Fair and open web analytics that respects user privacy and gives them control over their data.
About Offen
Offen is a lightweight, self-hosted web analytics tool designed to give website operators useful visitor insights without compromising user privacy. Unlike Google Analytics or similar services, Offen stores all data on your own server and never shares it with third parties. It uses a fair model where visitors can opt in to sharing their data, and the tool only collects minimal, anonymized information.
Offen runs as a single static binary written in Go, making deployment straightforward on Linux servers or via Docker. It integrates easily with any website by adding a small JavaScript snippet. The analytics dashboard provides key metrics like page views, referrers, and user activity over time. The project is developed and maintained by a small German company, Offen GmbH.
This tool is ideal for site owners who need basic analytics but want to avoid the ethical and legal pitfalls of cookie-based tracking. Offen is free and open source under the BSD 3-Clause license. It was built in response to GDPR requirements and has been adopted by privacy-focused publications and small businesses.
