What Cloudflare Web Analytics is like
Cloudflare Web Analytics is a free, privacy-first analytics service from Cloudflare, the US network and security company. You add a small JavaScript snippet to your pages, or turn it on in one click for sites proxied through Cloudflare or hosted on Cloudflare Pages. It costs nothing, and Cloudflare sets no limit based on traffic.
The script sets no cookies and no localStorage, and Cloudflare says it does not fingerprint visitors. IP addresses are discarded at the nearest data centre. Instead of unique visitors, it counts visits: page views that arrive from another site or a direct link. The dashboard shows page views, visits, top pages, referrers, countries, devices, browsers and operating systems, plus Core Web Vitals and page load times.
The feature set is basic. There are no custom events, goals or UTM reports, and the beacon is blocked by common ad blockers. Raw data is kept unsampled for 7 days and then aggregated to about 10%, with six months of history available. An account can track 10 sites with the snippet alone; sites proxied through Cloudflare have no limit.

- Top pages, referrers and countries
- Device, browser and OS reports
