2018. Piwik rebrands as Matomo

After 10 years of Piwik and the amazing achievement of building the top open source analytics software that gives every user full control of their data, the developers are now looking forward to the next chapter. Thus, Piwik, the community project, will now become Matomo. The only change is our name, everything else stays the same. With the strong focus on privacy worldwide and the upcoming privacy regulations about to be legislated in Europe, it is clear that the developers were on the right mission from the very beginning. With the upcoming big release Matomo 4.0 planned for this year, new privacy protections will bring users the tools to be compliant with the GDPR privacy laws. And Matomo will grow in line with these regulations, with a very clear and focused vision.
