    Hi Kriesies!
    Can it be that the IP is shown / saved when someone sets a comment on the website?
    Is this DSGVO-conform?

    Thanks for your feedback

    Hey werbeagenturlauf,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    That is fine as long as its stated in your privacy policy that you’re collecting such data. You can find an example of that here:

    // https://kriesi.at/privacy-policy

    Look for the Section 3. DATA COLLECTION ON OUR WEBSITE. The type of data that are being collected are explicitly stated in that section.

    Server log files
The website provider automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us in “server log files”. These are:

Browser type and browser version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
IP address

    This article should help.

    Hi Ismael!
    Thanks for your answer, but my question was: Is the collecting of the server log files conform with the DSGVO? ;-)
    I Mean if your are using Analytic-Tools your are asked to cut of the last three numbers of the ip an here in the comments we collect the hole ip?!

    I have read your article https://kriesi.at/archives/enfold-4-4-and-the-gdpr-general-data-protection-regulation but didn’t find my answer.

    Pleas provide me further information. thanks to you

    Best regards

    Hi,

    According to article 5 of the privacy regulation, it is legal to collect those data as long as it is specified and explicitly stated somewhere e.g, in your privacy policy page as previously mentioned. And that the data is legitimately use for and limited to the specified purpose it was intended to. At least that is how I understand it.

    Hi Ismael.

    I am sure somebody will be able to translate the few German words I am using here ;-)

    … you are quite right with one exception.

    The “DSGVO” wants you to put a “Häckchen” OK-Sign and a link to the “Datenschutzerklärung” in a E-Mail-Form (where sensible Data is send) you confirm that you have read the “Datenschutzerklärung”.
    The DSGVO wants you to shorten the IP-Adress when using Google Analytics.
    But when leaving a comment the user gives his full IP and the name of the provider to the Webhoster (and also will receive a Mail with this content), and that is, according to our “Datenschutzbeauftragter” not correct. At this place there should also be an information with a link to the “Datenschutzerklärung”
    And the DSGVO wants me – as the provider of the website – to be able to export all the given Information by the user and in special case I also have to delete this information.

    I know the “DSGVO” is rather a young law and we will all have to learn a lot more about it. Maybe we should think web-responsibility new and find solutions to make us Webdesigners and webhoster safer facing the “DSGVO”.

    Hope not to bother you too much

    Hi,

    Thanks for the info.

    We’ll ask someone who can understand the language to check this thread and clarify things out. Please wait for their response.

    We are not in the position to give sound advice regarding these matters, so it is probably best if you consult someone who has more authority on the subject.

    Best regards,
    Ismael
