#Privacy and analytics

Measuring a blog while respecting the people who read it. We cover consent for analytics and marketing cookies, what data you actually need, and privacy-friendly ways to measure content performance. You will find why analytics numbers are often incomplete once consent is respected, and how to interpret them honestly. We also cover newsletter consent and handling subscriber data. Rules vary by jurisdiction, and nothing here replaces advice from someone qualified in yours.
