Basic anonymous information about the website visitor will be recorded.

Spyware.

This is traffic analyze tool (web site statistics service).

Because:

Basic anonymous information about the website visitor will be recorded.

Anything that collects "basic information" about my visitors is spyware.

All web site statistics systems collect this information. Even cPanel Webalizer.

free stats are fine if you don't care about someone else mining your data and learning all about your websites. If you don't currently have acceptable tracking with your hosting company find a new one - hosting is practically free these days and lots of places have good stats for you. It's your data - why share it with some free stats company?

How about this for tracking? It is useful.

Is this the same type of program?

Thanks,
