Privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, and PECR have made the collection of personal data by Google Analytics a potential liability for website owners. Many fail to disclose their use of Google Analytics, which is a requirement under these regulations.
Google's policies state that website owners must obtain legally valid consent from end-users for the use of cookies or other local storage and the collection, sharing, and use of personal data for personalisation of ads.
Failure to comply with these policies can result in the limitation or suspension of the use of Google products and termination of the agreement.
Recent decisions by the Austrian and French Data Protection Authorities have found that the use of Google Analytics violates GDPR. Similar decisions are expected to be made in other EU member states. For website owners who prfioritize compliance with privacy regulations, a privacy-friendly analytics solution like MetricsWave is necessary.
To ensure compliance, website owners should check if Google Analytics is illegal in their country.
Web analytics, like any other website element, can add extra page weight and loading time to a site.
Google Analytics adds two scripts two you site, one that weighs 28 KB and another of 17,7 KB. In total 45,7 KB. As you can imagine, this affects your loading time, user experience and SEO.
