Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Sawir Insights

Hosted analytics services like Hotjar and Microsoft Clarity are excellent tools with generous free tiers — and they work by sending a record of your visitors' behavior to their servers. Sawir Insights trades that cross-site infrastructure for one constraint: everything is collected, stored, and viewed on your own site. Choose a hosted service if you want its extras and don't mind third-party processing; choose Sawir Insights if visitor data leaving your server is a dealbreaker. Recordings and heatmaps live in your own database and uploads directory, so the retention settings matter more here than in a SaaS.

The plugin is built for privacy-conscious deployments: data stays on your server, IP addresses are never stored, retention is configurable, Do Not Track is honored, and WordPress export/erasure tools are integrated. Compliance itself depends on your configuration, notices, legal basis, and consent implementation — consult qualified counsel for your site.

No. The plugin sends no behavioral data to Sawir Studio or any analytics provider. Events live in your WordPress database; recording files live beneath your protected uploads directory.

Yes. I keep this as a wp-config.php-only setting so database credentials never enter the WordPress options table. Define all four constants before the "That's all, stop editing" line: define( 'SWINS_DB_HOST', 'localhost' ); define( 'SWINS_DB_NAME', 'analytics' ); define( 'SWINS_DB_USER', 'analytics_user' ); define( 'SWINS_DB_PASSWORD', 'a-strong-password' ); The analytics tables keep the main site's table prefix, so moving between the WordPress database and an external database is a plain table copy. Do not run two live collecting databases for one site: copy the tables, switch the constants, and only then resume collection. Otherwise you will split one site's history across two databases.

No.

Enable "Require consent before tracking," then call window.swinsConsent('grant') when consent is granted and window.swinsConsent('revoke') when it is withdrawn. The decision is saved in a first-party cookie.

No. Form capture records selectors, timing, and empty-state metadata only. Values never leave the browser.

Recording is disabled by default. When enabled, all input values are masked automatically, canvas capture is off, and replay chunks stay beneath the guarded wp-content/uploads/sawir-insights/recordings/ directory. Only administrators can retrieve them, through an authenticated REST endpoint.

Add the swins-mask class or data-swins-mask attribute to mask an element's text. Add the swins-block class to omit an element entirely from recordings.

Insights → Settings has separate recording retention and disk-cap controls. Past the cap, the oldest recordings are removed first. Usage is tracked continuously and recalculated weekly.
