Self Hosted, No External Accounts, Unlimited Tracking

What people do on your website should be stored in your website and not on a third party cloud space, don’t you agree?

Bubo Insights stores all the data collected in your WordPress database.

Only logged in editors (not just subscribers) of YOUR website can access them through the plugin’s dashboard.

There are no imposed limits to the amount of visits or visitors that can be recorded, but please notice that the WordPress database is not designed to hold several billions of entries without lagging a bit.

Compliant with GDPR and Privacy Laws by Design

100% data ownership. Data is entirely created and stored on your server.
The only sensible data of the user that is being initially collected is the user IP address.

The IP address is merged with the User Agent into a string “(IP+UA)” and then hashed with a md5 hashing algorithm to generate a unique and anonymous ID.
This plugin stores this unique anonymous user ID and completely discards the IP address.
There is no way to trace back the user not even with quantistic computing.
Since no personal data is stored this plugin is compliant by design with any Privacy Law of present and future.

In case you need a proof of the data collection, you can easily export ALL the database tables with ALL the data collected by this plugin in the plugin’s settings page.
Moreover, this plugin doesn’t use cookies or third party cookies to store information about the user.
