What data do we collect?
We treat users' privacy very seriously. We collect only necessary data for analytics. The following data is collected:
- hashed User ID
- the country of origin
- data about device and browser
- date and time of access
- time zone
We don't collect private data (like IP addresses).
We don’t use cookies, so your private data is not stored unsecured also on your computer.
Your private data is fully secured
Your private data is encrypted in transit and anonymized. This means that personally identifiable information is removed, so people whom the data describe remain anonymous. We use a hash function to anonymize your private data, so de-identification of your private data is technically impossible.
How do we hash the User ID?
We need a User ID to count unique visitors and to create sessions. A session is 30 minutes of activity for the user. We use SHA256 algorithm to generate a unique user ID.
- IP address
- User Agent
- SALT
- Domain
We do this as soon as we receive the request on the edge. We don't save any of those data except the final hash, which is impossible to guess later.
Privacy laws
Our service using data anonymization respects privacy laws like GDPR and all data is stored in the EMEA region.
