# Default vs Lite SDK Versions

The Spindl SDK is available in two privacy modes:

* **Default**: The default Spindl SDK behaves the same exact same way as other major analytics providers, whether Google Analytics, Twitter, or large attribution platforms like Branch or AppsFlyer: a combination of cookies and calculated device identifiers roughly unify a user journey across many different apps and experiences.
* **Lite**: In our ‘privacy safe’ version, we intentionally assign a transient device identifier to any Web 2 user touchpoint, refreshing the pseudonym regularly and essentially deleting any persistent data about that device. This is how Plausible and other privacy-aware services popular among some Web 3 projects work.

Both SDKs have the same API, and can be substituted between each other. The only difference is which package to install and import.
