What This Script Does

  • Tracks page views and visitor sessions across the site

  • Records referral sources and search keywords
  • Renders an optional visible counter widget showing cumulative page view totals
  • Sends all collected data to Histats servers for reporting

Consent & Compliance

  • Category: Analytics
  • GDPR: Requires consent as it collects visitor behavioral data and transmits it to a third-party analytics provider
  • CCPA: Visitor data collection should be disclosed; standard analytics tracking
  • ePrivacy: Consent required for analytics cookies and tracking scripts

Should You Block This Without Consent?

Yes. This is a third-party analytics service that collects visitor data for reporting purposes. It is not required for the site to function.

Is wisecode GDPR compliant?

wisecode 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 wisecode 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 wisecode, not on wisecode itself.
