What is Glue Kit?

Glue Kit is a small analytics script that runs on websites built and maintained by Atomic Glue. If a page you visited made a request to gluekit.dev, that was us, counting an anonymous pageview so the site's owner knows what's working.

If you came from your browser dev tools
*.gluekit.dev

That's our analytics endpoint. It receives lightweight pageview and event pings from sites Atomic Glue operates. No cookies, no cross-site tracking, no third-party trackers piggybacking along.

Why am I seeing this domain?

There are a few ways a Glue Kit request ends up in your traffic. None of them are exciting.

01 Most likely

You visited a website we built.

Atomic Glue builds websites and applications for companies and agencies. Some sites we operate include Glue Kit so the owner can see how visitors find them: what pages work, where traffic comes from, when something breaks.

02 Sometimes

You used an app powered by us.

A handful of agency partners run their internal tools and client dashboards on infrastructure we maintain. Those tools page home to Glue Kit for uptime and usage metrics. Never anything tied to your identity.

03 Occasionally

Your firewall got curious.

If a corporate DNS log or pi-hole surfaced gluekit.dev with no obvious source, it was almost certainly the analytics call from a normal browsing session. Safe to allow.

Everything Glue Kit actually sends home.

We built Glue Kit because off-the-shelf analytics ship with five trackers and a cookie banner. We didn't want that. Neither do our clients.

What we collect

The bare minimum to be useful.

  • The page URL you landed on, so the site owner knows which content people read.
  • The referring site, if any, to tell organic search from a link in someone's newsletter.
  • Country and rough device class, derived from the request, then discarded. We keep "United States, mobile," not your IP.
  • Custom events set up by the site owner, like form submits or button clicks. Never automatic keystroke or scroll logging.
What we don't

Everything the rest of the industry sells.

  • No cookies. No localStorage. No "remember this browser" identifiers. We don't write anything to your browser.
  • No browser fingerprinting. We don't sniff fonts, canvas, audio context, or any of the usual suspects.
  • No cross-site tracking. Glue Kit data lives in one client's account. We don't sell, share, or pool it across sites.
  • No third parties. The script runs on private servers. It doesn't call out to ad networks, data brokers, or session replay tools.
