[Block Avizi until consent](https://app.flowconsent.com/auth/sign-up?utm_source=flowconsent.com\&utm_medium=referral\&utm_campaign=analytics) · [Scan my site](https://www.flowconsent.com/en/scan) At a glance - Category [Analytics](https://www.flowconsent.com/en/services/analytics) - Consent Analytics - Prior consent Required - Documented cookies 3 - Third-party domains 3 - Servers European Union (primary) Overview ## What does Avizi do? ## **What is Avizi** Avizi is a web analytics platform aimed at digital marketers who need traffic, conversion, and behaviour insights. The service runs a lightweight JavaScript snippet that fires page views, custom events, and conversion goals back to the Avizi servers. Persistent identifiers stored in cookies make it possible to recognise returning visitors and stitch sessions across pages. ## **Cookies and data collected** Avizi sets first party cookies such as \_avz\_vis (visitor identifier, twelve months) and \_avz\_sess (session identifier, thirty minutes). It collects IP address (truncated where possible), user agent, referrer, viewed pages, and custom event parameters. Because these cookies identify a specific browser, they fall under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive and require consent. ## **Legal basis under the GDPR** The default legal basis is consent under Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR combined with Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Some EU regulators (CNIL, DPC Ireland) accept a strict analytics exemption when the tool collects no identifiers reusable across sites and limits retention. Confirm with Avizi whether their EU mode meets the CNIL exemption criteria. ## **International data transfers** Avizi hosts data in EU data centres. If your contract references sub processors outside the EEA (CDN, monitoring), document them and ensure SCCs are in place. Inform users of any international transfer. ## **Consent management** Block the Avizi tag until your CMP captures consent for the analytics category. Avizi supports a privacy mode that anonymises IPs and disables cross domain identifiers; activate it as a fallback when consent is denied to obtain aggregate, non identifying data without consent. ## **Practical compliance steps** Sign a DPA with Avizi, declare every cookie in your policy, configure retention to no more than thirteen months, and review the configuration when adding event tracking. Use privacy friendly mode for non consenting users and full mode after consent. Compliance ## Avizi and the GDPR Avizi is classified as “Analytics”. On a site that targets European visitors, it must only load after the visitor consents, and it must be listed in your cookie policy. - Legal basis Consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) and ePrivacy Directive Art. 5(3)) - Risk level medium - Applicable regulations GDPR, ePrivacy Directive ### Impact assessment (DPIA) A DPIA may be required when Avizi is configured with user identification, behavioural session replay, or large scale combination with first party CRM data. ### Sample text for your banner > We use Avizi to measure traffic and improve the user experience.

Write to us, we answer fast. [Write to us](https://www.flowconsent.com/en/demo) ### What cookies does Avizi set? First party cookies \_avz\_vis (visitor identifier, twelve months), \_avz\_sess (session, thirty minutes), and \_avz\_src (UTM source, thirty days). ### Is consent required for Avizi? Yes, in most cases. Avizi sets identifiers that are not strictly necessary, so Art. 5(3) ePrivacy applies. Some regulators allow a strict analytics exemption if cross site IDs are disabled and retention is capped. ### What is the legal basis for Avizi? Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR plus Art. 5(3) ePrivacy). Strict analytics exemption may apply with limitations. ### Does Avizi transfer data outside the EU? No, by default. Avizi hosts in EU data centres. Check the DPA for sub processors. ### Do I need a DPIA? Generally no for standard analytics, but yes when using session replay or combining with CRM data at scale. ### How do I implement Avizi compliantly? Gate the tag behind your CMP, enable privacy mode for non consenting users, cap retention, and document cookies. ### Are there alternatives? Matomo (self hosted), Plausible Analytics, Fathom, and Pirsch are privacy first alternatives. ### How do I update my cookie policy? Add Avizi cookies with names, purposes, and durations.
