## Implementing analytics in v2.0

The createGlobalDefinition method is renamed to _createGlobalDefinition and set as protected. LOAD event is fired only once.

## Implementing analytics in v1.0

Since version 1.0 all analytics implement deferred loading of analytic scripts. Initialization was splitted into 2 methods.

- `init()` - initializes global variables that mock analytic before it's loaded. This method should be called as soon as possible in your loading sequace.
  - optionally takes `initConfig` object with these settings:
    - `initConfig.purposeConsents` sets user's consents in format `{ '1': true, '2': false }`, see: https://iabeurope.eu/iab-europe-transparency-consent-framework-policies/#A_Purposes
- `load()` - actually loads the analytic script and executes every hit that has been made until this method call. This method should be called at the end of your loading sequence.
