Overview

StatRival is a public, anonymous global visitor analytics platform. We are committed to transparency about what data we collect, how we use it, and why.

Key principle: StatRival does not require accounts, logins, personal tracking links, or any form of user registration. All analytics data is aggregated and displayed publicly on a shared global dashboard.

Data We Collect

  • CountryDetermined via GeoIP lookup from your IP address.
  • BrowserDetected from the User-Agent header (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari).
  • Operating SystemDetected from the User-Agent header (e.g., Windows, macOS, Android).
  • Device TypeClassified as Desktop, Mobile, or Tablet.
  • ReferrerThe page that directed you to StatRival, if available.
  • Fingerprint HashA JavaScript-based hash for anti-cheat. Not a tracking identifier.
  • IP AddressUsed for rate limiting and VPN/proxy detection. Never displayed publicly.

Anti-Cheat System Disclosure

To maintain data integrity, StatRival employs the following anti-cheat measures:

  • Rate LimitingRepeated visits from the same IP within 30 minutes are blocked.
  • Bot DetectionAutomated crawlers, headless browsers, and known bots are rejected.
  • VPN/Proxy DetectionVisits from VPNs/proxies are marked as "unverified" and tracked separately.

No Unique Links or Accounts

StatRival does not generate unique tracking links, user accounts, or personal dashboards. Every visitor sees the same global dashboard. There is no way to create a personal analytics profile or track individual users across visits.

Google Ads Disclosure

StatRival may display advertisements through Google Ads. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. StatRival itself does not use cookies for tracking purposes.

Data Retention

Visit data is retained indefinitely to maintain accurate historical statistics. Since all data is anonymous and aggregated, there is no personal data to delete. IP addresses stored for rate limiting purposes are not publicly accessible.
