off topic: do you really track the users mouse movements and personal data (IP & such) on your side without asking for permission? Kinda strange these days, isn't it?


I want to start by saying that that is my own analytics platform.

> personal data (IP & such) I agree, Still storing IP is a bit strange. I am still working on the privacy policy and option to not store IP at all. All tracking is session-based (no cookie), and no personal information is stored (only the IP, which is currently only partially displayed, and which is AFAIK not considered personal information).

> track the users mouse movements The site has no inputs, so it only tracks the mouse movements/scroll. Do you consider this to be a privacy concern, especially if the visit is anonymized (can not be linked to yourself as a person)? Seeing a replay of the visit is really useful for understanding what visitors do on the site and how to make their experience better.

> Kinda strange these days, isn't it? I agree, but I still think it's a lot better than other platforms, it complies with GDPR regulations, no cookies involved, no data is sent to third parties, no personal information is being stored (only the previously mentioned IP). I am also continously improving it and adding more privacy-focused features.
