Confidential.tech: Open-Source Analytics | confidential.tech

A self-hosted, cookie-free alternative to Google Analytics for respecting user privacy and providing website traffic analytics.

What is Confidential.tech?

Confidential.tech is an open-source web analytics platform that focuses on privacy. It can be self-hosted on your own server, giving you full control and ownership of your website data.

Unlike Google Analytics, Confidential.tech does not use cookies or store personal information about your website visitors. It generates anonymous analytics by analyzing requests coming to your web server, allowing you to understand overall traffic patterns and trends without tracking individual users.

As Confidential.tech is open source, the code is transparent and auditable. This allows you to verify the privacy protections yourself. The modular architecture also means you can enable only the features you need, reducing potential privacy risks.

By self-hosting web analytics, you avoid sending your data to third parties. The easy installation process, automatic data purging and customizable retention periods let you manage data collection as per your privacy policy.

Key features include real-time views of traffic sources, top pages, referrers and geolocation data as well as comparisons across custom time periods. An API and plugins allow integrating with other tools.

For website owners concerned about user privacy but still needing insights into website traffic and visitor behavior, Confidential.tech offers an ethical and transparent web analytics option.
