May I suggest a cookieless and codeless solution with data stored in the EU: https://www.hockeystack.com

We're building the most comprehensive, but still easy-to-use analytics tool out there. Specifically useful for SaaS businesses that want to collect and unify marketing, product engagement, sales, and subscription revenue data.

Why is "data stored in the EU" a selling point?

I've seen tons of similar analytics products pop up in the last year and have avoided them all for having out-of-country data storage (and usually less functionality, etc). With how volatile data-related laws have been in the EU the past few years, IMO it feels risky to try to store anything there, let alone view it as a feature!

I think you're putting your finger on why it is a selling point. You're avoiding them because they're out of country, and that makes sense. For Europeans, the default has been "US hosted data" for a long while, and having options that store data in our jurisdiction is thus a selling point.

Fewer jurisdictions is almost certainly going to be easier, and these options offer that for the European market.

Thanks for the explanation. HN is so notoriously US-centric at times that it didn't occur to me that these services offer the same perks from the other side of the pond.

I'm not sure how you get to that conclusion. Data privacy laws are among the strongest in the world here. It is a selling point because of that, but also because there are laws against sending user data to non-EU countries.

>Data privacy laws are among the strongest in the world here

The fear is that you would now have to adhere to those "strongest laws" by hosting your data there.

How is that a bad thing?

Less risk is good for businesses

You have way more risk storing your data in a potentially un-private way in the US.

It feels risky to have my data stored anywhere else other than the EU. Feels like my data is just up for grabs anywhere else with no clear privacy protection. Imo EU is the best place to have your data.

Your pricing is an order of magnitude too high, given there are better free solutions out there. Would be like me selling a search engine service for $99 a month when Google and Bing exist.
