thanks for your time.

users is unique users per time period

sessions is "raw" users per time period (ie, user counted more times if visits more than once...however google defines that, idk, maybe its via session cookie, maybe its 2+ hours or 6+ hours between visits...who knows)

page views is the total number of page views...doesn't matter how many users, raw or unique...it just counts the total number of page views

By default, a session lasts until there's 30 minutes of inactivity, but you can adjust this limit so a session lasts from a few seconds to several hours.
