Looking at the page source of the docs hosted on RTD I see "global_analytics_code": "UA-17997319-1",

in

<script type="application/json" id="READTHEDOCS_DATA">{"ad_free": false, "api_host": "https://readthedocs.org", "build_date": "2021-11-24T19:10:36Z", "builder": "sphinx", "canonical_url": null, "commit": "b989042f", "docroot": "/docs/rst/", "features": {"docsearch_disabled": false}, "global_analytics_code": "UA-17997319-1", "language": "en", "page": "index", "programming_language": "py", "project": "mdacli", "proxied_api_host": "/_", "source_suffix": ".rst", "subprojects": {}, "theme": "sphinx_rtd_theme", "user_analytics_code": "", "version": "latest"}</script>

and

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://assets.readthedocs.org/static/javascript/readthedocs-analytics.js" async="async"></script>

Looking at https://assets.readthedocs.org/static/javascript/readthedocs-analytics.js this sets cookies and does send information to Google.

None of this is covered in our Privacy Policy so the docs cannot be served from mdacli.mdanalysis.org as they are. Anything under mdanalysis.org must comply with our privacy policy.

My recommendation is to switch to GH pages and serve as www.mdanalysis.org/mdacli.
