Does Wayfold use cookies?
No. The analytics tracker sets no cookies and creates no persistent visitor profile. An explicit opt-out preference can be stored locally; it is not an analytics identifier. Optional advertising integrations are a separate permission-controlled feature.
Can I remove my consent banner?
Not automatically. Wayfold does not display its own consent banner. Whether your whole website needs a banner depends on its other tools, configuration and applicable requirements. A Wayfold installation is not a blanket compliance guarantee.
Can I migrate from Google Analytics?
Yes. You can run Wayfold alongside your current analytics during evaluation and import supported daily GA4 aggregates through a Google connection or CSV. Imported history remains labelled and separate from native Wayfold data. Raw user profiles and individual historical sessions are not imported.
Does Wayfold record the screen?
No. Journeys show anonymous event sequences. Heatmaps are aggregated click and scroll distributions, not screen recordings or stored visitor screenshots.
Where is the data hosted?
The application is hosted at Hetzner in Germany. The production database is hosted in Zurich, Switzerland. The operator is minddraft AG. Consult the service-provider and data-processing pages for the current contractual details.
Does AI traffic prove that an assistant recommends us?
No. An AI referral or crawler request is a traffic signal, not proof of a recommendation, citation or ranking. Wayfold does not guarantee placement in search engines or generated answers.
