What do you mean by track? Are you referring to your or their PC? Sounds like an advertisement? – Seth – 2016-10-28T09:30:32.353

I mean track as taking data in my pc without my knowledge. – Ezhilarasan – 2016-10-28T09:32:55.353

Which is not what tracking usually refers to. What tracking usually means is identifying you across multiple visits to (different) websites possibly even with different bowers/across multiple browser sessions. Most browsers don't allow local access to data but with Plugins like Flash/Silverlight/Java there might be some possibilities. There is always a possibility of exploits hat could exist. Best way is to use your own judgment and make sure it's a reputable site/service offering the chat. – Seth – 2016-10-28T10:04:07.107
