Your Data Stays Your Data

Self-hosted analytics means: no tracking by Google, no data transfers to the US, no sharing with third parties. Matomo, Umami, Plausible or Grafana run as managed containers on LAY7 cloud – on German infrastructure, under your control.

0 Third Parties

Your analytics data never leaves the German server location. No Google, no US Cloud Act, no data sharing. Complete data sovereignty for you and your users.

GDPR Without Consent Banner

When self-hosted, Matomo and Plausible can be operated without a consent banner. No cookies, no personal data shared with third parties. GDPR compliant while still providing complete visitor statistics.

Matomo, Umami, Plausible & Grafana

Any analytics tool available as a Docker image: Matomo for comprehensive web analytics, Umami for minimalist statistics, Plausible for privacy-first analytics, Grafana for dashboards and visualizations.

Automatic Updates via Docker

Taking Privacy Seriously

Data protection authorities classify Google Analytics as problematic. Self-hosted analytics on German infrastructure is the clean solution – legally secure, transparent and without dependency on US corporations.

Deploy your analytics tool (e.g. Matomo) on LAY7 cloud and add the tracking code to your website. Matomo also offers a Google Analytics Importer that lets you transfer historical data. The switch takes just a few minutes.
Yes. Use a custom Docker image based on the official Matomo image and install any plugins you need. With a persistent volume, your plugin data is preserved even through container restarts.
That depends on your visitor numbers. For most websites, 5 GB of database storage and 5 GB of volume are sufficient. For high traffic volumes, simply scale storage and database with a click in the dashboard – no migration required.
