    TL;DR

    Since April 2023, TWIPLA has partnered with the Technical University of Munich (TUM) to provide a complete consentless website intelligence suite, enabling the university to remove its cookie banner while remaining fully compliant with GDPR and ePrivacy.

    This transformation enabled TUM to collect data on 400% more visitors previously invisible to analysis (unveiling those visitors that denied consent before the cookie banner was removed) and has significantly improved UX by eliminating intrusive pop-ups, overall offering deeper insights into website performance and visitor behavior.

    To further maximize the utility of their data, TWIPLA developed custom dashboards for TUM on request. These dashboards give the university full control over reporting and collaborator access to sensitive data, ensuring tailored insights for various departments and aligning analytics with the university’s achievements.

    By adopting TWIPLA’s privacy-first technology, TUM has strengthened its reputation as a secure, innovative, and data-driven institution, delivering a seamless and trustworthy online experience for its 50,000+ students and millions of website visitors.
