Privacy and cookies
When you visit our website, your browser will download cookies. These are small text files that are exchanged between your browser and our website and are used to make the website work as well as possible.
As a web user, you can choose to reject the storage and use of cookies. We recommend the Norwegian Post and Telecommunications Authority's website nettvett.no for a description of how you can accept or reject cookies.
HTTPS and secure transmission
Our website uses HTTPS encryption. If you want to make sure a page is encrypted, it will say "https" instead of just "http" in your browser's address bar. Most browsers will also display a padlock.
The purpose of encryption is to ensure secure data communication between the server (our website) and the client (your computer). This includes a digital certificate that proves that the website and its sender are genuine.
Statistics and log
When you visit our website, information will be stored in a statistics database. Information about which pages your visitors have visited is stored in a raw data table. No personal data is stored. This information is then used to generate statistics for the number of page views per object (menu item, article, file), per server and per search term. All data in the raw data table is deleted after 2 days and the remaining statistics only contain summarized data that cannot be used to identify the individual visitor.
We also use Google Analytics to store visitor data. IP addresses are not stored and it is not possible for us to link visitor statistics to individual visitors. Visitor statistics are only available to the web editors and the IT department in our company.
We store the user agent, IP address and which page the visitor has visited in the web server logs. These logs are used exclusively for troubleshooting and security work, and no data is extracted or used from these logs. The logs are deleted after a given interval (normally 4 weeks). Only web server administrators (operations) have access to these.
