Data privacy

Welcome to our website. We respect your privacy and protect your data. This is the main privacy policy for the Hi-Drive Project. Following, we will detail which information is collected and stored for what reasons and to what extent by using this website.

Processing of protocol data

Every visit of this website and every transfer of files generates protocol data in a so called server log-file on the webserver. In detail the following data is logged:

  • IP address (anonymized)
  • Directory protection user
  • Date and time of the request
  • Names of the requested files
  • Protocols
  • Status code
  • Transferred amount of data
  • Referrer
  • User agent
  • Accessed host name

The server log files are stored for a maximum of 60 days and then deleted. The data is stored for security reasons, e.g. to be able to clarify attacks and cases of abuse. If data must remain stored for reasons of evidence, they are excluded from deletion until the incident has been finally clarified.

Error logs, which record incorrect page views, are deleted after 7 days. In addition to the error messages, these error logs contain the accessing IP address and, depending on the error, the accessed website.

In order to protect your transferred data we use an encryption via SSL. You can recognize this kind of connection by the prefix https:// in the address line of your web browser. Due to the SSL encryption, all data that is transferred to this website by you cannot be read by third parties.
