<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin loads a tracking script from Loglyuk (https://logly.uk) and sends pageview data to Loglyuk’s servers so you can view analytics for your site. Loglyuk is a privacy-first web analytics service operated at logly.uk.
What is sent and when: every time a visitor loads a page on your site, the tracker script (loaded from <code>https://logly.uk/p.js</code>) sends a small GET request to <code>https://logly.uk/e</code> containing only:
<ul>
<li>the page path being viewed</li>
<li>an anonymous session hash (derived from IP + User-Agent + a daily-rotating salt; not reversible, not stored)</li>
<li>the visitor’s country (resolved from IP at the edge; the IP itself is never stored)</li>
<li>device, browser and OS family (e.g. “Mobile / Chrome / Android”)</li>
<li>the referrer URL, if any</li>
<li>your Site ID (so Loglyuk knows which property the pageview belongs to)</li>
</ul>
No cookies are set, no personal data is stored, and no consent banner is required under GDPR or PECR.
When this happens: only after you configure the plugin with a Site ID in the Loglyuk admin page. Without a Site ID, the plugin sends nothing.
Reading your analytics in wp-admin: when you open the Loglyuk admin page, the plugin fetches your aggregated, non-personal statistics (totals, top pages and referrers) from Loglyuk’s public API at <code>https://app.logly.uk/api/public/<your-site-id>/stats</code> and <code>/breakdown</code>, and renders them natively in WordPress. These read-only requests run only on the plugin’s admin page and only return data you have explicitly marked Public in your Loglyuk settings.

This is a plugin which integrates Google Analytics into your blog or website, but in a different way. It does not install any cookie from analytics, but it does use a php ajax backend which stores the data in php SESSION, which is preserved using a cookie, but a first party technical cookie.

CookieLess Google Analytics

Simple plugin which integrates Google Analytics in your website without using third party cookies
