This Privacy Policy explains how PageviewsOnline ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you visit our websites or use our services.
By accessing and utilizing PageviewsOnline website and services, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy.
Introduction
PageviewsOnline is a privacy-first website analytics service designed to provide simple traffic insights without user accounts, cookies, or invasive tracking.
This policy applies to both:
- visitors to PageviewsOnline websites, and
- visitors to websites that use the PageviewsOnline analytics script
Privacy-First Philosophy
PageviewsOnline is built with privacy as a core principle.
Our goal is to provide useful website analytics while minimizing data collection and avoiding the storage of personal data wherever possible. We intentionally avoid techniques commonly used by traditional analytics tools, such as cookies, fingerprinting, persistent identifiers, or user accounts.
Age Requirement
PageviewsOnline is intended for individuals aged 16 years or older.
We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 16. If you believe that data related to a person under 16 has been processed through our Service, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
PageviewsOnline does not use cookies.
This includes similar technologies, including but not limited to local storage, session storage, fingerprinting techniques, or any similar client-side storage or tracking technologies.
No data is stored on visitors' devices by the PageviewsOnline analytics tracking scripts.
Data We Track (in Transit)
When a page is loaded on a website using PageviewsOnline, certain technical information is temporarily processed in order to generate analytics.
These data points may be temporarily processed when analytics are generated.
| Data Point | Example |
| Webpage full URL | https://www.pageviews.online/terms/?utm_source=frontpage |
| IP number | 123.123.123.123 |
| Browser User Agent | Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/142.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 |
| Number of browser touch points | 2 |
| Referral URL | www.google.com |
| Browser screen width in pixels | 1024 |
These values are used only to derive coarse device categories and are not stored or combined to identify individual users.
IP addresses are processed transiently for geographic derivation and are not stored in identifiable form.
Data We Store (Persisted Analytics)
We store only anonymized and aggregated analytics data.
These data points are persistently stored.
| Data Point | Example | Derived From |
| Website hostname | www.pageviews.online | Webpage full URL |
| Browser screensize | mobile, tablet or desktop | Browser screen width in pixels |
| Referral site hostname | www.google.com | Referral URL |
| Browser | Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera, etc | Browser User Agent |
| Platform | Windows, Mac OS X, iOS, Android, etc | Browser User Agent |
| UTM (Urchin Tracking Module) Source, Medium and Campaign | google, link, ad, etc | Webpage full URL |
| Country Code | se, us, ca, de, etc | IP number |
| Timestamp | 2025-12-24 17:34:29 | The current time in UTC |
We do not store personally identifiable information such as full IP addresses, full user-agent strings, cookies, unique identifiers, or session data.
Public Analytics by Default
By default, analytics data generated through PageviewsOnline is publicly accessible.
This means that:
- Analytics dashboards may be viewable without authentication
- Aggregated traffic statistics may be publicly available by domain hostname
Users may choose to restrict access to analytics data through paid or premium features, where available (for example, password protection or private dashboards).
It is the responsibility of the website owner to understand and configure the visibility of their analytics data.
Data Storage Location
PageviewsOnline operates from Sweden.
Analytics data is stored and processed within the European Union, primarily using Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure located in the EU (eu-north-1) region.
We aim to keep all analytics data within the EU. If infrastructure or operational requirements change, data will continue to be stored and processed in compliance with applicable EU data protection laws.
Data Sharing
We respect your privacy.
PageviewsOnline does not:
- sell analytics data
- rent analytics data
- share analytics data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes
Analytics data is used solely to operate and improve the Service.
We may rely on trusted service providers (such as cloud hosting or infrastructure providers) strictly to operate the Service. These providers act under contractual obligations and may not use the data for their own purposes.
Legal Basis for Processing
PageviewsOnline processes data under the following legal bases, as applicable under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):
- Legitimate interests, to provide and operate a privacy-friendly analytics service and to improve security and reliability
- Contractual necessity, where required to deliver services requested by site owners
- Legal obligations, where required to comply with applicable laws
Because PageviewsOnline avoids storing personal data wherever possible, many GDPR obligations related to personal data do not apply to stored analytics data.
Data Retention
We retain analytics data only for as long as necessary to operate the Service and provide analytics insights.
Retention periods may vary depending on technical, operational, contractual agreements, or product requirements and may change over time.
Aggregated analytics data may be modified, reprocessed, or deleted as part of system maintenance, performance improvements, or product changes.
GDPR and EU Data Protection Rights
PageviewsOnline operates from Sweden and complies with applicable European Union data protection laws, including the GDPR.
Where personal data is processed, individuals may have rights including:
- Right of access - Request a copy of your personal data
- Right to rectification - Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") - Request deletion of your data
- Right to restrict processing - Request limits on how your data is used
- Right to data portability - Receive your data in a structured, commonly used format
- Right to object - Object to processing of your data in certain circumstances
Because PageviewsOnline does not store identifiable personal data in its analytics databases, it may not always be possible to associate stored analytics data with a specific individual.
Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Third-Party Services
The Service may contain links to third-party websites or services.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or policies of those third parties. Your interactions with third-party services are governed by their respective privacy policies.
Tracking is Enabled by Site Owners
Analytics tracking only occurs when a site owner or developer has deliberately chosen to install the PageviewsOnline tracking script on their website.
If you are a visitor to a website that uses PageviewsOnline and have questions or concerns about analytics on that site, you should contact the site owner directly. The site owner is responsible for deciding whether to use analytics, how it is configured, and whether analytics data is made public or restricted.
PageviewsOnline acts solely as a technical service provider for analytics and does not independently decide which websites are tracked.
Right to Data Removal
Site owners may request the removal of their website and any associated analytics data from PageviewsOnline at any time.
To request data removal, the site owner must contact PageviewsOnline using the contact information provided in this Privacy Policy. Upon receiving a valid request, we will delete or deactivate the site and remove associated analytics data within a reasonable timeframe.
Please note that PageviewsOnline cannot delete data that may have been cached, indexed, archived, or otherwise stored by third-party services (such as search engines or external caching services) while analytics data was publicly accessible.
Once removed from PageviewsOnline, we do not retain copies of deleted analytics data beyond what is technically required for system integrity or legal obligations.
Updates to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our practices, services, or legal obligations.
The latest version will always be available on this page.
If we make significant or material changes, we will announce them through one or more of our major communication channels, which may include our website, email, Discord, or other official communication channels. Please follow these to keep yourself updated.
