How this website handles your data
Analytics
This website uses a self-hosted analytics service to understand how visitors use the site. The analytics platform is hosted at analytics.byebot.de and is fully operated by me. No data is shared with third parties.
What data is collected
When you visit a page, the following information is collected:
- The page URL path and page title
- The referring website (domain only)
- Your screen dimensions
- Your browser language and timezone
- Your browser, operating system, and device type (derived from the User-Agent header)
- Your approximate location (country and city, derived from your IP address via GeoIP lookup)
- UTM campaign parameters (if present in the URL)
- Clicks on outbound links
- Session duration (measured via periodic pings)
No cookies
This analytics service does not use cookies or persistent browser storage for tracking. Visitor identification is based on a hash of your IP address and User-Agent header, which rotates daily. This means the same visitor receives a new identifier each day, making long-term tracking impossible.
Your IP address
Your IP address is used to derive your approximate geographic location (country and city) and to generate the daily visitor hash. It is not stored in its original form.
