Cookieless analytics, on by default.
@getfluxly/browser 0.7.0, @getfluxly/next 0.3.0
GetFluxly now tracks anonymous visitors without setting a single cookie or writing anything to the browser. Instead of planting an id on the device, our server derives a short-lived hashed id from the incoming request, salted with a secret that rotates and is deleted every day, so the id can group one visit but cannot follow anyone from one day to the next.
A real, persistent identity begins only when a visitor signs up, logs in, or submits a form. Until then there is nothing stored on their device and nothing to link across sites. We turned this on first for our own marketing site and docs: the old consent banner is gone, replaced by a one-line notice that stores nothing.
The full breakdown, including the honest tradeoffs, lives on the cookieless analytics page.
- No cookies, no localStorage, and no fingerprinting for anonymous traffic.
- A daily-rotating server-side salt, so anonymous ids cannot be linked across days.
- Identity starts the moment someone signs up or logs in, never before.
- Sessions, funnels, referrers, and campaign attribution still work in full.
