This tracking period also applies to compiling online streaming data.

Instagram
Instagram is a photo and video sharing social networking service owned by American company Meta Platforms.

It also added messaging features, the ability to include multiple images or videos in a single post, and a Stories feature—similar to its main competitor Snapchat—which allowed users to post their content to a sequential feed, with each post accessible to others for 24 hours.
