After upgrading to Joomla! 3.10.3, banner component started logging every individual impression and click, instead of logging hourly impressions/clicks.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Publish a banner on the frontend
Enable "Track impressions" in Banner component settings
Navigate through the frontend for a while, so the banner is loaded a few times
Check Banner Tracks in Banner Component

Expected result

A single log per hour for each banner should be displayed in Banner tracks view.

Actual result

Several logs per hour are shown for each banner (check attached image). This causes _banner_tracks table to grow insanely fast (nearly 3 million records in barely 3 weeks), and make banner component hard to manage.

System information (as much as possible)

mysql - 5.6.40 - utf8_general_ci - utf8mb4_general_ci
PHP 7.4.27
Apache
