Google Analytics Opt-Out
About Google Analytics
Alyssa Howard Enterprises, LLC uses Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our platform. This helps us improve content, optimize performance, and better serve our audience.
Google Analytics collects information such as:
- Pages you visit
- Time spent on pages
- Device type and browser
- Approximate location (city/region based on IP address)
- Referral source (how you found our site)
Important: Google Analytics uses anonymized IP addresses and does not collect personally identifiable information.
GDPR Compliance (EU/EEA/UK Visitors)
For EU, EEA, and UK visitors, Google Analytics is disabled by default.
We comply with GDPR cookie consent requirements. Analytics tracking only activates after you explicitly opt-in to analytics cookies through our cookie consent banner.
How to Opt-Out
You can opt-out of Google Analytics tracking using one of the following methods:
Option 1: Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On
Install the official Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on to prevent Google Analytics tracking across all websites:
Compatible with Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera.
Option 2: Browser Cookie Settings
Block Google Analytics cookies through your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data > Block third-party cookies
- Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Enhanced Tracking Protection > Strict
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Prevent cross-site tracking
- Edge: Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Tracking prevention > Strict
Option 3: Platform Cookie Preferences (Coming Soon)
We are implementing a cookie preference center where you can toggle analytics tracking on/off directly on our platform. This feature will be available soon.
Option 4: Do Not Track Signal
Some browsers support a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. While Google Analytics does not honor DNT by default, we are exploring ways to respect DNT preferences in the future.
Impact of Opting Out
If you opt-out of Google Analytics:
- No Impact on Functionality: You can still access all content and features
- No Impact on Account: Your subscription and account remain active
- Limited Personalization: We won't be able to track your preferences to recommend content
- Help Us Improve: We appreciate analytics data to improve our platform, but we respect your privacy choice
Third-Party Analytics Tools
Currently, Google Analytics is the only third-party analytics tool we use. If we introduce additional analytics services in the future, we will:
- Update this page with opt-out instructions
- Update our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy
- Request consent (where required by law)
California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)
California residents may also opt-out of the "sharing" of personal information for analytics purposes. See our Do Not Sell My Personal Information page for details.
