We track without cookies. Here's the proof.
datascale.de runs on Plausible Community Edition, self-hosted on Hetzner in Germany. No cookies, no IP storage, no consent banner required. And because we mean it, the dashboard is public: this is exactly what we see.

Why cookieless
Cookie-based analytics under a GDPR-compliant CMP usually requires explicit consent. which means losing 30–50 % of your data depending on audience. Plausible CE doesn't set cookies at all; it identifies visitors via a daily-rotating, hashed combination of user-agent + IP. No personal identification, no consent needed, full coverage.
Why self-hosted
Plausible Cloud is partially EU-hosted, but running Community Edition on our own infrastructure gives us full control: every request stays on our Hetzner server in Falkenstein, no DPA with a SaaS vendor, database backups under our own custody.
What we don't track
No session IDs, no demographics, no interest profiles, no remarketing lists. We see which pages get visited, where traffic comes from, and the rough geo-region. That's it. Enough for our needs, and for 95 % of websites.
Build it yourself
Plausible CE is open source (AGPLv3). Setup instructions live in the Plausible Community Edition repo ↗. We also support setups as part of Measurement & Privacy Engineering engagements.
