Google Analytics — analytics (only with consent).
Akismet (Automattic, Inc.) — Akismet may process Listing-submission and form data for spam prevention. It may not always set browser cookies, but it is listed here because it supports anti-abuse and similar technologies.

These providers process data under their own privacy policies (see Privacy Policy §3.2).
