That is why GP said "(no advertising features)." That is the name of the feature in GA that does that, and it can be disabled.

But I also understand the law, that anonymous user statistics are just fine and don't need consent as long as you retain the data yourself and of course mention it in your privacy policy. Though you might still be obligated to respect "do not track" and adding an opt-out setting.
