HTTPS and Secure Transfer

Our website is covered by HTTPS encryption. If you want to make sure a page is encrypted, you will see a padlock and/or "https" instead of just "http" in the address bar at the top of the browser. The purpose of encryption is to ensure secure data communication between the server (the website) and the client (your computer). This includes a digital certificate to prove that the website and its sender are genuine.

Statistics and Logs

When you browse our pages, information will be stored in statistics and log files.

The system does NOT store user agent or IP address, but stores which page the visitor has visited in a raw data table. This information is subsequently used to generate statistics for the number of page views per object (menu item, article, file), per host and per search term. All data in the raw data table is deleted after 2 days, and the remaining statistics then only contain summarised data that cannot be used to identify individual users.

We also do not store user agent or IP address in the web server logs, but may store which pages have been visited. These logs are used exclusively for debugging and security work and no data is extracted or used from these logs. The logs are deleted after a set interval (normally 4 weeks). Only administrators of the web server have access to these.
