<h3>External services</h3>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>What is sent and when:</strong> 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:</p>
<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>
<p>No cookies are set, no personal data is stored, and no consent banner is required under GDPR or PECR.</p>
<p><strong>When this happens:</strong> only after you configure the plugin with a Site ID in the Loglyuk admin page. Without a Site ID, the plugin sends nothing.</p>
<p><strong>Reading your analytics in wp-admin:</strong> 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.</p>

<p>Simplest Analytics tracks visits and unique users session based serverside without setting 3rd party cookies. It is also possible to track events and url paramaters. After<br />
installing and activation the plugin it’s working without further configuration. If you want to set up custom tracking events or url parameters you can use the settings tab in<br />
the WordPress backend.</p>
<h4>Why use Simplest Analytics?</h4>
<p>It is working. No function overload. Track visits, unique users and custom events like clicks.</p>
<h4>What are the main features of the plugin?</h4>
<ul>
<li>Track page visits and unique users</li>
<li>Track traffic on sites</li>
<li>Track where your traffic comes from</li>
<li>Track where your woocommerce sales come from</li>
<li>Track custom events when a user clicks an element</li>
<li>Track the use of url parameters like your-site.com/?campaign=whatever</li>
<li>Track video views (1sec, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Custom function you can use to track further events</h3>
<p>You can use this function to track further events in php hooks like form submissions, apply coupons, add to cart, etc:</p>
<p>$data = [];<br />
$data[‘track_type’] = “event”; // event or pageview<br />
$data[‘event_action’] = “yourevent”; // name of the event<br />
simple_analytics_track_data($data); // function that saves the event</p>
<h4>How are the charts in the admin dashboard generated?</h4>
<p>The charts are based on google-charts.js which only load in the admin backend. The data is stored in the database on the same server where your WordPress installation<br />
is located.</p>
