: Finding out who owns a Google Analytics UA code An old client got in touch asking about GA access, but is isn't something we have and the company we believe has it isn't claiming ownership

An old client got in touch asking about GA access, but is isn't something we have and the company we believe has it isn't claiming ownership either.

Is there a way to contact Google to ask who the owner of a particular UA is? Or anyway to do it without Google?

I should mention, we don't want ownership, we just want to track down who has it and point the client in the right direction.

Try domainmetrics.de to find out to whom a certain analytics-id belongs
(no knowledge of the german language neccessary).

You can't get the information from Google. They state their policy about identifying the owner of a Google Analytics id here:

It's not a direct answer, but one way you might find out what other sites are on the same Analytics account is to use a reverse lookup. Assuming multiples (since this seems like a client situation, that could give you a hint who the owner is or at least a few other leads for people to contact and work your way back.

Try emailing Google, look for the help/support section in Google Analytics. Another way would be having the client claim it and then it will show all the owners when your client logs in.
