German privacy-first mobile + web app analytics with on-device anonymisation, EN/DE DPA, and a transparent sub-processors list.

TelemetryDeck offers EU hosting in Germany, but a US parent or sub-processor leaves material CLOUD Act exposure. It is listed under Web analytics.

Assessment notes

German GmbH (Augsburg) with on-device anonymisation, public DPA + AVV in EN/DE and a transparent named sub-processors list, but the infrastructure mix includes Microsoft Ireland (Azure, US-owned, EU-region), AWS Inc. (Seattle), and HubSpot (US) alongside Hetzner Gunzenhausen, so customer signal data sits across multiple US-owned hyperscalers; EU-owned with a public DPA and disclosed sub-processors, but material CLOUD Act exposure due to Azure and AWS handling customer data at rest.

About TelemetryDeck

TelemetryDeck is an Augsburg-headquartered privacy-first mobile and web app analytics platform operated by TelemetryDeck GmbH (Von-der-Tann-Str. 54, 86159 Augsburg, Germany), founded in 2020 by Daniel and Lisa during the pandemic and serving more than 6,000 developers across iOS, Android, Flutter, React Native, and the web. The differentiator is on-device anonymisation: signals are hashed before they ever leave the device, so the dashboard sees only aggregate, non-identifying data, which makes app-store privacy nutrition labels trivial and removes the need for in-app tracking consent in most jurisdictions.

Trust documentation is unusually thorough for a small German vendor: a publicly-linked DPA in English, an AVV (Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrag) in German, a transparent privacy policy (last updated 30 June 2025) that names every sub-processor with its full legal address, and Standard Contractual Clauses (EU-Standarddatenschutzklauseln) cited for any third-country transfers. The infrastructure side is more mixed than the brand suggests, however. The privacy policy lists three hosting providers: Hetzner Online GmbH in Gunzenhausen (EU-owned, EU region), Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd. in Dublin (Azure, US-owned hyperscaler in an EU region), and Amazon Web Services, Inc. (Seattle legal-entity address, region unclear), which means a non-trivial portion of customer signal data at rest sits with US-owned hyperscalers. Other sub-processors include HubSpot (US, contact management), Brevo (DE, newsletter), Meta Ireland (Instagram embed), X Corp Ireland (Twitter embed), GitHub (US, code-hosting widget), and Mastodon (DE, social embed). Per the directory's strict CLOUD Act stance, where provider ownership matters more than data-centre region (Schrems II / Microsoft Ireland v US), this combination is material CLOUD Act exposure despite an otherwise excellent transparency posture.

Pricing is freemium: 100,000 signals/month free for indie developers, with paid plans starting around €9/month; annual billing offered with 20% discount. Awards: CDR Corporate Digital Responsibility 2024, MyData Award 2025, Augusta Wirtschaftspreis für Frauen. Best fit: indie iOS/Android/Flutter developers and small mobile-app shops who want on-device privacy with a clean DPA story and don't mind the Azure-EU + AWS dependency. Procurement-grade enterprise mobile teams with strict no-US-cloud requirements should look at self-hosted Matomo for mobile, or evaluate whether the Hetzner-only data path can be selected explicitly with TelemetryDeck.
