Website Log Files
When you visit our websites, your browser transmits certain data to our web server for technical reasons. The following data are recorded during an ongoing connection for communication between your internet browser and our web server:

Date and time of your request
Name of the requested file
Page from which the file was requested
Access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.)
Type and version of the browser and the operating system you use
Full IP address of the requesting computer
Quantity of data transferred

For reasons of technical security, in particular to prevent attacks on our web server, we store these data for a short period of time. It is impossible to discern the identity of indi-vidual persons based on this data. After 30 days at the latest, the data is anonymized by shortening the IP address at the domain level, so that it is no longer possible to establish any reference to the individual user. The anonymized data will also be processed for sta-tistical purposes. We don’t compare any data to data in other databases or forward them to third parties, even in excerpts.
