About FlockCounter

Our Mission

FlockCounter was born from a simple belief: website analytics shouldn't come at the cost of user privacy. In an era where data collection has become increasingly invasive, we're taking a stand by providing a simple, privacy-focused alternative to traditional analytics tools.

Built and hosted in Europe, we're committed to upholding the highest standards of data privacy and protection. Our approach is simple: collect only what's necessary, store nothing that could identify individuals, and keep everything transparent.

Technical Philosophy

We believe in building software that's both powerful and minimalist. Written in Go for maximum performance and reliability, FlockCounter is designed to be:

  • Lightweight and fast - minimal impact on your website's performance
  • Simple to integrate - just one line of code
  • Easy to understand - no complex metrics or confusing dashboards
  • Transparent - open source code that anyone can inspect or contribute to

Privacy & Compliance

Unlike traditional analytics tools, FlockCounter:

  • Doesn't use any cookies or local storage
  • Doesn't collect or store IP addresses
  • Doesn't track users across websites
  • Doesn't store any personally identifiable information

This approach means you can use FlockCounter without cookie consent banners while remaining fully GDPR compliant.
