General Notice
Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the federal data protection regulations (Data Protection Act, DSG), every person has the right to protection of their privacy and protection against misuse of their personal data. The operators of these websites take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
In cooperation with our hosting providers, we endeavor to protect the databases as best as possible from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or falsification.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.
By using this website, you agree to the collection, processing, and use of data as described below. This website can generally be visited without registration. Data such as pages accessed or the name of the file accessed, the date, and the time of access are stored on the server for statistical purposes without being directly related to you. Personal data, in particular your name, address, or email address, is collected on a voluntary basis wherever possible. Data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.
Processing of Personal Data
Personal data is all information relating to an identified or identifiable person. A data subject is a person about whom personal data is processed. Processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular the retention, disclosure, acquisition, deletion, storage, alteration, destruction, and use of personal data.
We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. Furthermore, to the extent and insofar as the EU GDPR is applicable, we process personal data in accordance with the following legal bases in connection with Art. 6 (1) GDPR:
Consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR) - The data subject has given their consent to the processing of personal data concerning them for one or more specific purposes.
Performance of a contract and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR) - Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or for taking steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.
Legal obligation (Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR) - Processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.
Protection of vital interests (Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR) - Processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. Legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) - Processing is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, unless the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, which require the protection of personal data, prevail.
Application procedure as a pre-contractual or contractual relationship (Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR) - If, as part of the application process, special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 (1) GDPR (e.g., health data, such as severe disability status or ethnic origin) are requested from applicants so that the controller or the data subject can exercise their rights under labor law and social security and social protection law and fulfill their obligations in this regard, their processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (b) GDPR; in the case of protecting the vital interests of applicants or other persons, in accordance with Art. 9 (2) (c) GDPR. GDPR or for the purposes of preventive healthcare or occupational medicine, for assessing an employee's ability to work, for medical diagnostics, care or treatment in the health or social sector, or for the administration of systems and services in the health or social sector pursuant to Art. 9 (2) (h) GDPR. In the case of voluntary consent-based disclosure of special categories of data, their processing is based on Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR.
We process
Personal data is stored for the period necessary for the respective purpose(s). In the case of longer retention periods due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict processing accordingly.
Relevant legal bases
In accordance with Art. 13 GDPR, we inform you of the legal basis for our data processing. If the legal basis is not stated in the privacy policy, the following applies: The legal basis for obtaining consent is Art. 6 (1) (a) and Art. 7 GDPR; the legal basis for processing to fulfill our services and implement contractual measures as well as to respond to inquiries is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR; the legal basis for processing to fulfill our legal obligations is Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR; and the legal basis for processing to protect our legitimate interests is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. In the event that the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Security Measures
We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs, and the nature, scope, circumstances, and purposes of the processing, as well as the different probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
These measures include, in particular, safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data, as well as access to it, input, transmission, securing its availability, and segregation. Furthermore, we have established procedures that ensure the exercise of data subject rights, the deletion of data, and responses to data threats. Furthermore, we consider the protection of personal data right from the development or selection of hardware, software, and processes in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design, and through data protection-friendly default settings.
Transfer of personal data
As part of our processing of personal data, it may happen that the data is transmitted to or disclosed to other bodies, companies, legally independent organizational units, or individuals. Recipients of this data may include, for example, service providers commissioned with IT tasks or providers of services and content integrated into a website. In such cases, we comply with legal requirements and, in particular, conclude appropriate contracts or agreements with the recipients of your data that serve to protect your data.
Data processing in third countries
If we process data in a third country (i.e., outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if the processing takes place as part of the use of third-party services or the disclosure or transmission of data to other individuals, bodies, or companies, this will only be done in accordance with legal requirements.
Subject to express consent or contractually or legally required transmission, we only process data in third countries with a recognized level of data protection, a contractual obligation through so-called standard protection clauses of the EU Commission, or if certifications or binding internal data protection regulations are in place (Articles 44 to 49 GDPR, EU Commission information page: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection_de).
Privacy Policy for Cookies
This website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that contain data from visited websites or domains and are stored by a browser on the user's computer. A cookie is primarily used to store information about a user during or after their visit to an online service. The stored information may include, for example, the language settings on a website, the login status, a shopping cart, or the location where a video was watched. The term "cookies" also includes other technologies that perform the same functions as cookies (e.g., when user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also known as "user IDs").
The following cookie types and functions are distinguished:
Temporary cookies (also: session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online offering and closed their browser.
Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after the browser is closed. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content can be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. Likewise, the interests of users used for reach measurement or marketing purposes can be stored in such a cookie.
First-party cookies: First-party cookies are set by us.
Third-party cookies: Third-party cookies are primarily used by advertisers (so-called third parties) to process user information.
Necessary (also: essential or absolutely necessary) cookies: Cookies can be absolutely necessary for the operation of a website (e.g., to save logins or other user inputs or for security reasons).
Statistical, marketing, and personalization cookies: Cookies are also generally used for reach measurement purposes, as well as when a user's interests or behavior (e.g., viewing certain content, using features, etc.) on individual websites are stored in a user profile. Such profiles are used, for example, to show users content that corresponds to their potential interests. This process is also referred to as "tracking," i.e., tracking users' potential interests. If we use cookies or "tracking" technologies, we will inform you separately in our privacy policy or when obtaining your consent.
Notes on legal bases: The legal basis on which we process your personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask for your consent. If this applies and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for processing your data is your declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed using cookies will be processed based on our legitimate interests (e.g., in the commercial operation and improvement of our online offering) or, if the use of cookies is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations.
Storage period: Unless we provide you with explicit information about the storage period of permanent cookies (e.g., as part of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage period can be up to two years.
General information on revocation and objection (opt-out): Depending on whether the processing is based on consent or legal permission, you have the option at any time to revoke your consent or to object to the processing of your data using cookie technologies (collectively referred to as "opt-out"). You can initially declare your objection using your browser settings, e.g., by deactivating the use of cookies (although this may also limit the functionality of our online offering). An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be declared using a variety of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the websites https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. You can also obtain further information about objections within the information on the service providers and cookies used.
Processing of cookie data based on consent: We use a cookie consent management procedure, within which users' consent to the use of cookies, or to the processing activities and providers specified in the cookie consent management procedure, can be obtained, managed, and revoked by users. The declaration of consent is saved so that it does not have to be requested again and so that consent can be proven in accordance with legal requirements. The storage can take place on the server side and/or in a cookie (so-called opt-in cookie, or using comparable technologies) in order to be able to assign the consent to a user or their device. Subject to individual information about the providers of cookie management services, the following information applies: The consent can be stored for up to two years. A pseudonymous user identifier is created and stored with the time of consent, information on the scope of the consent (e.g., which categories of cookies and/or service providers), as well as the browser, system, and device used.
ert.
Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g., websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses).
Data subjects: Users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services).
Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR), Legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).
Privacy policy for contact form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this data without your consent.
Paid Services
To provide paid services, we request additional data, such as payment details, in order to process your order. We store this data in our systems until the statutory retention periods have expired.
Google Ads
This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you have reached our website via an ad placed by Google, Google Ads will place a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is placed when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to that page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of Ads customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can refuse the setting of a cookie required for this purpose – for example, by setting your browser to generally deactivate the automatic setting of cookies or by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain "googleleadservices.com".
Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not wish to have measurement data recorded. If you have deleted all your cookies in your browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.
Privacy Policy for Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the controller for data processing on this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, Google Analytics data processing is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereinafter referred to as "Google."
Using the statistics obtained, we can improve our offering and make it more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics for cross-device analysis of visitor flows, which is carried out using a user ID. If you have a Google user account, you can deactivate cross-device analysis of your usage in the settings there under "My Data," "Personal Data."
The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. We would like to point out that on this website, Google Analytics has been extended by the code "_anonymizeIp();" to ensure anonymized collection of IP addresses. This means that IP addresses are processed in a shortened form, thus preventing any personal reference. If the data collected about you is personally identifiable, this is immediately excluded and the personal data is deleted immediately.
Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services related to website activity and internet usage.
Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that if you do this, you may not be able to use all of the functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: Disable Google Analytics.
You can also prevent the use of Google Analytics by clicking on this link: Disable Google Analytics. This will store an opt-out cookie on your data storage device, which prevents Google Analytics from processing personal data. Please note that if you delete all cookies on your device, these opt-out cookies will also be deleted. This means that you must set the opt-out cookies again if you wish to continue to prevent this form of data collection. The opt-out cookies are set for each browser and computer/device and must therefore be activated separately for each browser, computer, or other device.

In doing so, we process inventory data (e.g., customer master data such as names or addresses), contact data (e.g., email, telephone numbers), content data (e.g., text entries, etc.), contract data (e.g., subject matter of the contract, term), payment data (e.g., bank details, payment history), usage and metadata (e.g., in the context of evaluating and measuring the success of marketing measures). Those affected include our customers, interested parties, their customers, users, website visitors, employees, and third parties. The purpose of the processing is to provide contractual services, billing, and our customer service. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (contractual services) and Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (analysis, statistics, optimization, security measures). We process data that is necessary to establish and fulfill the contractual services and indicate the necessity of providing it. Disclosure to external parties only occurs if it is required within the scope of an order. When processing the data provided to us within the scope of an order, we act in accordance with the client's instructions and the statutory requirements for contract processing pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR and do not process the data for any purposes other than those specified in the order.
We delete the data after statutory warranty and similar obligations have expired. The necessity of retaining the data is reviewed at irregular intervals. In the case of statutory archiving obligations, deletion occurs after these have expired.
