Fathom Analytics

Privacy-First Analytics: We use Fathom Analytics, which is GDPR-compliant and doesn't track personal data.

Fathom Analytics helps us understand:

  • How many people visit our website (not who they are)
  • Which pages are most popular
  • General geographic regions (country-level only)
  • Basic technical information (browser types, device categories)

What Fathom doesn't do: No personal data collection, no cross-site tracking, no behavioral profiling, and no selling of data to third parties.

Future Advertising Plans

Transparency Notice: We may introduce privacy-focused advertising networks in the future to support our free service.

If we implement advertising, we commit to:

  • Contextual Advertising: Ads based on page content, not user tracking
  • Clear Consent: Explicit opt-in for any behavioral advertising
  • User Control: Easy opt-out mechanisms
  • No Data Sharing: File processing data will never be shared with advertisers

Current Third-Party Services
