What personal data we collect and why we collect it
The owners don’t like tracking tools, but sometimes they look after how many visitors requested the website, what kind of articles are more requested than others, from where the users accessed our website. Single users are not interesting for us. This interest do we interprete as the in the European Privacy Regulation mentioned “legitimate interest” – concrete Art. 6 – EU-GDPR – Lawfulness of Processing.
Our hosting service provider Hetzner Online GmbH is offering logfiles (which are standard in webhosting services). Logfile data are automatically saved any time when somebody is accessing a page. They collect when a user is accessing a html or image file as anonymized IP addresses of visitors. In the logfile, for instance, instead of the factual IP address of a visitor like 123.123.123.123 an address like 123.123.123.XXX will be saved. XXX is an accidential value between 1 and 254. This makes a connection between IP and a person impossible. We save the logfile data:
- Mailserverlog: 7 days
- Apachelog: XXX
- Backups: 14 days in encrypted form
Based on these data we might receive statistic information through the analytical programs AWStats und Report Magic, doing logfile analysis. As well these are anonomyzed and a connection to a certain person is impossible. The following data are analized:
- browser type and version,
- operating system,
- date and time of server request,
- amount of visits,
- duration of visits,
- in advance visited websites (if user is sending this information),
- users’ IP addresses are anonymized befor saving them.
Some of the in the following mentioned aspects might be not relevant to you as we don’t use tracking or other analytical tools. But you never know if not thanks to plugins or content from other parties strange things happen. We herewith explain that we try to use only such plugins conform with data security standards.
