Yandex Metrica is used only when the site owner enters a Yandex Metrica counter ID and enables counter output in the plugin settings. The plugin loads the Yandex Metrica tracking script from: * https://mc.yandex.ru/metrika/tag.js The plugin may also output a noscript tracking pixel from: * https://mc.yandex.ru/watch/{counter_id} When the counter is loaded, Yandex Metrica may collect visitor data according to the Yandex Metrica service terms and privacy policy. This may include information such as page URL, referrer, browser information, device information, IP address, cookies, and visitor interactions, depending on the Yandex Metrica counter settings configured by the site owner. The plugin itself does not send analytics data to the plugin author. The data is sent directly from the visitor’s browser to Yandex Metrica when the counter is loaded. Yandex Metrica Terms of Use: * https://yandex.com/legal/metrica_termsofuse/ Yandex Privacy Policy: * https://yandex.com/legal/confidential/en/ Yandex Metrica documentation: * https://yandex.ru/support/metrica/en/ ### Privacy This plugin does not send data to the plugin author and does not connect to vagizov. com from the frontend. Yandex Metrica is a third-party analytics service. Site owners are responsible for configuring Yandex Metrica, privacy notices, consent banners and legal compliance for their own sites. ## Screenshots [⌊Counter settings: enter only the Yandex Metrica counter ID, enable tracking options, ecommerce dataLayer, and exclude logged-in WordPress users.⌉⌊Counter settings: enter only the Yandex Metrica counter ID, enable tracking options, ecommerce dataLayer, and exclude logged-in WordPress users.⌉[ Counter settings: enter only the Yandex Metrica counter ID, enable tracking options, ecommerce dataLayer, and exclude logged-in WordPress users.

No. Vagizov Metrika Loader is an unofficial plugin and is not affiliated with Yandex. ### Does the plugin create a Yandex Metrica counter? No. Create the counter in your Yandex Metrica account, then paste only its numeric ID into the plugin settings. ### Why is the recommended mode “user interaction or delay”? It is a balanced mode. The Yandex script does not load in the critical rendering path, but the counter can still load after a fallback delay if the visitor does not interact with the page. ### Can delayed loading make statistics incomplete? Yes. The later the counter loads, the higher the risk that very short or inactive visits will not be recorded. This is a performance and analytics trade-off. ### Does the plugin remove bots from Yandex Metrica? No. Bot filtering is configured in Yandex Metrica itself. This plugin can delay loading so inactive bot-like visits may not trigger the counter, but it is not a replacement for Yandex Metrica filters. ### Can the plugin remove an old duplicate counter automatically? No. The plugin can help detect possible code in the active theme files, but it does not edit your theme files automatically. Remove old counter code manually after making a backup. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Vagizov Metrika Loader” is open source software.
