Taking this opportunity to tell you about my open-source side project: I've built a very simple event-based analytics solution some time ago. You can simply host it yourself and track basic events. It's not possible to track any personal information, not even IP: https://github.com/shafy/fugu

Fugu (code) provides simple, privacy-friendly, open source and self-hostable product analytics. While many tools claim to be Google Analytics alternatives, one of the things Fugu really gets right is properly doing "product analytics" – Going beyond simple view tracking to help you figure out how users are using your (web) software.

Here’s a project of mine that’s configured for Gitpod if anybody wants to use it.

I’m the creator of Fugu, which is a privacy-first alternative to Mixpanel/Amplitude. It focuses on simplicity with a very restricted feature set, and is open-source and self-hostable for free. I offer also a hosted version that is paid.

If you track Personally Identifable Information, such as IP addresses or emails, yes. If you track completely anonymously, then no. Of course, this limits what kind of anylses you can do (e.g. cohort-based analyses will be impossible). But I would also wager that you don't really need that, especially if you're a small startup. You can have a look at my open-source, self-hostable Mixpanel alternative if you are interested: https://github.com/shafy/fugu

You can have a look at my .gitpod.yml config file at one of my open source apps, Fugu, for inspiration.

Fugu is a product analytics tool that focuses on privacy and simplicity. Think of it as an alternative to Mixpanel or amplitude. I've created it because I couldn't find a good event-based analytics tool that has these two requirements. Read more on https://fugu.lol
