WEBSITE ANALYTICS WITHOUT COMPROMISE

New CNIL finds Google Analytics in breach of GDPR

For the longest time, website analytics software was seriously bad. It was hard
to understand, time-consuming to use, and worse, it exploited visitor data for
big tech to profit.

Fathom is a Google Analytics alternative that doesn’t compromise visitor privacy
for data. We revolutionized website analytics by making them easy to use and
respectful of privacy laws (like GDPR and more).

required   GDPR Compliant  



EUROPEAN ANALYTICS

Our entire company is built on putting digital privacy first. Your EU traffic is
automatically routed through European-owned infrastructure, and our Canadian
company has GDPR adequacy ruling. Plus, we're GDPR, CCPA, ePrivacy, PECR (and
more) compliant.




SEE ALL YOUR VISITORS (NOT JUST HALF)

Millions of people use browser plugins to block scripts. That's why we pioneered
the method for by-passing ad blockers, so you get the full picture of who's
visiting your site without invading anyone's privacy.




OUR SCRIPT IS FAST

Our embed code loads faster than Google Analytics, meaning we're better for your
SEO than they are. The script loads from all over the world, from the place
closest to the person visiting your site.




WE SELL SOFTWARE, NOT DATA

This is why we created anonymous pageview tracking that doesn't collect or store
personal data (we have no use for it). Because of this, Fathom doesn't require
annoying cookie notices.

FATHOM IS TRUSTED BY THOUSANDS OF BUSINESSES TO POWER THEIR PRIVACY-FIRST
WEBSITE ANALYTICS

What kind of companies use Fathom? Fortune 100s, pioneers of the Open Web,
Premier League football clubs, banks, and governments around the world all use
our software to provide them with a privacy-focused and easy-to-use alternative
to Google Analytics. Not to mention loads of small and mighty companies are
Fathom customers as well.

FATHOM IS USED BY COMPANIES WHO CARE ABOUT YOUR PRIVACY



Wow, what a breath of fresh air. I love how simple Fathom is, and it really
gives you all the traffic metrics you could need.

Joel Gascoigne, CEO of Buffer

I switched to Fathom because it’s an ethical analytics tool that I trust. It
gives me everything I want to know about my site's performance.

Charli Marie, Creative director of ConvertKit

I value my time and my website visitors right to privacy. That’s why I’ve
switched to Fathom Analytics.

Marshall Shorts, founder of Artfluential

Fathom simplifies the task of analyzing site performance while simultaneously
respecting my visitors' privacy. Also, it’s a joy to use.

Jon Henshaw, founder of Coywolf

Today, so many big tech corps are abusing our privacy. This is why I use Fathom.
They’re an analytics company I can trust.

Justin Jackson, Cofounder of Transistor

Privacy-protections aside, I love the beautifully simple interface. Fathom is
now part of my default stack.

Derrick Reimer, founder of SavvyCal

I’m deeply opposed to cookie banners. Using Fathom means I don't have to
compromise my morals.

Ben Orenstein, cofounder of Tuple

I consider Fathom a "must have" tool if you want to understand what's happening
with your website traffic—it's simple, speedy, and accurate.

Ruben Gamez, founder Docsketch & Bidsketch

Not only is their product and support awesome, but they've shown how much they
actually care about their privacy-focused mission.

Miguel Piedrafita, founder of Sitesauce

After switching to Fathom for my web properties, I find I'm more attentive to my
sites because I'm always aware of how many people are on them and which pages
are most popular.

Caleb Porzio, creator of Alpine.js

FATHOM INTEGRATES EASILY WITH ALL CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND DEVELOPER
FRAMEWORKS



We built Fathom from the very start to be privacy-focused and easy to use. Our
business model is honest yet unusual for the startup scene: we charge a fair
price for our software (instead of giving it away for free, then selling your
data to generate revenue).

Our customers come first because they’re our only investors—we don’t have
venture capital funding, bank loans, or other shareholders we answer to.
Instead, we’re happily independent and bootstrapped.

We grow sustainability when our customers tell their friends about Fathom,
agencies start using us for all their client websites, or when reviewers try
several analytics products and end up choosing us. This is the way we like it.

By supporting a company like ours, you are taking a step towards a shared vision
of the internet that aligns with ours: away from the watchful eyes of big tech,
based on trust and privacy, and all without compromising reliability, speed or
quality of support.

Fathom began as an idea that a tech company could be run and grow without
compromising our values. Fathom started as an analytics product that could be
privacy-focused and simple without compromising the value of its data.

We’re proud of how we run our business, sell our product and serve our
customers. And of course, we hope you’ll join us.

Paul & Jack,
co-founders of Fathom

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I use the same plan for multiple websites? Yes, you can add up to 50
sites/dashboards under a single plan, and they all share your monthly page
views. If you need more than 50 sites, that's not a problem, contact us for
pricing. How long do you store my analytics data? Forever. Meaning, as long as
you are a customer, you can access your data all the way back to when you signed
up for an account. 7 days, or even 30 days, doesn't give you a clear enough
picture of if your website is trending up or down, which is why we give you data
retention forever. Why is Fathom better than European-only providers? As per the
GDPR (Schrems II ruling), EU visitor data has to be processed in the EU on
servers provided by an EU hosting provider or a hosting provider with an
adequacy ruling. But, that doesn’t mean visitor data from everywhere else should
be processed in the EU, as that slows everything down. That’s why we
intelligently route visitor data to multiple locations across the world, not
just the EU. What happens if I go over my page view limit? We never charge for
occasional traffic spikes, nor do we ever shut your account off if you reach
your plan limit early. Instead, if you go over your plan two months in a row or
within the first month of joining Fathom, we let you know we’re upgrading your
account. From there, you can decide to stay or cancel your account (no hard
feelings either way). You can even export your data if you leave. Why isn’t
Fathom free like Google Analytics? If you aren't paying for a product, you are
the product. That's why Google Analytics is free, because they make enough money
off the personal data their customers give them by using their analytics
service. We charge a small and sustainable fee for Fathom because our business
model is selling software, not data (these are very different business models).
Our customers gladly pay for our service because they know their data is safe
with us and their visitors' privacy is protected. As a profitable business,
we're in this for the long haul. Why does digital privacy even matter? You may
think that digital privacy doesn’t matter because you have nothing to hide. And
that may be true (to some extent), but your data shouldn’t be monetized and sold
by giant tech companies who are taking your tastes and preferences and selling
them to advertisers (including companies like Cambridge Analytica). These
companies are following you around the internet, keeping track of what you do,
and then using that knowledge to sell you things or manipulate your thoughts. By
using Fathom, you are making your website a black hole to big tech, meaning they
cannot track any data about individuals who visit your website. Want to learn
