I like data. That is why I add a standalone PHP script which logs all relevant HTTP variables like:

  • Date of visit
  • IP
  • User-agent
  • Request URI
  • Referer

Am I allowed to store all this in non-public text files?
Am I allowed to evaluate the data?

What am I allowed to do with the log files?
Do I have to delete them after some time?
