+## Description
+
+An object of this type is accessed via the {{domxref("navigator.userActivation")}} property, and can be used to query information about a window's user activation state.
+
+A user activation either implies that the user is currently interacting with the page, or has completed an interaction since page load.
+User activation can be triggered by a button click, pointer touch, or some other user interaction with the page.

+There are two kinds of window user activation states:

+- {{Glossary("Transient activation")}} (user is currently interacting with the page) and
