Opti-Behavior is self-hosted, so you keep full control of visitor data. This guide outlines your responsibilities as the data controller and what to add to your privacy policy. It is general guidance, not legal advice.
Your role as data controller #
Because all data stays on your server, you are the data controller. No visitor data is shared with Opti-Behavior or any third party. You decide the privacy mode, retention, and consent approach.
What to add to your privacy policy #
- That you use self-hosted analytics to understand site usage.
- Whether you run Anonymous Mode or Full Tracking.
- That data is stored on your own server and not sold or shared.
- How long you retain data and how visitors can request deletion.
Sample privacy policy paragraph #
This website uses Opti-Behavior, a self-hosted analytics tool, to understand how visitors use our pages. Data is stored on our own server and is never sold or shared with third parties. Depending on our settings, data may be collected anonymously or after your consent.
Expected result #
Your privacy policy accurately reflects how Opti-Behavior processes data on your site.
FAQ #
Is Opti-Behavior GDPR compliant out of the box? #
It gives you the tools (Anonymous Mode, consent handling, data deletion). Compliance also depends on your configuration and disclosures.
