Saffron Analytics
See what matters. Respect what's private
Every site we build includes privacy-focused analytics. No cookies, no consent banners, no third-party tracking. Just clean data about how your site is performing.
Most business websites run Google Analytics. It's powerful, but it comes with baggage: cookie consent banners that annoy visitors, personal data collection that triggers GDPR obligations, and a tech giant monetising your traffic data behind the scenes.
Saffron Analytics is different. Every website we build includes our own analytics dashboard — hosted at analytics.saffronstudio.dev — giving you the insights you need without any of the privacy headaches.
What you get
- Real-time visitor counts
- Page views and top-performing pages
- Traffic sources and referrals
- Device and browser breakdown
- Geographic overview (country/city level)
- Referral tracking for campaigns
What you don't get
- Cookie consent banners on your homepage
- Personal data collection obligations
- GDPR compliance headaches
- Third-party scripts slowing your site
- Your visitors’ data sold to advertisers
How It Works
Simple by design
Built In at Launch
A lightweight tracking script (under 1KB) is added to your site during the build. No setup required on your end — your analytics are running from day one.
Anonymous by Design
We collect aggregated data only. No IP addresses, no fingerprinting, no cookies. There is nothing to consent to because there is nothing personal being tracked.
Your Dashboard, 24/7
Log in to analytics.saffronstudio.dev any time to see real-time visitors, top pages, traffic sources, and device breakdowns. Clean, simple, no clutter.
Your Data, Full Stop
We don’t sell analytics data or use it for advertising. Your business data belongs to you. If you ever leave, we’ll export everything for you.
Frequently asked questions
Is this really included free with every project?
Yes. Saffron Analytics is bundled with every website we build. There are no add-on fees, no monthly charges for basic stats, and no setup required. It’s live from the moment your site launches.
How is this different from Google Analytics?
Google Analytics collects personal data, uses cookies, and requires a consent banner under GDPR. It also feeds data back to Google’s advertising ecosystem. Saffron Analytics collects no personal data, uses no cookies, and doesn’t share your data with anyone. You get the insights you need without the privacy baggage.
Will this slow my website down?
No. The tracking script is under 1KB — roughly 50 times smaller than Google Analytics. It loads asynchronously and has zero measurable impact on your page speed or Lighthouse scores.
Do I still need a cookie consent banner?
Not for analytics. Because Saffron Analytics doesn’t use cookies or collect personal data, there’s nothing to consent to. Your visitors get a clean, uncluttered experience from the first click. If you add other third-party tools that use cookies, those would still need consent.
What metrics can I see?
Real-time visitor counts, page views, top-performing pages, traffic sources, device and browser breakdowns, geographic overview at country and city level, and referral tracking showing which links drive traffic to your site. Everything you need, nothing you don’t.
