GDPR-friendly analytics, no cookie banner required.
kindstats gives you GDPR-friendly analytics. Without cookies and without storing IP addresses. Nothing is stored on the visitor's device and no personal data is kept, so in most cases you can run it without an annoying cookie consent banner.
Privacy-first by design.
- No cookies.
- No personal data stored.
- No cross-site tracking.
- No cross-device tracking.
kindstats does not set any cookies or store anything else on the user's device, in line with the EU ePrivacy Directive. We also do not use any cross-site or cross-device tracking. There is no way to know whether the same person visits from another device, another site, or returns the next day.
The goal is to track overall visitor trends on your site, not individual users. That is our »kind« approach to web analytics.
Built on 100% EU infrastructure.
We are fully EU-owned and operated, and so are all our data sub-processors.
We built kindstats to run on 100% EU infrastructure from day 1. Your visitor data is stored exclusively in EU-owned and operated data centers. All our sub-processors are EU-based, so your visitor and analytics data remains under EU jurisdiction at all times. It's a simple promise: data collected in Europe, stored in Europe, governed by European law.
Your data is never sold.
No shady data sharing deals, no third party access.
You own and control all of your visitor data. We never sell or share your data with third parties. That means: no ad networks, no data partners and no analytics resellers involved. The numbers on your dashboard exist for you to read, nobody else.
No cookie consent banner required.
No cookies and no personal data stored by default.
By not using cookies and not storing any other persistent identifier or personal information, kindstats gives you nothing to ask consent for. The usual legal basis for measuring traffic on your own site is legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), and kindstats is designed so you can rely on it.
Do you use cookies?
No. We do not read or write cookies on the visitor's device.
Do you store IP addresses?
No, visitor IP addresses are never stored. Every incoming IP address is irreversibly hashed with a salt that rotates daily, so not even we can recover it.
Do I need a cookie consent banner?
By default, kindstats sets no cookies, stores nothing on the visitor's device and stores no personal information, so no cookie consent banner is required. Other content on your website (such as videos, ads or embedded social media content) may still require a consent banner. Also, if you send custom events that contain personal data, you may need a legal basis for processing that data.
Where exactly is the data stored?
Visitor data is stored exclusively on EU-based servers, managed by ISO 27001 certified hosting providers under EU jurisdiction. Current server locations include Germany, France, Poland, Estonia and the Netherlands. Please review the full sub-processor list for further details.
Do you sell or share my data?
No. We don't sell your data or share any visitor information with third parties. kindstats is funded entirely by subscribers; the only revenue we get from analytics is your subscription.
Is kindstats "GDPR compliant"?
No tool is GDPR compliant on its own; it depends on how you use it. kindstats is built to make that easy: by default, kindstats sets no cookies, stores no personal information and all data remains exclusively on EU servers. If you send custom events that include personal data, you must ensure you have a legal basis for that.
Do you sign a DPA?
Our Data Processing Agreement is part of our terms of service. It applies to every subscription on every plan. If your legal team needs a countersigned copy, contact us and we will arrange it.
