Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records WE – Google Analytics version 1.5 as active, updated 1y ago and tested up to WordPress 7.2.

GDPR

This plugin does not collect any user data. Even so, the tracking code added by this plugin is used by Google to collect all sorts of user data. So this plugin does not do anything to make your site less compliant with GDPR.

I have done my best to ensure that this plugin is 100% GDPR compliant, but I’m not a lawyer so can’t guarantee anything. To ensure that your site is compliant with GDPR, please consult an attorney, and also check with Google and/or configure your Google account settings and/or tracking code as required by GDPR.
