Log files

Housing Disrepair Compensation follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites — all hosting companies do this as part of hosting services’ analytics. The information collected includes 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 analysing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.
