Data collected with Hotjar is timestamped in UTC on our servers, then displayed in the timezone set within your browser.
We determine your timezone based on the settings in your browser.
For example, if a user were to browse a site in the EST at 10:00, and someone in the CEST were to view the recording - the time would be concerted to that timezone and be shown as 16:00.
