In general, in one aspect, the invention relates to a system that includes a computer processor, a tracking engine executing on the computer processor, and a translation engine executing on the computer processor. The tracking engine is configured to retrieve a translation engine from a translation engine provider system, detect a user-generated action has occurred, and generate a pre-translated event for the user generated action using the translation engine application programming interfaces (APIs). The translation engine is configured to translate the pre-translation event to obtain a first translated event, prepare the first translated event for transmission to a first tracking system, and send the first translated event to the first tracking system.
