Website analytics
PostHog on EU Cloud measures site usage without cookies. Before you choose, and if you decline, it records which pages are viewed, plus three actions: clicking "Book a demo", submitting the early access form, and that form's result (success or the error reason). The form events carry the plan you picked, and the result event carries the outcome. It records no other clicks, no other form content and no session recordings. To count unique visitors, PostHog derives a short-lived code on its own servers from your IP address and browser details, together with a salt that changes daily and is deleted once that day's events are processed. We have set PostHog to discard IP addresses from stored events. PostHog also stores one small item in your browser's local storage that records the tracking mode, and sets no cookie.
Google Analytics 4 (GA4) also loads on every visit, before you choose and if you decline. In that state it does not read or write Google's analytics cookies. It sends Google cookieless measurements that carry a timestamp, your browser's user agent, the referring page, your consent state and a random number generated on each page load. We also send a page view with the page address and title. As with any web request, Google receives your IP address. GA4 collects EU visitor data on EU servers, then forwards it globally, including to the United States, under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. That applies whether or not you accept.
Depending on its settings, GA4 can also record how you interact with a page, before you choose and if you decline: scrolling, clicks on links to other sites, site searches, file downloads, video engagement and form interactions.
Google signals is a Google Analytics feature that lets Google associate visits with the Google accounts of visitors who are signed in and have Ads Personalization turned on, so it can measure across their devices. If it is active, Google Analytics can do this for our site. The advertising consent settings on this site (ad storage, ad user data and ad personalisation) stay denied in every state.
If you accept the banner, PostHog sets a first-party cookie scoped to commt.co and its subdomains. It then also records clicks, form interactions, and the text and attributes of the elements involved, and may record the session. Google Analytics 4 switches to its first-party cookies, which last two years, and measures in full. Browsing is not tied to your name or account. Joining the early access list is the one exception: if you accepted the banner, we send PostHog a masked form of your address, such as m***@a***.com, and we store your PostHog visitor id with your contact at our email provider, so a signup can be matched to the visit it came from. The full address goes only to our email provider.
