If a customer has 40 sites and a user is identified on Site A, then ONEcount will first set the temp cookie and then OCID cookie and store that data as a known user. 26 + 27 + 28 +If a user visits Site B, then OCID will be able to retrieve that user’s identity, which is stored in cookies on the [[onecount.net>>url:http://onecount.net||shape="rect"]] domain.

The name of the cookie includes a unique customer ID for each ONEcount customer, and a uniqe # for the product.
