Also called: Piwik, Matomo analytics

[Open-source](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/open-source) [web analytics](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/web-analytics) software that a site can host itself, so visitor data stays with the site owner.

**For example:** A health startup uses [self-hosted](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/managed-service) Matomo so visitor data never goes to an outside [analytics](https://ecosystem.samcarlton.com/web-analytics) company.
