Analytics (Independent Analytics)
We use Independent Analytics to track and analyze the usage of our website. This helps us understand how visitors interact with our site so we can improve our content, user experience, and overall functionality.
How Data is Collected and Processed
Independent Analytics is a privacy-friendly analytics solution. Unlike traditional tracking tools, it is designed to respect your privacy out of the box:
- No Third-Party Data Transfers: All analytics data is recorded and stored locally on our own secure web server. Your data is never shared with, sold to, or accessed by any third party.
- No Tracking Cookies: The software does not use cookies, web beacons, or similar tracking technologies to monitor your behavior across the web or identify you on return visits.
- Data Minimization: We only collect aggregated, non-personally identifiable information (non-PII) to see general trends, such as which pages are visited most frequently and what referral sources brought visitors to our site.
Data Anonymisation
To ensure maximum privacy, any IP addresses processed during your visit are fully anonymized. We do not store full IP addresses, meaning it is impossible for us or anyone else to link the analytics data back to an identifiable individual.
Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR / CCPA)
Because Independent Analytics does not collect personally identifiable information or use tracking cookies, it does not require prior cookie consent under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The processing of this anonymous data is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in maintaining, securing, and optimising our website.
