Use this API for tracking events like email clicks and identifying users associated with those clicks on the destination page.

## How you can track data

Segment supports several ways to implement tracking. The two most common are to use _device-based_ or _server-based_ libraries. You can use Segment's device-based libraries, such as JavaScript, iOS, and Android, to make calls on users’ browsers or mobile devices. You can also track data with Segment's server-based libraries, such as Node, Python, PHP, where the calls are triggered on your own servers and then sent to the Segment servers.
