Privacy friendly
Collection of usage data is opt in, users that do not actively opt in will never leave a trace.
After opt in, Offen collects the minimal amount of data needed to generate meaningful statistics for operators.
No IPs, User-Agent strings or similar are being collected or even looked at.
Secure
Data in Offen is encrypted End-To-End.
Clients encrypt usage data before it leaves the browser and there is no way for the server storing this data to decrypt it.
Attackers have no means to compromise an instance, accidental data leaks cannot expose user data.
Self hosted and lightweight
You can run Offen on-premises, or in any other deployment scenario that fits your need.
All you need to do is download a single binary file or pull a Docker image, and run it on your server.
Offen will automatically install and renew SSL certificates for you if you want it to.
If you do not want to deploy a dedicated database, you can use SQLite to store data directly on the server.
Transparent and fair
Offen treats the user as a party of equal importance in the collection of usage data.
Users have access to the same set of tools for analyzing their own data and they can delete their data at any time.
Offen is currently available in English, German and French.
Our consent banner and the Auditorium for operators as well as users can be displayed in the respective locale.
Support fair web analytics by contributing Spanish, Portuguese and other language versions. Request an invite.
The Offen consent banner is customizable in color, shape and basic font specifications to match your design. Learn more.
Give Offen a test drive right now. Open your terminal and type:
curl https://demo.offen.dev | bash
This creates an ephemeral one-off installation that is populated with random data and is running on http://localhost:9876
.
There, you can log in using the account demo@offen.dev
and password demo

This repository contains all source code needed to work on Offen, both on the server as well as on the client.
The development setup requires docker
and docker-compose
to be installed.
After cloning the repository
$ git clone git@github.com:offen/offen.git
you can build the containers and install dependencies using:
$ make setup
Next seed the database for the server
application:
$ make bootstrap
You can test your setup by starting the application:
$ make up
which should enable you to access http://localhost:8080/auditorium/ and use the Auditorium
Run the tests for all subapplications using
$ make test
Detailed instructions on how to get started with development can be found at our dedicated docs site.
The documentation site at https://docs.offen.dev is also part of this repository. To run this site locally, you can:
make setup-docs
make docs
This will serve the documentation site on https://localhost:4000.
We are happy to work with NLnet Foundation, which actively supports our efforts as part of its Next Generation Internet initiative.
