Piwik Pro also measures the search terms users enter in search engines on the website. Finally, we also measure the equipment and software that users use (devices, browsers, operating systems).

Masked IP addresses

We have taken measures to limit the traceability of visitors to our website as much as possible. We do this by immediately discarding the last two digit groups (octets) of each IP address in Piwik Pro's log file import. This is done in temporary memory before the masked IP addresses are stored in Piwik Pro. The log files are kept on the web server for five days to be available for Piwik Pro. Afterward, the log files are kept for 90 days solely for the purpose of detecting security incidents.

We may update this cookie statement from time to time as necessary. We recommend checking this statement regularly. The latest version is always available on this webpage.
