European web analytics tools
All providers listed here are EU-based and operate under GDPR. Most are cookieless by design, so visitors usually do not see a consent banner just for analytics.
Self-hostable options (Plausible, Aptabase, Counter.dev) give you full control of the data on your own infrastructure.
