Common mistakes

  • 1Assuming consent exemption extends to other Cloudflare services running on the same site
  • 2Not verifying that the analytics beacon does not inadvertently transmit page URLs containing personal data
  • 3Conflating Cloudflare Analytics with Cloudflare Bot Management or other services that do process personal data

Compliance considerations

Does not set cookies or collect personal identifiers. Uses a lightweight JavaScript beacon that sends anonymised page view data. Designed to comply with GDPR without requiring consent — Cloudflare states no personal data is collected. Verify that the implementation does not combine this data with other Cloudflare services that do process personal data.
