If you put your content on the server then I think you do have access.
According to the headers your server is Apache, so try uploading a file
named ".htaccess" (without the quotes) with the following raw text content:
# Adding the SVG media type and encoding in case they aren't already
AddType image/svg+xml svg svgz
AddEncoding gzip svgz
AddCharset utf-8 .svg
If you want, you don't actually have to rename your files to *.svgz, and
instead just let the server transmit the files using gzip compression
automatically. To get this you can append the following to the .htaccess
file:
# gzip compression.
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
# html, txt, css, js, json, xml, htc:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/css
application/json
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/javascript application/javascript
application/x-javascript
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml application/xml text/x-component
# webfonts and svg:
<FilesMatch "\.(ttf|otf|eot|svg)$" >
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
</FilesMatch>
</IfModule>
To conclude I would like to recommend browsing the following two sites for
some tips & tricks on serving web content:
