# Add Privatus Analytics to BigCommerce

> Add cookieless analytics to a BigCommerce store with Script Manager, one script in the head of every storefront page, and check the consent category.

1. In the control panel go to **Storefront → Script Manager** and create a
   new script.
2. Set the location to **Head** and the pages to **All pages**.
3. Paste the snippet as the script content:

   ```html
   <script defer src="https://privatusstats.com/js/pa.js" data-site="pa_YOURSITEID" data-modules="engage,auto,vitals,clicks,ask"></script>
   ```

4. Choose a consent category and save.

BigCommerce's [Script Manager docs](https://docs.bigcommerce.com/developer/docs/integrations/scripts)
say **All pages** covers most storefront pages, including checkout and the
order confirmation page.

## Consent category

BigCommerce hides scripts with an unknown consent category on stores that
show a cookie consent banner. Pick the category that matches your own legal
assessment. Privatus Analytics sets no cookies and stores nothing on the
device except a visitor's own opt-out choice.

## Which stores work

Script Manager is not available on Blueprint stores. Stores on Catalyst load
scripts set to **All pages** or **Storefront pages**. Checkout and order
confirmation scripts need Optimized One-Page Checkout.
