Overview
Clicky is a real-time web analytics platform that provides individual visitor-level tracking. It records page views, actions, goals, and session-level data including referrers and screen resolutions.
What This Script Does
The Clicky tracking script fires on each page load and records the page URL, referrer, screen resolution, browser/OS information, and visitor IP address. It sets persistent cookies to identify returning visitors and track sessions over time. Unlike aggregated analytics tools, Clicky provides individual visitor timelines showing exact pages visited and actions taken. Goal tracking and custom event logging can also be configured.
Consent & Compliance
- Consent Category: Analytics
- Applicable Regulations: GDPR, ePrivacy Directive, CCPA
- Opt-in Required: Yes, under GDPR and ePrivacy due to persistent cookie usage and individual-level visitor tracking
Clicky's individual visitor tracking is more privacy-intrusive than aggregated analytics. The use of persistent cookies and IP address collection makes this clearly non-essential processing requiring consent.
Should You Block This Without Consent?
Yes. Clicky sets persistent tracking cookies and performs individual visitor-level analytics. This is non-essential analytics processing requiring consent under GDPR and ePrivacy. Block until analytics consent is granted.
Is Clicky GDPR compliant?
Clicky typically loads analytics trackers, which are not strictly necessary for your site to work. Under the GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, non-essential cookies and trackers must stay blocked until a visitor gives clear opt-in consent. So Clicky can be fully GDPR compliant, but only if your site holds its scripts until consent is granted and lets visitors decline just as easily. Compliance depends on how your site loads Clicky, not on Clicky itself.
