In 2021, Alken-Maes implemented Hotjar on its public website to support Customer Experience initiatives. The Hotjar deployment uses a client-side instrumentation snippet to capture behavioral analytics and qualitative feedback across web pages, leveraging heatmaps, session recordings, and on-site feedback widgets that are typical of Customer Experience tooling. The implementation is oriented toward web behavior capture and conversion funnel observation for the company’s digital marketing and e-commerce channels.

Data collection is performed client-side and stored in the vendor cloud, with access through Hotjar consoles and data exports to inform campaign and site optimization workflows. Rollout was limited to the public website and focused on instrumentation and event capture rather than backend system integration.
