In today’s digital age, tracking website usage is crucial for understanding and improving online experiences. However, this must be done while respecting the privacy of website visitors and complying with regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and cookie laws. At Seez, we are committed to offering powerful analytics without compromising user privacy.
What We Collect and Why
Our analytics solution is designed to track essential website metrics without collecting any personal data or using cookies. We aim to provide valuable insights into your website traffic while ensuring complete anonymity for your visitors. Here’s a closer look at what we collect and why:
- Page URL: Tracks the URL of each page view to show which pages are visited and how often.
- HTTP Referrer: Identifies your traffic source by showing the referrer string.
- Browser and Operating System: Provides information about the browsers and OS versions your visitors use, derived from the User-Agent string.
- Device Type: Categorizes visitor devices into desktop, mobile, or tablet.
- Geographical Data: Determines visitor location up to the city level using their IP address, which is then anonymized and discarded.
Counting Unique Users Without Cookies
We have developed a method to count unique visitors without relying on cookies or persistent identifiers, which are considered personal data under GDPR. By using a combination of the visitor’s IP address and User-Agent, we create a daily changing identifier that is anonymized and hashed to ensure privacy. This allows us to accurately count unique visitors without storing any raw data.
Hosting and Data Security
Our servers are hosted within the EU, powered by renewable energy, and managed by European-owned cloud infrastructure providers. This ensures that all collected data is protected under strict EU privacy laws. We use advanced encryption methods for data in transit and at rest, and we perform regular backups to secure your data.
Data Ownership and Transparency
When you use our service, you retain complete ownership of your website data. We will never sell or share your data with third parties. Our commitment to transparency is reflected in our open-source code, which you can review on GitHub to verify our claims.
