are often used in combination with cookies; however unlike cookies, web beacons cannot be declined when delivered via a regular web page. However, they can be refused when delivered via email. If you do not wish to receive this technology via email, configure your email software to disable HTML images or refuse HTML emails (selecting the option for text only viewing). Setting your browser to decline cookies or to prompt you for an opt-in response before cookies are set will also reduce web beacons' functionality.
