Do I need to disclose Clicky in my privacy policy?

Yes. Because Clicky collects personal data including IP addresses and visitor information, you are required to disclose its use in your privacy policy under GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations. You must inform visitors that their data is processed through this analytics service and explain the purposes of collection.

What specific data does Clicky collect about visitors?

Clicky collects page views, visitor information, IP addresses, and referral data. This allows the service to track which pages users visit, where traffic originates, and basic visitor characteristics. The collected data enables real-time analytics dashboards showing visitor activity on your website.

Does Clicky require a cookie consent banner?

Clicky does not use cookies for tracking. However, you may still be required to obtain consent for analytics tracking depending on your jurisdiction and how you configure the service. Review your local privacy laws and consider consulting legal counsel to determine if consent is necessary for IP address and visitor data collection.

Who processes my Clicky data and where is it stored?

Clicky is operated by Roxr Software Ltd, a data processor located in the United States. When you use Clicky, visitor data is transferred to and processed in the United States. You should ensure appropriate data transfer mechanisms (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place if you operate in the EU or other regions with strict data localization requirements.

Page views

Visitor info

When does Clicky trigger privacy obligations?

Installation starts IP collection immediately

Clicky begins collecting visitor IP addresses and page-view data the moment its tracking code fires on your site. Unlike consent-first tools, Clicky does not pause data collection pending user opt-in—it collects first. This triggers obligations under GDPR Article 6 (lawful basis requirement) and ePrivacy Directive Article 5(3) (the 'cookie law'), which require prior consent *before* non-essential tracking begins.

Threshold and jurisdiction triggers

–GDPR applies if your site has any EU visitors and Clicky processes their IP addresses (classified as personal data under GDPR recital 30). No minimum traffic threshold.
