The live server uses https://letsencrypt.org to provide secure, HTTPS connections. Every 3 months, the certificates expire and must be renewed. Ideally this is done by a cronjob, however due to Issue #114 this is not working at the moment. The procedure to renew the certificate is:

Stop the live server:
```
cd tq_website
docker-compose stop
```
Renew certificates:
```
certbot renew
```
Start the live server again:
```
docker-compose up -d
```
Check the logs and make sure everything is running as expected.
Enjoy a cup of coffee.
