This task can be performed using Statable
Cookieless web analytics hosted in the EU
Set up banner-free analytics
Choose cookieless web analytics that does not write to browser storage or build persistent visitor profiles. Confirm what data it collects, where processing occurs, and whether your jurisdiction requires consent for any remaining identifiers.
Remove the old analytics script, install the new tracker, and test a page visit with browser developer tools. Check that no analytics cookies or local storage entries appear, then update your privacy notice.
Best product for this task
Statable
analytics
Statable is cookieless web analytics for people who want clear numbers without the compliance overhead. No cookies means no consent banner, so you count every visitor instead of only those who click Accept. The tracker is about 2.1 KB, with a 471-byte build. Data is processed in the EU by a Dutch company. Plans start at $9/month for 10,000 pageviews, pooled across unlimited websites rather than charged per site.
What to expect from an ideal product
- Cookieless analytics tools like Statable store no cookies and count every visitor who loads the page, not only those who click Accept.
- If you run multiple sites, Statable pools your 10,000 monthly pageviews across all of them under one $9 plan instead of billing you per domain.
- GDPR-friendly analytics hosted in the EU means your data never leaves Dutch servers, which removes a common legal objection for European businesses and their lawyers.
- The tracker weighs around 2.1 KB with a 471-byte build option, so adding it does not slow your Core Web Vitals or hurt your Lighthouse score the way heavier scripts do.
- Switching to cookieless analytics fixes the undercounting problem that comes with consent banners, where 30 to 60 percent of visitors often decline and disappear from your reports entirely.
More about script auditing
A cookieless tracker can remove the analytics consent prompt, but other site tools may still trigger GDPR obligations. Audit the whole page before removing your banner.
- Clear cookies and browser storage, reload the page, and inspect everything created.
- Check chat widgets, video embeds, advertising scripts, and social media plugins separately.
- Record the results and repeat the audit whenever you add or replace a script.
