• Piwik 1.12, New Features, API Improvements, Stability — The Last Piwik 1.X Release

  30 mai 2013, par Piwik team — Development

  We are very excited to announce the immediate availability of Piwik v1.12 !

  • Download Link
  • How to update Piwik ?
  • List of all tickets closed : Changelog

  Piwik v1.12 is a major new release with four big new features, seven smaller new features, several API improvements and all together 82 tickets fixed. This is also the last major 1.X release, which means after this release we will be working on releasing Piwik 2.0. This also means that you should upgrade to PHP 5.3 or higher if you haven’t already, since Piwik 2.0 will only support PHP 5.3 and above.

  Finally, this release contains two breaking changes to the API. If you use the Piwik API click here or scroll down to see if you’re affected.

  New Big Feature – Beta Release Channel

  

  For those of you who want to help test Piwik 2.0-beta releases as soon as they come up, we’ve made it easier to use our beta releases. Navigate to the Settings > General Settings page and click the The latest beta release radio button. You will then be able to upgrade to beta releases.

  This isn’t truly a major feature, but we think it’s just as important because it will allow us to create more beta releases and thus catch more bugs before we make a final release. This means more releases and more stability for you.

  New Big Feature – Segment Editor

  

  The Segment Editor is a long-awaited new feature that allows you to view, save and edit your segments.

  Piwik has supported segmentation (filtering visits and reports by arbitrary criteria, like browser family) for quite some time now, but it has never been possible to visually create and modify them. Nor could they be saved for later recall.

  Thanks to the eighty individuals and company who funded this feature, it is now possible to :

  • visually segment your visitors, instead of creating URLs.
  • save segments and easily switch between them, instead of remembering URLs.
  • get suggestions for segments that might be helpful to view.
  • learn more in the Segmentating Analytics reports user documentation..

  New Big Feature – Page Speed Reports

  You can now see how long it took your webserver to generate and send pages over HTTP through the new Avg. Generation Time metric.

  This metric can be viewed on both the Pages and Page Titles reports :

  

  And the average page generation time for all the pages in your website/webapp is displayed on the visitors overview :

  

  You can use this new information to benchmark your webapp and web server.

  New Big Feature – Device Detection Reports

  Piwik 1.12 also includes a new plugin that provides reports on the device types (tablet, desktop, smartphone, etc.), device brands (Apple, Google, Samsung, etc.) and device models (iPad, Nexus 7, etc.) your visitors use to access your website :

  

  The new plugin also enhances Operating system detections (detecting sub versions of Linux, Windows, and more).

  Note : This plugin is not enabled by default, but will be in Piwik 2.0. If you want to view these reports now, you can activate the plugin in the Installed Plugins admin page. Navigate to Visitors > Devices to see the new reports. You may also use the new (beta) ‘Device type’.

  The new plugin was developed with the support of Clearcode.cc our technology partner

  

  Other improvements

  Majestic SEO Metrics

  

  We’ve added two new SEO metrics to the SEO widget, both of which are calculated by MajesticSEO.com. These metrics will tell you the number of external backlinks (the number of links to your site from other sites) and the number of referrer domains (the number of domains that link to your site).

  We thank the team at Majestic for their support and hard work in bringing you these metrics to your Piwik dashboards !

  Real-time Visitor Count Dashboard Widget

  

  There is now a simple new widget you can use to see the number of visitors, visits and actions that occurred in the last couple minutes. We call it the Real Time Visitor Counter !

  New segment parameter : siteSearchKeyword.

  There is now a new segment parameter you can use to segment your visits : siteSearchKeyword. This parameter will let you select visits that had site searches with a specific keyword.

  Ignore URL letter case when importing log files.

  We’ve added a new option to the log import script, –force-lowercase-path. When used, the importer will change URL paths to lowercase before tracking them. This way http://domain.com/MY/BLOG will be treated the same as http://domain.com/my/blog.

  Updated ISP Names

  

  We’ve also modified the Providers report so prettier and more up-to-date names of ISPs are displayed.

  Customize the background/text/axis color of graphs.

  

  It is now possible to change the background color, text color and/or axis color of the graph images generated by the ImageGraph plugin. To access this functionality, use the following URL query parameters when generating an image :

  • backgroundColor
  • textColor
  • axisColor

  For example :

  http://demo.piwik.org/index.php?module=API&method=ImageGraph.get&idSite=7&apiModule=UserSettings&apiAction=getBrowser&token_auth=anonymous&period=day&date=2013-03-21,2013-04-19&language=en&width=779&height=150&fontSize=9&showMetricTitle=0&aliasedGraph=1&legendAppendMetric=0&backgroundColor=efefef&gridColor=dcdcdc&colors=cb2026

  Send your users to a custom URL after they logout.

  If you manage a Piwik installation with many users and you want to send them to a custom page or website after they log out of Piwik, you can now specify the URL to redirect users after they log out.

  API Changes and Improvements

  BREAKING CHANGE – renamed segment parameters.

  The following segment parameters have been renamed :

  • continent renamed to : continentCode
  • browserName renamed to : browserCode
  • operatingSystem renamed to : operatingSystemCode
  • lat renamed to : latitude
  • long renamed to : longitude
  • region renamed to : regionCode
  • country renamed to : countryCode
  • continent renamed to : continentCode

  If you use one of the old segment parameter names, Piwik will throw an exception, so you should notice when you’re using an old name.

  BREAKING CHANGE – changes to the input & output of the Live.getLastVisitsDetails method.

  The following changes were made to the Live.getLastVisitsDetails API method :

  • The method no longer uses the maxIdVisit query parameter. It has been replaced by the filter_offset parameter.
  • Site search keywords are now displayed in a <siteSearchKeyword> element. They were formerly in <pageTitle> elements.
  • Custom variables with page scope now have ‘Page’ in their element names when displayed. For example, <customVariablePageName1>, <customVariablePageName2>, etc.

  Filter results of MultiSites.getAll by website name.

  It is now possible to filter the results of MultiSites.getAll by website name. To do this, set the pattern query parameter to the desired regex pattern.

  Get suggested values to use for a segment parameter.

  The new API method API.getSuggestedValuesForSegment can now be used to get suggested values for a segment parameter. This method will return a list of the most seen values (in the last 60 days) for a certain segment parameter. So for browserCode, this would return the codes for the browsers most visitors used in the last 60 days.

  Use extra tracking query parameters with the JS tracker (such as ‘lat’ & ‘long’).

  We’ve added a new method to the JavaScript tracker named appendToTrackingUrl. You can use this method to add extra query parameters to a tracking request, like so :

  _paq.push(['appendToTrackingUrl', 'lat=X&long=Y']);

  What we’re working on

  As we said above, Piwik v1.12 is the last in the 1.X series of releases. This means we are now officially working on Piwik 2.0.

  Piwik 2.0 will be a big release, to be sure, but it’s going to bring you more than just a couple new features and a bag of bug fixes. For Piwik 2.0 we will be revisiting the user needs and the ideals that originally prompted us to create Piwik in order to build our vision of the future of web analytics.

  Piwik 2.0 won’t just be a bigger, better web app, but a new platform for observing and analyzing the things that matter to you.

• How to not process any personal data with Matomo and what it means for you

  22 avril 2018, par InnoCraft

  Disclaimer : this blog post has been written by digital analysts, not lawyers. The purpose of this article is to explain how to not process any personal data with Matomo in order to avoid going through the GDPR compliance process with Matomo analytics. This work comes from our interpretation of different sources : the official GDPR text and the UK privacy commission : ICO resources. It cannot be considered as a professional legal advice. So as GDPR, this information is subject to change. GDPR may be also known as RGPD in French, Spanish, Portuguese, Datenschutz-Grundverordnung, DS-GVO in German, Algemene verordening gegevensbescherming in Dutch, Regolamento generale sulla protezione dei dati in Italian.

  Are you looking for a way to not process any personal data with Matomo ? If the answer is yes, you are at the right place. From our understanding, if you are not processing personal data, then you shouldn’t be concerned about GDPR. Our inspiration came from this official reference :

  “The principles of data protection should therefore not apply to anonymous information, namely information which does not relate to an identified or identifiable natural person or to personal data rendered anonymous in such a manner that the data subject is not or no longer identifiable. This Regulation does not therefore concern the processing of such anonymous information, including for statistical or research purposes.“

  In this blog post we are going to see how you can configure Matomo in order to not process any personal data and what the consequences are.

  Which data is considered as personal according to GDPR ?

  From : eur-lex.europa.eu

  (1) “‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’) ; an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person ;”

  (30) “Natural persons may be associated with online identifiers provided by their devices, applications, tools and protocols, such as internet protocol addresses, cookie identifiers or other identifiers such as radio frequency identification tags. This may leave traces which, in particular when combined with unique identifiers and other information received by the servers, may be used to create profiles of the natural persons and identify them.”

  So according to your Matomo configuration, it may leave some traces within the following data :

  1. IP addresses
  2. Cookies identifiers
  3. Page URL or page titles
  4. User ID and Custom “personal” data
  5. Ecommerce order IDs
  6. Location
  7. Heatmaps & Session Recordings

  Let’s see each of them in more detail.

  1. IP addresses

  IP addresses can indirectly identify an individual. It can also give a good approximation of an individual’s location.

  IP addresses are therefore considered as personal data which means you need to anonymize them. To do so, a feature is available within Matomo, where you can anonymize the IP. We recommend you to anonymize at least the last two bytes :

  

  See our configuration guide for more information

  What are the consequences of using this feature ?

  When applying IP anonymization on two bytes, you will no longer be able to see the full IP in the UI.

  Moreover, there is a small chance that 2 different visitors with the same device and software configuration will be identified as the same visitor if the anonymised IP address is the same for both.

  2. Cookies

  It is not clear for us yet if all cookies are considered equal under GDPR. At this stage it is too early to make a definite decision.

  Did you know ? Matomo lets you optionally disable the creation of cookies by adding an extra line of code to your tracking code see below.

  

  See our configuration guide for more information

  What are the consequences of using this feature ?

  Matomo is using a few first party cookies, and the following cookies may hold personal data :

  • _pk_id : contains a visitor id used to identify unique visitors
  • _pk_ref : to identify from where they came from

  If Matomo cannot set cookies, it will use a technique called Fingerprint. It is based on several metadata such as the operating system, browser, browser plugins, IP address, browser language ; just to name a few to identify a unique visitor. As this feature is less accurate than the one using cookies, the number of visitors and visits will be affected.

  3. Page URLs and page titles

  URLs are not mentioned within the official GDPR text. However, we know that according to the different CMS you use, some of them may have URLs including personal identifiers.

  For example :

  

  As a result, you need to find a way to anonymize this data.

  There are several ways you can perform this action according to your website. If your website is adding the personal data through query parameters, you can define a rule to exclude them from Matomo.

  If the personal data are not included within query parameters, you can use the “setCustomURL” feature and write your code as follow :

  

  See our developer documentation for more information

  If you are also processing personal data within the title tag, you can use the following function : “setDocumentTitle”.

  What are the consequences of using this feature ?

  By anonymizing the URLs containing personal data, some of your  URLs will be grouped together.

  4. User ID and custom personal data

  User ID is a feature (a tracking code needs to be added) which allows you to identify the same user across different devices.

  A User ID needs a corresponding database in order to link a user across different devices, it can be an email, a username, a name, a random number… All those data are either direct or non direct online identifiers and are therefore under the scope of GDPR.

  It will be the same situation if you are using custom variables and/or custom dimensions in order to push personal data to the system.

  To continue using the User ID feature but not recording personal data, you can consider using a hash function which will anonymize/convert your actual User ID into something like “3jrj3j34434834urj33j3”.

  Alternatively, you can enable the feature “Anonymise User IDs”. This feature will be available starting in Matomo 3.5.0 :

  

  What are the consequences of using this feature ?

  Under GDPR, User ID is personal data. Anonymizing the User ID using a hash function or our built-in functionality make the User Id pseudo-anonymous, which means it can’t be easily identified to a specific user. As a result, you will still get accurate visits and unique visitors metrics, and the Visitor Profile, but without tracking the original User ID which is personal data.

  5. Ecommerce order IDs

  Order IDs are the reference number assigned to the products/services bought by your customers. As this information can be crossed with your internal database, it is considered as an online identifier and is therefore under the scope of GDPR. As for User ID, you can anonymize order IDs using our built-in functionality to Anonymise Order IDs (see section 4. about User Id).

  What are the consequences of anonymizing order ID ?

  It really depends on your former use of order IDs. If you were not using them in the past then you should not see any difference.

  6. Location

  Based on the IP address of a visitor, Matomo can detect the visitors location. Location data is problematic for privacy as this technology has become quite accurate and can detect not only the city a visitor is from, but sometimes an even more precise position of a visitor.

  

  In order to not leave any accurate traces, we strongly recommend you to enable the IP anonymization feature. Next, you need to enable the setting “Also use the anonymized IP address when enriching visits”. You find this setting directly below the IP anonymization. This is important as otherwise the full IP address will be used to geolocate a visitor.

  

  What are the consequences of anonymizing location data ?

  The more bytes you anonymize from the IP, the more anonymized your location will be. When you remove two bytes as suggested, the city and region location reports will not be as accurate. In some cases even the country may not be detected correctly anymore.

  7. Heatmaps & Session Recordings

  Heatmaps & Session Recording is a premium feature in Matomo allowing you to see where users click, hover, type and scroll. With session recordings you can then replay their actions in a video.

  Heatmaps & Session Recordings are under the scope of GDPR as they can disclose in some specific cases (for example : filling a contact form) personal data :

  

  To avoid this, Matomo will anonymize all keystrokes which a user enters into a form field unless you specifically whitelist a field. Many fields that could contain personal data, such as a credit card, phone number, email address, password, social security number, and more are always anonymized and not recorded.

  See our configuration guide for more information

  Note that a page may still show personal information within the page as part of regular content (not a form element). For example an address, or the profile page of a forum user. We have added a feature which allows you to set an HTML attribute “data-matomo-mask” to anonymize any personal content shown in the UI.

  What are the consequences of using this feature ?

  Mainly, you will not be able to see in plain text what people are entering into your forms.

  What should you do with past data ?

  Once more, we have to say that we are not lawyers. So do not take our answers as legal advice. From : ec.europa.eu/newsroom/article29/document.cfm ?doc_id=50053

  “For example, as the GDPR requires that a controller must be able to demonstrate that valid consent was obtained, all presumed consents of which no references are kept will automatically be below the consent standard of the GDPR and will need to be renewed.”

  Our interpretation is that, if you were previously relying on consent, unless you can demonstrate that valid consent was obtained, you need to get the consent back (which is almost impossible) or you need to anonymize or remove that data.

  To anonymize previously tracked data, we are actively working on a feature to do just that directly within Matomo. Alternatively, you may also set up the deletion of logs after a certain amount of time.

  We really hope you enjoyed reading this article. GDPR is still on the go and we are pretty sure you have a lot of questions about it. You probably would like to share our vision about it. So do not hesitate to ask us through our contact form to see how we are interpreting GDPR at Matomo and InnoCraft.
