Overview

MCP Find is an open-source directory of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. We do not sell personal data. We do not require account creation. We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand aggregate usage patterns so we can improve the directory.

Data We Collect

We use Google Analytics 4 (property ID: G-LLD1VR2K5Z) to collect anonymous, aggregate analytics. GA4 may collect:

  • Pages visited and time on page
  • Approximate geographic region (country/city — not street-level)
  • Browser type and device category
  • Referrer source and medium (how you arrived at the site)
  • Aggregated conversion events (described below)

GA4 uses cookies to distinguish unique sessions. No personally identifiable information (PII) such as name, email address, or IP address is stored by MCP Find.

GA4 Conversion Events — Non-PII Payload Contract

MCP Find fires four custom GA4 conversion events. Each event payload is strictly limited to non-personal, non-identifying data. No email addresses, names, free-text query strings, or user identifiers are ever included.

submit_form_completed

Fired when a user successfully opens the GitHub editor via the Submit a Server form.

Payload fields:

  • category — enum: bug | feature | server-submit | other
  • has_email_provided — boolean (always false for this form; included for future contact forms)

Forbidden: email value, name, message body, any free-text field.

blog_to_servers_click

Fired when a user clicks a related server card inside a blog post. Measures how often editorial content drives discovery of new servers.

Payload fields:

  • blog_slug — URL slug of the source blog post (e.g. top-github-mcp-servers)
  • server_slug — URL slug of the destination server (e.g. github-mcp)
  • category — server category enum

Forbidden: user identifiers, query strings beyond category.

server_outbound_click

Fired when a user clicks an outbound link on a server detail page (e.g., View on GitHub or a package registry link).

Payload fields:

  • server_slug — URL slug of the server
  • destination_host — hostname only (e.g. github.com — never the full URL)

Forbidden: full destination URL with query string, referrer chain.

directory_search_used

Fired when a user interacts with the directory search bar or category filter on the Browse Servers page.

Payload fields:

  • category — category enum or empty string for "All Categories"
  • results_count — bucketed integer: 0 | 1-5 | 6-20 | 20+ (never exact count)

Forbidden: exact query string (we bucket result counts to prevent fingerprinting).

LLM Referrer Analysis

GA4 source/medium reporting may reveal referral traffic from AI assistants and large language model (LLM) chat interfaces (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity). We analyze this aggregate data to understand how AI tools discover and recommend MCP Find. No individual user sessions are identified or linked to specific AI interactions.

Cookies

Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (_ga, _ga_*) to distinguish sessions. These cookies do not identify you personally.

MCP Find does not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or any third-party analytics beyond GA4.

EU visitors: If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), GA4 is configured with IP anonymization enabled. We do not currently display a cookie consent banner — if you have questions about GDPR compliance, contact us at the address below.
