# What is Pieowl?

URL: https://pieowl.com/docs





Pieowl is web and product analytics in one place. You get the simple traffic view you expect from a privacy-friendly tool, plus funnels, retention, cohorts, session replay and revenue. When you want an answer, ask Claude, Cursor or another AI assistant: it reads your data through the Pieowl MCP server.

Built for privacy [#built-for-privacy]

* **No cookies**: The tracker never sets a cookie and stores nothing on your visitors' devices, so in many cases you don't need a consent banner for analytics. [When you still do](/docs/consent-and-cookie-banners)
* **No stored IP addresses**: The IP is used for the location lookup and a daily-rotating visitor hash, then dropped
* **EU hosting**: Your data is stored in the EU
