3. Log Files

Auxave follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. All hosting companies do this and a part of hosting services’ analytics. The information collected by log files include internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.

4. Third-Party Monitoring & Analytics

We may use third-party Service providers to monitor and analyze the use of our Service.

• Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a globally used analytic tracking platform that helps us, the website owner, see what traffic we receive to our website. Google Analytics tracks how visits reach our site, whether it is direct traffic, a referral from another website or app, from social media & other digital platforms. Google Analytics can determine a users’ IP address, the town/city/country they are viewing from, the pages the user is & has viewed, how many times they have visited the site & for how long.

• Cloudflare

Cloudflare is used as a web traffic proxy to help ensure our website is secure. Web traffic is sent firstly to Cloudflare & then on to our web server. Cloudflare proactively filters web traffic to ensure bots are blocked & legitimate requests are allowed. Cloudflare logs a visitors’ IP address which helps it to mitigate attacks from bots & filter out good/bad traffic.

• Security Plugins

Our website has several security plugins installed to help us keep the bad-bots at bay. Websites are constantly targeted with malicious scripts, DDOS attacks, malware, spam & a handful of other harmful processes. We proactively mitigate these attacks outlined above by the security software installed on our web hosting server, via Cloudflare & by software installed directly on our site.
