Our mission
Web analytics has developed a problem in recent years: tools collect everything, often more than necessary, transfer data into foreign jurisdictions and force websites into cookie banners nobody wants. The result: worse user experience, legal risk, data loss through banner rejection and growing user distrust of the web.
We believe there is a better way – one that delivers accurate statistics without sacrificing privacy. Logiwolf is our answer: a web analytics tool that focuses on the essentials, processes anonymous data only, hosts in Switzerland and is not funded by advertising or data sales. We build for website owners, marketers and agencies who want to understand their visitors without spying on them.
We are guided by one principle: data that is never collected can never be abused.
Why Switzerland
Switzerland has one of the strongest data protection laws in the world. The revised Federal Act on Data Protection (revFADP), in force since September 2023, is largely compatible with the EU GDPR and in places even stricter. Swiss hosting also means, concretely:
- No US CLOUD Act access: US authorities have no legal lever to access data stored in Switzerland
- No EU arbitration: privacy matters are heard before Swiss courts
- Political stability: Switzerland has been one of the most politically stable countries in the world for decades
- A strict tradition of confidentiality: Swiss legal culture affords extraordinary protection to confidentiality
For us, Switzerland is not just a location but a stance. All our servers are in Swiss data centres in Zurich and Geneva – redundant, geo-separated, with no data flows abroad.
Our values
Transparency. We openly publish what we collect, how we process it and how long we keep it. No hidden data flows, no undocumented third parties, no surprise trackers. Our privacy policy is a complete list, not a legal game of hide-and-seek.
Simplicity. Web analytics should deliver answers, not confusion. We design Logiwolf so that someone with no training is productive in 5 minutes. No 47-step onboarding wizards, no PhD-level docs, no thicket of tutorial videos. What you need to know, you learn at first login.
Independence. We are bootstrapped, owned by no corporation, and we sell no data. Our business model is simple: you pay for software, we deliver it. We have no advertisers, no affiliate programmes, no hidden incentives. What's good for your privacy is good for us.
Longevity. We build Logiwolf for the next 10 years, not the next funding round. That's why the Enterprise plan offers 10 years of data retention – we expect to still be here to deliver it.
How we build our software
Logiwolf runs on lean infrastructure in Swiss data centres. We use open source components wherever possible, keep our code footprint small and invest disproportionately in performance: our tracking pixel is just 1 KB compressed (2.2 KB uncompressed), our dashboards load in under a second, and we continuously measure Core Web Vitals ourselves.
We ship updates weekly, actively listen to customer feedback and prioritise stability over feature leaps. We deliberately forgo features that would sell but would break our privacy promise – even if that makes us look smaller next to competitors.
