When a visitor accesses your website, our lightweight script captures only the essential data needed to provide useful traffic insights. Here’s the exact information we collect:

• URL: The page the visitor opened.
• Hostname: The domain name (e.g., www.example.com).
• Screen Size: The visitor’s screen resolution.
• Language: The preferred language of the browser.
• Tab Title: The title of the webpage being viewed.
• Referrer: Where the visitor came from (e.g., a Google search or another website).

This data is sent to our servers, hosted in Germany, where it is processed securely. But here’s the key:

• We remove all personally identifiable information (PII).
• No IP addresses are stored. We temporarily use the visitor’s IP address to determine their approximate location (Country, City, Region) and then discard it.
• User Agents are not stored.

A User Agent is a string of text sent by a browser that provides basic details about the visitor’s device. For example, it might say something like: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/114.0.0.0 Safari/537.36.

From this, we can identify:

• The browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox).
• The operating system (e.g., Windows 10, macOS).
• The device type (e.g., desktop, mobile, tablet).

However, we do not store this information. It is only used temporarily to determine the browser, the operating system and the device type.

Here’s an example of what a stored record might look like in our database:

Additionally, this record is linked to:

• The specific page viewed.
• The referrer (e.g., Google or another website).

And that’s it. No IP addresses. No complete User Agent strings. No names. Nothing that violates privacy or contravenes the GDPR, CCPA, or similar regulations.

By anonymizing all data, we ensure that nothing we store can be used to identify an individual. This makes our service fully compliant with privacy regulations and allows you to provide a seamless, trust-driven experience, without needing intrusive cookie banners.
