For example, when the user opens a promotion page, puts discounted items in the shopping cart, or proceeds to checkout. Segments provide details about the user: how they got to the site (from social media or from Yandex search), what device they viewed the site on (a mobile phone or a desktop computer), as well as their sex and age.
