Privacy policy for the Unix Support web server
This web server maintains logs of all requests made to it. These logs are kept for the purposes of system administration, bug tracking and usage statistics. The information is kept for 14 days on disc and for no longer than a further 14 days on the backup tapes.
Relevant subsets of this data may be passed to computer security teams as part of investigations of specific attacks involving the web server. Otherwise the logged information is not passed to any third party except where required by law.
Please note that a log is a record of what a server sees, not necessarily what was initially sent. If a request is sent via a proxy the log file will show the proxy's address. If someone has forged your address the log file will show your address.
