### Bug description The 'press releases' page ([ex](https://www.privacyguides.o…rg/p/d4883807-8f86-4495-a757-8959ec627f1b/)) loads an 'analytics' path: `https://www.privacyguides.org/.ghost/analytics/api/v1/page_hit?name=analytics_events`. Not sure if the analytics payload is common across PG web properties. If feasible, - Remove the analytics payload. - Provide opt-out, or better, make it opt-in. - Move the analytics payload to its own subdomain so it can be added to domain blocklists. ### Affected pages *.privacyguides.org ### Browser _No response_ ### Operating System _No response_ ### Before submitting - [x] I am reporting something that is broken on the website, not making a suggestion. - [x] I agree to the [Community Code of Conduct](https://www.privacyguides.org/coc).
