The text on that website does state that some DPAs have found some first-party analytics acceptable, but that's not something that is confirmed by CJEU. And ePD does not have single-stop shop so you need to follow every DPAs directions if you are offering services to that DPA's country.

GDPR isn't unique in that. When HIPAA came out in the US, no one was sure what it actually meant. I personally talked to hospital administrators who were convinced that we'd have to put up a "take a number" device in waiting rooms and call out "#53? It's your turn #53!", which the owners of the practice I ran flat-out refused to do: "the waiting room is currently occupied by Mr. Smith and Mrs. Jones, who have known each other since kindergarten, and I'm not going to refer to them as numbers". It took several years to build consensus on how to comply with it.

(but some informational requirements have been slightly relaxed recently I think)
