16 16  ONEcount sets 2 types of cookies: A temp cookie(**~_~_tempcookie**) on the first visit- and an OCID cookie(**~_~_ocid**) when the user is identified by registering, logging in, or when OC performs a cookie sync. All ONEcount cookies are first-party cookies, which means they are supported by all web browsers.

19 19  When a user visits the site for the first time, he or she will have no ONEcount cookies for that site.  In order to facilitate multi-site tracking, targeting and gating, ONEcount will set **~_~_tempcookie.**
20 20  
24 +\\
21 21  
22 22  Upon registering, clicking on a smartlink, or being identified through a cookie-sync with a third-party, ONEcount sets an **~_~_ocid** cookie showing that we have identified the person as a known user.
23 23  
28 +\\
24 24  
25 25  This helps a brand that has multiple sites. 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 26  
32 +\\
27 27  
28 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. At this point, the user is known and his or her activity can be tracked across all brand sites that the user has registered for.

72 72  **_ocfreepass**: counts pages that are part of a gating product. So if [[domain.com/articles/>>url:http://newrepublic.com/articles/||shape="rect"]] is the URL of the product, ocfreepass will increment on each page view if domain[[.com/articles/>>url:http://newrepublic.com/articles/||shape="rect"]], but it will not increment on a page view of [[domain.com>>url:http://newrepublic.com||shape="rect"]] because it is not a gated product. The name of the cookie includes a unique customer ID for each ONEcount customer, and a uniqe # for the product. In this way, if the same URL is in two different products, there will be two different cookies, one for each product. The number is the product_Id.
