At some point it will be also good to have an action button in the visitor log for "Managing the rights" for that visitor. We would not be able to find the same visitor across sites though very likely. It may be useful though as it can offer a lot of flexibility in finding visitors (for one site).

And we'll likely also build a new very useful little tool: Personal Data Anonymisation & Removal tool #12641

information architecture of the Privacy features and tools.

As the current "Settings" and GDPR Tools and GDPR Manager menu entries all refer to different tools and maybe we can simply the structure like something like this:

• "Anonymise data" (anon IP + delete logs + delete reports + anon old logs) ,
• "Privacy policy" (remind how important it is to have a good privacy policy + link to users opt-out)
• "Users opt-out" (iframe + DNT),
• "Asking for consent" (JS API doc, later the consent UI),
• "GDPR tools" (request to access+delete tool, + link to the tools available in the other sections)
• "GDPR overview"

Could you also create a stripped-down "non personal data" only version of Matomo (that could be selected in the settings)?

That stripped-down version would not collect personal at all. For example, only the following could be tracked:

• How often a particular page was viewed (but not by whom)
• Which campaigns received the most clicks (but not by whom)
• Which campaigns received the most goals, etc.

As far as I understand it, such a Matomo version would be GDPR compliant without the need to show a cookie banner and without the need for consent (as no personal data is collected).

I don't think we will be working on this, however, you can disable plugins to trim down the amount of features and data being recorded etc.

stripped-down version would not collect personal at all

This could be a bit misleading as for example page titles, page URLs, or even campaign names may include personal data.
