HTTPS and Secure Transfer

Our website is covered by HTTPS encryption. If you want to make sure a page is encrypted, a padlock will appear in the address bar at the top of the browser and/or it will say “https” instead of just “http” in front of the address.

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 authentic.

Statistics and Log

When you read our website, 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 keyword. All data in the raw data table is deleted after 2 days, and the remaining statistics then contain only summarized data that cannot be used to identify individual users.

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