We use analytics and performance cookies to collect information on your behalf about how visitors interact with your site. Storing these cookies is how we populate the data you find in Squarespace analytics, such as traffic sourcesunique visitors, and cart abandonment.

Disable analytics and performance cookies

To stop Squarespace from placing these cookies on visitors’ browsers, you can disable analytics and performance cookies at any time:

1.     In the Home menu, click Settings, and then click Cookies & visitor data.

2.     Switch the Disable Squarespace analytics cookies toggle on. 

3.     To also display a cookie banner, switch the Cookie banner toggle on. To keep cookies disabled, under Disable Squarespace analytics cookies, check Disable analytics tracking even when users accept cookies.

4.    Click Save.

You can also disable collecting these cookies from visitors until they accept your cookie policy in a cookie banner.

Disabling Squarespace analytics and performance cookies doesn’t disable cookies placed by third-party services connected to your site, such as Facebook Pixel or Google Analytics.

How disabling cookies changes what appears in analytics

After you disable analytics cookies, some data in Squarespace analytics won’t be a complete or accurate representation of visitor behavior.

Each pageview event counts like it’s from a new visitor each time. As a result, visits and unique visitors might appear much higher than normal. Each pageview counts as its own visit, when in reality, one visitor might view multiple pages. So, it might look like you have more visitors than you actually have in panels like:

·       Traffic

·       Sales

Another effect of disabling cookies is that clicks, order conversion rates, and referrer attributions in panels like Traffic sources and Form & button conversions won’t be accurate. This is because disabling cookies prevents analytics from connecting consecutive visitor events in the same session.

Additionally, if someone visited your site before you disabled cookies and returns when cookies are disabled, that person counts as a new visitor, because we’ll ignore those cookies and attempt to remove them to follow your decision.
