Abstract
A method may include receiving, from a browser, a request for a tracking pixel including a uniform resource locator (URL) of the tracking pixel and a session identifier (ID) of the browser. The URL of the tracking pixel may be included in a CSS selector. The method may further include sending, to the browser and as triggered by the request for the tracking pixel, a request to scan a document object model (DOM) of the browser. The request to scan the DOM may include the session ID. The method may further include receiving, from the browser, scan results including a set of dependencies on the CSS selector.
