Hey everybody,
can someone please explain how exactly Grav produces the statistics on the Admin dashboard? I thought that’s what the session was for, but when I disable that, I still get the statistics. (So what is that used for?)
I am asking because I need to know what to write in my GDPR statement… 
Thank you!
I’m also interested to know this for the same reason. Did you figure it out?
Some of the websites I manage don’t actually need analytics or ads, so I disabled everything, hosted all the libraries and the fonts, so my websites are not setting any cookie, but I can still have the statistics on with no cookie, is that GDPR compliant or should I disable that too?
@Netzhexe, @filo91, I think the “popularity” numbers are GDPR save: They do not seem to contain any personal data that can be related to a user.
The data can be viewed in ‘/logs/popularity/*.json’
Moreover, the “popularity” can be switched on|off in the config of the Admin plugin:
admin.yaml
popularity:
enabled: true|false
Thank you for telling us the location, I’ll look more into it. I know it can be switched off, but it’s a nice feature to have if it’s actually GDPR compliant.
