No Simple Analytics

Explanation

By enabling this setting, you won't appear in the daily active user counts. We respect your choice of not sending your user count.

By default, the extension sends a small message once every day you've used it to Simple Analytics. Simple Analytics respects your DO NOT TRACK browser setting so by having this enabled in your browser, this setting is implicitly enabled.

Please read about it in our Privacy Policy file.

The Analytics Data is always available at this link.

Technicalities

Location

The function which sends the ping message is in content.js and is called checkInsertAnalytics.

Implementation

The function checks the setting and the last time a ping was sent. If the setting is enabled or the ping was already sent for the current day, it halts; otherwise, it adds both https://queue.simpleanalyticscdn.com and https://simpleanalyticscdn.com to the current page "Content-Security-Policy" (if present; or it creates a new one) then sends the ping by retrieving a GIF.

The path is always set to the extension version (+ if the user is a new user).
