4.1 Each time a user accesses one of our pages and each time a file is retrieved,
data is stored in a log file via this process. The storage is for internal system-related
and statistical purposes only. To prevent attacks from the Internet and to
troubleshoot, we need to store your IP address. However, this data will be deleted as
soon as possible, no later than seven days. In detail, the following record is stored for
each call:
- Your IP-address (by which your computer can be uniquely identified) in the logfiles of the Web server
- The remote host (name and IP address of the computer requesting the page),
- The time, the status, the amount of data transferred and the Internet page from which you came to the requested page (referrer), as well as

are particularly popular and how much data volume is generated on them. In
addition, we can detect possible errors through the log files, e.g. faulty links or
program errors, and thus use the log files for the further development of the Internet
pages. We do not link the page requests and usages stored in the server log with
individual persons. A link only takes place when the IP address is stored in the event
of misuse.
