+## Logging
+
+Access logs are sent to stdout and error logs to stderr, making them
+available to the container runtime's log collection.
+
+The Apache configuration supports a `dontlog` environment variable. When
+set on a request, that request is excluded from the access log. This is
+useful for health check endpoints that would otherwise fill the logs.
+
+To use it, add a `SetEnvIf` directive in your site configuration:
+
+    SetEnvIf Request_URI "^/ok.txt$" dontlog
+
+This allows `/ok.txt` to serve as a health check endpoint without
+generating access log entries.
