Cookie-free uniques with daily rotating salt
Counts daily unique visitors by hashing IP + User-Agent + domain with a salt that is destroyed every 24 hours. No cookies, localStorage, or device-persistent IDs; raw IP and full UA are not stored. Trade-off: no multi-day retention or new-vs-returning series.
City-level geo without retained IPs
Derives continent, country, region, and city for maps and rankings from the request IP, then discards the IP. Useful for market mix reporting when you do not need ISP- or coordinate-level precision.
AI referral and channel acquisition views
Breaks down how visitors arrive—search, referring sites, and AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude—so content teams can see discovery outside classic SEO referrers.
Real-time dashboard, events, export, and API
Live visitor activity, page performance, device/browser/OS stats, custom events and campaigns, weekly email reports, data export, and API access on published plans. Integrations include a WordPress plugin and Google Tag Manager snippet placement.
Public B2B DPA with processor role
A published Data Processing Agreement (effective August 2022) treats Analyzati as processor and the customer as controller for visitor measurement. Acceptance is tied to product use under the Terms of Service rather than a bespoke countersignature workflow.
Cookieless 48-hour rotating session hash
Standard tracking does not set cookies. Sitesights generates a server-side salted hash from IP, User-Agent, and site id with a salt that rotates every 48 hours, so long-term cross-day visitor re-identification is intentionally broken. Useful when teams want essential traffic metrics without a cookie-consent banner solely for analytics—confirm legal basis with counsel for your jurisdiction and data fields (including geo).
Sub-1 KB client script plus WordPress and Shopify plugins
Drop-in client snippet marketed as under 1 KB, with official WordPress and Shopify integration paths for non-engineers. Fits marketing sites and stores that need quick instrumentation without a heavy tag manager stack.
Server-side REST API with C# and Node libraries
Send page views and events from your backend with API-key auth so ad blockers cannot strip the beacon. MIT-licensed C# and Node.js libraries on GitHub speed integration; keep API keys off the client. Preferred path for accuracy-critical SaaS and app backends.
Real-time overview with campaign and device filters
Live dashboard for visitors, pageviews, and sessions with advanced filters, UTM/campaign views, geo, browser, OS, screen size, and daytime patterns. Aimed at operators who want essential marketing analytics in one place rather than a full product-analytics suite.
Custom funnels and page-flow journey maps
Build multi-step funnels and visual page-flow maps to see entry paths, routes, and exits. Helps conversion and UX work without session replay. Depth is journey-oriented, not identity-graph product analytics.
Multi-project workspaces with roles for agencies
Group sites and apps into projects, assign roles/permissions, and invite clients or teammates. Marketing materials reference high ceilings for team seats and properties on paid plans—verify current limits on the official pricing page.
| Assurance & compliance | Analyzati | Sitesights |
|---|---|---|
| Independent security / no-logs audit | Not found No public third-party audit PDF or no-logs attestation found on official pages reviewed. | Not found No public third-party security or no-logs audit PDF located on the official site or docs. |
| ISO 27001 | Not found No ISO 27001 certificate claim located on homepage, privacy, or DPA pages. | Not found No public ISO 27001 certificate found on official pages. |
| SOC 2 / SOC 3 | Not found No SOC 2/3 report claim found on public trust materials. | Not found No public SOC 2/3 report found on official pages. |
| GDPR / EU data protection | Vendor claimed EU entity (Barcelona); public GDPR/PECR/CCPA compliance pages; anonymisation design documented; controller/processor roles in DPA. | Vendor claimed German controller (Drude, Grossert GbR); cookieless hashing and EU hosting claims in docs/privacy. Confirm DPA and legal basis for IP/geo with counsel. |
| US CLOUD Act exposure (indicative) | Partial Spanish/EU vendor with no known US parent, but application hosting on AWS (Paris) and US-group subprocessors (Stripe, Freshworks, AWS email, hCaptcha). Residency ≠ ownership. Not legal advice. | Partial EU entity / no known US parent; product hosting claimed on Hetzner Germany. Marketing site lists Cloudflare (US); payments via Paddle; full SaaS subprocessor list not public. Indicative only—not legal advice. |
| Data processing agreement (B2B) | Vendor claimed Public DPA effective 18 Aug 2022; vendor says acceptance is automatic via product use / ToS—no separate signature required. | Not found No standalone public DPA download found during research; request under contract for B2B processing. |
| EU AI Act | Not applicable Product reports AI *referral traffic*; it is not marketed as a high-risk AI system provider. | Not applicable Web analytics product; not marketed as an AI system under the EU AI Act. |
| Considerations & known limitations | Analyzati | Sitesights |
|---|---|---|
| AWS and US-group subprocessors | Medium Measurement app is on AWS Paris; account path also uses Stripe, Freshworks, AWS email, and hCaptcha. EU regions reduce some transfer friction but do not erase US-group provider diligence for many public-sector and bank questionnaires. | Not listed |
| No public ISO/SOC or independent audit | Medium Security claims rely on vendor documentation (HTTPS, hashing, firewalls, backups). Organisations with mandatory cert evidence will need vendor outreach or a different shortlist. | Not listed |
| No multi-day visitor identity | Low Daily salt rotation blocks persistent uniques. Expect gaps vs Google Analytics for returning users, frequency, and retention—by design. | Not listed |
| SaaS lock-in / no self-host | Low No self-host edition found. Exit requires export/API migration to another tool; confirm export completeness in a trial. | Not listed |
| Exact registry name not on marketing pages | Low Vendor states Barcelona incorporation but public pages reviewed did not display a full Spanish company registration string—collect CIF/NIF and full legal name during contracting. | Not listed |
| No public independent security audit | Not listed | Medium ISO 27001, SOC 2, and third-party security audits were not found on public pages. Enterprises may need to commission questionnaires or wait for vendor artifacts under NDA. |
| Incomplete public subprocessor list | Not listed | Medium Hetzner (product) and Cloudflare (marketing site) are documented; backups, email, support, and monitoring vendors for the SaaS are not fully listed. Ask for a current subprocessor annex. |
| US-group CDN on marketing site | Not listed | Low Privacy policy lists Cloudflare Inc. (US) for the public website CDN. Separate from claimed Hetzner product data path, but relevant to overall vendor surface area. |
| 48-hour hash limits long-term visitor analytics | Not listed | Low By design, the rotating salt prevents durable cross-day visitor recognition. Teams needing retention cohorts or multi-week funnels by person must model events differently or choose product-analytics tools. |
| On-premise availability is marketing-only detail | Not listed | Low About page claims on-prem hosting; docs do not provide a self-serve install guide. Treat as sales-assisted until scope is confirmed in writing. |
