Privacy-First Web Analytics for Conversions | HitKeep

# HitKeep > HitKeep is privacy-first web analytics for managed cloud and self-hosted deployments. You can self-host it as a single Go binary with zero external service dependencies, or run it in HitKeep Cloud in EU or US regions. Current Linux release binaries are about 100 MB. Data lives in DuckDB and can be exported in open formats such as JSON, CSV, Parquet, NDJSON, and XLSX where the product surface supports them. Linux release binaries target a modern glibc baseline. HitKeep is for DevOps engineers, developers, and privacy-conscious site owners who want analytics ownership without running PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, ClickHouse, or a separate queue. The tracking snippet (`hk.js`) is cookie-less by default, respects Do Not Track when enabled, can automatically emit `outbound_click`, `file_download`, and `form_submit` events, stores derived city/provider/ASN metadata without storing raw visitor IP addresses, and keeps Web Vitals collection in an opt-in same-origin split bundle. The first-party WordPress plugin installs the same tracker and automatic-event defaults without adding a separate analytics vendor. Current stable release: HitKeep 2.9.0, published on July 4, 2026. It adds the experimental Ask AI dashboard assistant, a new multi-site overview, ECharts-based analytics charts, expanded report range presets, hosted cloud setup polish, and a round of dashboard fixes. HitKeep 2.8.1 fixed password settings validation, the breadcrumbs scrollbar, Google Search Console timezone test coverage, Portuguese translations, and missing QR code labels.
