What our analytics tools collect
Google Analytics
Google Analytics is provided by Google. It records the pages you visit, how you reached our site (for example from a search engine, another website or a campaign link), your device and browser type, your approximate location, and actions such as clicking a button or link and starting or sending a form. It does not record what you type into a form. Google Analytics does not log or store IP addresses.
PostHog
PostHog is provided by PostHog, Inc., and the data is stored in the United States. It records the same kinds of page visits, clicks and form actions. It also makes session recordings, which replay how you moved through and used a page. Every form field is masked in these recordings, so what you type is not captured. PostHog receives your IP address and uses it to estimate your approximate location.
We do not send your name, email address or phone number to either tool.
