About Simple Analytics
Simple Analytics is a privacy-focused website analytics tool. It records pageviews and events without cookies or visitor IDs, and its data is hosted in the EU.
What it does
The tool shows pageviews, events and traffic sources in a simple dashboard. It is designed to run next to Google Analytics, so you can compare its counts with GA4 when visitors reject cookie consent. Session starts are calculated from pageview context rather than from visitor identities, which keeps the approach privacy-friendly.
Key features
- Pageview and event tracking
- No cookies, personal data or visitor IDs
- EU-hosted data
- Side-by-side comparison with GA4
- Live dashboard
Who it's for
Publishers, agencies and businesses that want accurate traffic counts under strict privacy rules. Teams already using GA4 who want an independent second count will find the comparison useful.
Pricing and good to know
Pricing is not listed on the page. The site invites visitors to book a demo and offers a free 30-day proof of concept. The company describes itself as EU owned and based in Amsterdam. Because the tool is meant to sit beside GA4, expect to spend some time comparing the two sets of numbers, since they count sessions in different ways.
