aijamalnk edited a comment on issue #5763: [AIRFLOW-5148] Add Google Analytics to the Airflow doc website URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/5763#issuecomment-520946607 Hi @mik-laj , As Kaxil said, it was my request and I can answer all of your questions. First of all, no one at Google (except for me, but I am wearing by Apache & Airflow hat here) has access to GA. And be assured I used some screenshots only (about # of visitors per day) without any personally identifying info to make the case to get funding for the website development from Google. These statistics are valuable because we are investing in the website and we want to make sure that new UX/UI works and brings value to Airflow users. It is also important for improving the most valuable pages of documentation (including measuring the effects from Season of Docs effort) and see how user behavior changes throughout time. Without GA, i don't think we can have a similar amount of fine-grained information around pageviews, navigation of the website, and time spent on each page (not counting also geographical interest, which can help us fund meetups around the world). Besides me, Sid, Kaxil and Ash have currently access to GA, all of them are Project Management Committee and someone from Apache as you say. But I am also sending email to private@ to add everyone in the PMC. About GDPR it seems we can comply with it if we don't track any User login info (which we don't) and so we don't strictly have to have any notice [1]. The practice in other Apache Projects is to add the following notice to our website: ------------------------------------------------- WEBSITE USAGE PRIVACY POLICY Information about your use of this website is collected using server access logs and a tracking cookie.

By using this website, you consent to the collection of this data in the manner and for the purpose described above. The ASF welcomes your questions or comments regarding this Privacy Policy. Send them to d...@airflow.apache.org ------------------------------------------------- And lastly, i strongly -1 the alternative that you suggested. I don't see a point of abandoning the 'standard' web analytics tool that we can configure to be GRDP compliant and using far less popular project that personally I don't know how to use and have no bandwidth to study.
