Data Privacy

EU Data Privacy

The European Union requires any website collecting user data using analytics and/or cookies to display a notice. Existing scripts have been made redundant by a change in the law which requires the website owner to to show the type of data being collected and to allow the visitor to choose between accepting this, refusing it or modifying the type of data collected.
This requires a fairly complex script so, if your website uses analytics, check out the options for a ready made solution.

Google Analytics

If you have inserted Google Analytics code in your web pages you really need to ask yourself if you really need it.
If you don't use analytics for checking user data frequently it is alot easier to comply with the law by simply deleting it.
Simple user data like vistor count and page hits info can usually be supplied by your hosting service. This type of data does not count under privacy laws so ask your host how to access it if you need this info.
