Other Web analytics vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at GoatCounter. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 32 that differ from GoatCounter on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
GoatCounter has 10 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Status page with history, Public pricing, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, No third-party tracking before consent, security.txt (RFC 9116), Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “Found there, not found at GoatCounter” is the one that closes them.
