I do not track you.
This page is inspired by Laura Kalbag's privacy page. I hate creepy tracking that follows me around the web and invades my privacy. That's why I don't use any analytics, third-party web fonts, or social network buttons that track you.
However, I am interested in the popularity of my blog. This is to help me understand which posts my readers enjoy, and therefore which topics I should continue to write about. I use Netlify Analytics for this purpose.
Netlify Analytics shows me:
- Page views: instances of my site's pages being served.
- Unique visitors: different IP addresses engaging with my site (though I cannot actually see your IP address).
- Top locations: locations where my site has had the most page views.
- Top pages: pages of my site that have had the most page views.
- Top resources not found: resource requests for my site that returned the most 404 errors.
- Top sources: URLs that generated the most traffic to my site.
- Bandwidth used: how much data Netlify's CDN has served for my site.
This is all gathered on the server. There is no client-side JavaScript or cookies that gather personally identifiable information.
