Confection Overview#

Confection API provides a robust solution for collecting, managing, and utilizing user data in compliance with privacy regulations. It helps businesses capture data lost due to ad blockers and privacy tech, ensuring you don't miss out on valuable insights. With Pipedream, you can harness this data in real-time, triggering actions, analyzing trends, or integrating with other services for a comprehensive data strategy.
