google analytics how does it save data?
<p>I understand that google analytics uses first party cookie tracking, so it sets the cookie from the domain being visited with javascript (rather than setting the cookie from google-analytics.com)</p>

<p>I am wondering how the ga.js google analytics script saves the cookie data to the database to be reported on by google analytics?</p>

<p>I cant see any reference to a script or url where the data is being saved to a db e.g. in here <a href="http://google-analytics.com/ga.js" rel="nofollow">http://google-analytics.com/ga.js</a></p>

<p>Any ideas?</p>

<p>Cheers Ke</p>
