Website of the Dutch digital infrastructure agency

Logius.nl is the site of the Dutch digital infrastructure agency, responsible for the DigiD digital identification system, the MijnOverheid portal, and government authentication. Homepage scan: 33 requests, 4 domains. The configuration is exemplary. There are only two external services, both government infrastructure: the government's centralized web-statistics platform, Piwik PRO, running in anonymized mode, and the agency's own technical error-monitoring system, deployed on government infrastructure. The scan shows no Google Analytics, no Facebook, no advertising, no session recording, and no third-party commercial trackers. Not a single cookie was set during the session. No violations were recorded.

Context

www.logius.nl is the website of the Dutch digital infrastructure agency (Logius): the DigiD digital identification system, the MijnOverheid portal, government authentication, and standards. The data controller is Logius, part of the government apparatus. The site is informational.

Who receives the data

There are no third-party commercial recipients.

There are only two external services, both government infrastructure: the government’s centralized web-statistics platform, built on Piwik PRO in anonymized mode, and the agency’s own technical error- and security-monitoring system. The scan shows no Google Analytics, no advertising networks, no social media pixels, and no session recording.

A full banner for the statistics is not required here: it is configured anonymously — it anonymizes the IP address and does not intrude on privacy, and is therefore exempt from consent. Not a single cookie was set during the entire session. Technical error monitoring relates to supporting the site’s operation.

Only anonymized government statistics and technical monitoring. Before any interaction, the government’s centralized, anonymized statistics and a report to the agency’s own error-monitoring system on government infrastructure fire. The scan contains no Google analytics, no advertising domains, no social plugins, and no session recording.

Conclusion

Logius.nl is a model of a restrained configuration for an agency responsible for the state’s critical digital infrastructure. There are only two external services, and both are government-run: the government’s anonymized web statistics and the agency’s own technical error monitoring. There is no third-party advertising, no Google analytics, no social media pixels, and no session recording whatsoever, the statistics tool anonymizes IP, and no cookies are set. The key takeaway for the reader: a digital infrastructure agency can manage perfectly well with its own anonymized statistics and technical monitoring on its own infrastructure, and here that is achieved without a single third-party commercial tracker. No violations were recorded.
