Web referrer Schema

https://ns.adobe.com/xdm/context/webreferrer

The referrer of the web page, which is the URL a visitor came from immediately before the current web interaction was recorded. The information in this schema is semantically compatible with the information in the HTTP referer header field, but allows for additional classification.

Note: While the HTTP specification uses the term "referer", XDM follows the Document Object Model specification and uses the spelling "referrer", which is more widely accepted as the correct spelling.
