GDPR and LOG files, what data is collected by STRATO AG?

Log data are data that STARTO AG automatically collects and stores when you visit our website. For example, STRATO AG logs access to image, sound or HTML files. All this data is recorded in a so-called log file. Based on the log data, STRATO AG creates statistics and uses the evaluation of the data to optimize the services and tries to detect and ward off attacks and optimize the services accordingly.

What data does STRATO AG collect?

Customer domain: We record which domain log data is stored for.
Anonymized client IP: In order to identify where our servers may be attacked from, we collect IP addresses. As is standard practice in the industry, we store these for a maximum of seven days. They are then anonymized.

Timestamp: This indicates on which day and at what time the visitor accessed a website.

Request line: This is the path of the destination address without the domain.

Status Code: You've probably seen a 404 page before. This is always displayed when a page or file that is being accessed cannot be found. 404 is the status code that tells us that the visitor wanted to access a non-existent page.

Response body size: When the visitor goes to our website, they download temporary data. These are, for example, the images and texts that the visitor sees in their browser. The log file indicates how large this data is.

Referrer sent by client: This field shows which page the website visitor came from.

User agent sent by the client: This includes, for example, information about the type and version of the browser and operating system that the visitor is using.

Remote User, normally this field remains empty. We only store data about this if there is a login process on the website that is based on http-Basicauth. This is a now outdated procedure that allows visitors to authenticate themselves to your website, for example by logging into a customer area. However, the vast majority of websites now use a different method that works with Javascript. In this case, no remote user is saved.

How does STRATO AG ensure that the data processed by STRATO AG is protected from unauthorized access by third parties?

The STRATO AG data centers are also checked and certified for data security by TÜV Süd according to ISO 27001. The data is protected against unauthorized access by various security mechanisms. They are located in a data pool that is logically separated from the data of other customers (e.g. pool zones, login delimitation, etc.)

  • The following information and notes on data processing are listed for the sake of completeness, even if they are already covered in whole or in part by the above-mentioned notes on data processing from Strato AG.

Collection of general information

Type and purpose of processing

When you access our website, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise submit information, information of a general nature is automatically collected. This information (server log files) includes the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your Internet service provider, your IP address and similar.

They are processed in particular for the following purposes

Ensuring problem-free connection to the website,
Ensuring smooth use of our website,
Evaluation of system security and system stability, as well as to optimize our website. We do not use your data to draw conclusions about you personally. Information of this type may be statistically evaluated by us anonymously in order to optimize our website and the technology behind it.

Legal basis and legitimate interest

Processing is carried out in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f of the GDPR based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.

Recipient

Recipients of the data may be technical service providers who act as contract processors for the operation and maintenance of our website.

Third country transfer

The data collected may be transferred via the hosting provider to the third countries Singapore and the USA. The standard contractual clauses are available as data protection guarantees.

Storage period

The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose of collection. This is generally the case for the data used to provide the website when the respective session has ended. If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after 14 days at the latest. Storage beyond this is possible. In this case, the users' IP addresses are anonymized so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.

Provision required or necessary

The provision of the aforementioned personal data is neither legally nor contractually required. However, without the IP address, the service and functionality of our website cannot be guaranteed. In addition, individual services may be unavailable or restricted. For this reason, an objection is excluded.


Cookies


Like many other websites, our website uses “cookies”.
Cookies are small text files that are transferred to your hard drive by a website server. This automatically saves certain data such as: e.g. IP address, used browser, operating system of your computer and your connection to the Internet.

Cookies cannot be used to start programs or transmit viruses to a computer. Using the information contained in cookies, we can make navigation easier for you and enable our websites to be displayed correctly.

Under no circumstances will the data we collect be passed on to third parties or linked to personal data without your consent.

Of course, you can generally view our website without cookies. Internet browsers are regularly set to accept cookies. You can deactivate the use of cookies at any time via your browser settings. Please use the help functions of your internet browser to learn how to change these settings. Please note that individual functions of our website may not work if you have deactivated the use of cookies.

Use of script libraries (Google Webfonts)

In order to display our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries on our website such as: e. g. Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google web fonts are transferred to your browser's cache to avoid multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Web Fonts or prevents access, content will be displayed in a standard font.
Calling script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator. It is theoretically possible - although it is currently unclear whether and, if so, for what purposes - that operators of corresponding libraries collect data.
The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here:

https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US

SSL encryption

In order to protect the security of your data during transmission, the current state of the art encryption method (e.g. SSL) is used via HTTPS.
