szabesz Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 FYI: "Google Analytics Now Illegal in Austria; Other EU Member States Expected to Follow The Austrian Data Protection Authority ("Datenschutzbehörde" or "DSB" or "DPA") has ruled that Austrian website providers using Google Analytics are in violation of the GDPR. ... ...all Google Analytics data can be imported into Matomo so no historical data is lost.

LostKobrakai Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 There are also some other alternatives besides matomo with plausible analytics or fathom analytics. I personally like those because they generally also do less. Most people don't actually need all the fancy advanced features anyways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwired Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Finally an authority that stands up and no longer follows main stream and established behavior. Trying not to be a sheep doesn't get much support or likes Matomo is not like it used to be anymorehttps://matomo.org/pricing/ My 5cts for an alternative, I use bbclone a lot as it gives just enough in most caseshttps://www.bbclone.de/features.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flydev Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I was looking for a self-hosted analytics solution as GA is declared illegal by the CNIL in France. Looking again the module FathomAnalytics made by @Craig, I jumped on Fathom website to compare the lite and full version, quite interesting, but damn things can turn rudes... https://usefathom.com/blog/illegal-analytics https://usefathom.com/blog/6monthsjail https://isgoogleanalyticsillegal.com/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwired Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 What about open web analytics .......... https://www.openwebanalytics.com/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flydev Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I have a better feeling with Go language and the features / compliance of Fathom is for sure better for professionnal (yeah well that's their job), see here, less headhash once you are ready to pay and let them manage the cons. Thanks for sharing pwired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millipedia Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Here's another alternative to add to the list that looks pretty interesting: https://withcabin.com/ Not being charged for pageviews might work for some of our larger clients and the dashboard looks like a happy medium between Fathom and Mamoto both of which we currently use. We've managed to shift a few clients away from GA recently. In part because the shift to GA4 meant there was going to be some disruption anyway so they might as well switch to a more privacy friendly alternative. Also interesting is that I found out about Cabin on Mastodon instead of Twitter .... that's probably a different thread tho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
