European analytics tools

Understand your website traffic without violating your visitors' privacy.

Google Analytics sends your website visitor data to the US. Under EU law, that is a problem many site owners do not realise they have. European analytics tools collect the same basic information about your visitors, but store it in Europe and do not track people across sites. Most work without cookies, which means you do not need to show a cookie banner to your visitors. Simpler, cleaner, and legal by default.
