Aptabase: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Aptabase is an open-source analytics platform for mobile, desktop and web apps, positioned as an alternative to Firebase Analytics and Google Analytics. According to the vendor, it collects no personal data, cookies or device identifiers and counts sessions rather than unique users. SDKs exist for Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, React Native, Electron, Tauri, .NET MAUI, Unity and JavaScript, among others, and a built-in dashboard is included. You can use Aptabase Cloud or host the software yourself.

Aptabase Cloud is operated by Technov Solutions SRL in Bucharest, Romania. You choose a region when you register: according to the privacy policy, the EU region (Germany) processes and stores data exclusively within the European Union, while the US region (Virginia) does so exclusively within the United States. The server is licensed under AGPL-3.0 and the SDKs under MIT, with the source code on GitHub. Self-hosting on your own servers is possible at no licence cost, with maintenance and updates your own responsibility. A European organisation can therefore decide both jurisdiction and storage location itself.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Aptabase

Aptabase is headquartered in RO and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Aptabase hosts data in EU, US. Exactly what stays within the EU — and what does not — is defined by the vendor's data processing agreement and sub-processor list, not by a setting you control yourself; check those documents for the precise scope, including backups, logs and support access.

Aptabase is open source. You can audit the source code, self-host the software and keep the encryption keys under your own control. Switching is easier because data and software are not tied to a single party.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Aptabase together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
