We count visits with Umami, which we run on our own server in Sweden. It sets no cookies and stores no IP address. We see which page was viewed and when, which page the visitor came from, approximate country, browser, operating system and screen size. The part of the address after the question mark, which can contain amounts or link codes, is not sent. To count the same visitor once, a code is derived from the IP address and browser; it changes every month and cannot be traced back to you. We do this to understand how the site is used, which is our legitimate interest. Visit statistics are kept for 25 months.

If you are signed in, you can turn off visit counting in your settings under Privacy.
