Recover Analytics Data Blocked by Adblockers
Filter lists like EasyPrivacy and uBlock Origin block requests to google-analytics.com, googletagmanager.com, and connect.facebook.net the moment they leave the browser — silently, with no error visible to you.
This page explains exactly what gets blocked, why those domains are on every filter list, and how a first-party proxy recovers the signals without rerouting all your traffic or requiring server-side infrastructure.

How Introtrace Recovers Your Blocked Data
Unlike server-side tracking or full proxies, Introtrace only touches signals that adblockers actually block. Everything else goes directly to your analytics provider.
Add One Script Tag
Add a single line of code to your website. No server-side changes, no complex configuration. Works alongside your existing GA4, GTM, and marketing pixels.
Blocked Signals Detected
When an adblock or privacy extension blocks an analytics signal, our lightweight script detects it instantly. Unblocked signals are never touched.
Data Recovered to Your Tools
Blocked signals are routed through our proxy and forwarded to your analytics provider. Your GA4, GTM, Facebook Pixel, and other tools receive the complete data.
Works With Every Analytics Platform
Introtrace recovers blocked signals for all major analytics and marketing platforms. No configuration needed per tool.

Why Adblockers Block Your Analytics
Adblockers don't guess — they match against maintained blocklists that explicitly target analytics and tracking domains. Understanding this is the key to recovering the data.
The Filter Lists
Community-maintained lists like EasyPrivacy, uBlock Origin filters, and Disconnect.me's tracking list contain tens of thousands of patterns targeting known analytics domains. They're updated daily as new tracking endpoints appear.

Extensions aren't the whole picture. Brave, Firefox ETP, Safari ITP, and Edge all ship with tracking protection on by default — no extension required. This means a meaningful share of your audience is blocking analytics at the browser level without ever installing anything.

Filter lists match against request domains and URL patterns. When a blocked analytics signal is rerouted through a subdomain of your own site — for example, analytics.yoursite.com — it doesn't match any pattern on any blocklist. The request is indistinguishable from any other first-party API call your site makes.
