Is Piwik PRO HIPAA compliant? BAA by plan, covered services and exclusions

Conditional Piwik PRO offers a BAA on the Enterprise plan and during the 30-day Business free trial; the main exclusion is the paid Business plan after the trial (verdict date 2026-10-28).

Whether you can put PHI-adjacent analytics data into Piwik PRO depends on your plan, your hosting region and a countersigned BAA, not on the product name.

Short answer

Piwik PRO signs a BAA on Enterprise (from EUR 366/month billed annually) and during the free Business trial. After the trial, the paid Business plan has no BAA. Customizing the BAA terms is possible only on paid Enterprise. US HIPAA-eligible Azure hosting is an Enterprise option.

In the wording this site uses: BAA available on Enterprise for the Piwik PRO Analytics Suite; trial-only on Business. See Is it HIPAA compliant? All vendors for how other vendors compare on the same terms.

Which plans include a BAA

A BAA (business associate agreement) is the contract that lets a vendor handle PHI for a covered entity. Definitions for BAA and PHI are in the HIPAA glossary (BAA, PHI).

Plan BAA How it is obtained Extra cost
Enterprise Available Through sales From EUR 366/month billed annually (plan price)
Business (30-day free trial only) Available during the trial Downloadable BAA that you countersign Not published by the vendor
Business (paid, beyond trial) Not available Not published by the vendor Not published by the vendor

What the BAA covers and what it excludes

Covered:

  • Piwik PRO Analytics Suite on Enterprise: analytics, tag manager, consent manager and customer data platform.

Excluded or limited:

  • The paid Business plan after the trial has no BAA.
  • Business uses EU-only hosting. US HIPAA-eligible Azure hosting is an Enterprise option.
  • BAA scope can be customized only on paid Enterprise. On other plans you sign the standard document.

For a clinic's marketing owner, the practical result is this: a trial BAA lets you test on the Business plan, but moving to paid Business ends the BAA. Plan the move to Enterprise before any production traffic is tied to PHI.

"Not published by the vendor" means the evaluator should ask Piwik PRO directly. It does not mean the control is absent.

How to use Piwik PRO with PHI

Compliance depends on the signed BAA, configuration and policies, not on the vendor alone. A checklist for the customer side:

  1. Sign the BAA before any PHI is collected, and file the countersigned copy in your vendor inventory.
  2. Confirm your plan and hosting region match what the BAA covers (for US data, the Enterprise Azure option).
  3. Configure the tag manager so tags collect only what is needed. For example, keep appointment-type URLs, patient-portal paths and intake-form field values out of analytics events unless your privacy officer has approved them.
  4. Set up the consent manager to match your privacy notice and your own policies.
  5. Manage user access and offboarding, so a departed marketing contractor loses access the same day.
  6. Document analytics use in your policies and staff training.
  7. Re-verify scope if the plan, region or contract changes.

Can Piwik PRO host data in the US for HIPAA use?
