All data is isolated to a single day

All the data is isolated to a single day only. There is no way to know whether the same person comes back to a site on another day.

No cookies and other persistent identifiers

We do not generate any persistent identifiers either. We generate a random string of letters and numbers that is used to calculate unique visitors on a website and we reset this string once per day. This makes us compliant with the different cookie laws and privacy regulations such as GDPR and PECR.
