Analytics without Cookies

The archive.theglobalfund.org, files.theglobalfund.org, resources.theglobalfund.org, and impact.theglobalfund.org subsites do not use cookies for collecting analytics data. Instead, we use a randomly-seeded, privacy-enabled, time-limited hash and a limited set of visitor settings and attributes via the visitor config_id. As a result, we can only collect analytics on the number of views, downloads on pages, types of browsers, operating systems and resolutions without being able to track location or other personally identifiable information.
