100% of the sites I build use Google Analytics and/or Piwik and/or other marketing automation platforms to gather data. These are all served via JS with a <noscript> fallback tag with an image. Yes, even Hubski (cmd+u, cmd+f, noscript) . It's standard operating procedure. Sorry. Note: we have our piwik gather very little data about you guys. We mostly like seeing where Hubski is being posted around the internet as well as how many users / pageviews we have in day / week / month / year. You can read more about what we do and don't do here.

I refuse to implement ones that share into a larger database even though I have been forced to take 3 sales calls in the last month about these "groundbreaking" technologies that allow me to get all of your information whenever you visit my site.

FYI, the absolute worst thing you can do is login via Facebook/Twitter/Google. A majority of the sales calls revolve around logging in with those services because (1) it requires very little effort on your part and (2) the amount of data I can get is outstanding. I can offer you a free dinner and in return literally get ALL of your information and your friends information. This then feeds into a database which is shared with other customers of the service. I can then search, sort, filter, and drill down into things like location, age, users who have ever visited the national monument in DC, etc. I can click on those users and see what text went along with that trip to DC. It's terrifying. But it's valuable. With email open rates becoming lower and lower every day, being able to send YOU an email about a restaurant I know you've been to means more return on my investment, not to mention a nice promotion for the tech genius. You would not believe what privacy minded people tell themselves while implementing these services. They don't want to be tracked but oh boy do they want to know you.
