log files when visiting the website
When you use our website, our hosting provider logs so-called “log file” data each time you access the server, such as the name of the website accessed, the previously visited page (“referrer” URL), product and version information of the browser and operating system used, requesting provider, date and time of access, search engines used, country of access, amount of data transferred, names of downloaded files and IP address.
The legal basis for the processing is Article 6 paragraph 1 f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest in storing the log file data lies in ensuring system security, including the investigation of misuse. The log file data is deleted or anonymized after a maximum of 30 days, unless it is required for longer due to a security-relevant incident, e.g. for clarification or evidence purposes.
