General note

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 sites 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 data protection declaration.

In collaboration with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases as best as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or forgery.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating via email) can 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, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being directly related to you personally. Personal data, in particular name, address or email address, is collected on a voluntary basis wherever possible. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Processing of personal data

Personal data is all information that relates to a specific 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 storage, disclosure, procurement, deletion, storage, modification, destruction and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. Furthermore, to the extent and to the extent that the EU GDPR is applicable, we process personal data in accordance with the following legal bases in connection with Art. 6 Para. 1 GDPR:

lit. a) Processing of personal data with the consent of the person concerned.
lit. b) Processing of personal data to fulfill a contract with the data subject and to carry out corresponding pre-contractual measures.
lit. c) Processing of personal data to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under any applicable EU law or under any applicable law of a country in which the GDPR applies in whole or in part.
lit. d) Processing of personal data to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
lit. f) Processing of personal data to protect the legitimate interests of us or third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms and rights as well as the interests of the data subject outweigh this. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for the period necessary for the respective purpose or purposes. If retention obligations last longer due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we will restrict processing accordingly.

Rights of data subjects

Every data subject has the following rights:

Right to information - Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to receive free information about the personal data stored about them and a copy of this information.

Right to rectification - Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request the immediate correction of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the data subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, taking into account the purposes of the processing.

Right to deletion - Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request that the personal data concerning him or her be deleted immediately, under certain conditions.

Right to restriction of processing - Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request that processing be restricted under certain conditions.

Right to object - Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning them for reasons arising from their particular situation.

Right to data portability - Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

Privacy Policy for Cookies

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that make it possible to store specific user-related information on the user's device while they use the website. Cookies make it possible, in particular, to determine the frequency of use and number of users of the pages, to analyze page usage behavior, but also to make our offering more customer-friendly. Cookies remain stored at the end of a browser session and can be accessed again when you visit the site again. If you do not want this, you should set your internet browser so that it refuses to accept cookies.

A general objection to the use of cookies used for online marketing purposes can be made for a large number of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the US website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU side http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ be explained. Furthermore, the storage of cookies can be achieved by switching them off in the browser settings. Please note that not all functions of this online offer may then be able to be used.

Privacy policy for SSL/TLS encryption

This website uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser's address line changing from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Third Party Services

This website only uses Google Maps for embedding maps, Google Invisible reCAPTCHA for protection against bots and spam, and YouTube for embedding videos.

These services from the American Google LLC use, among other things, cookies and as a result data is transferred to Google in the USA, although we assume that no personal tracking takes place solely through the use of our website.
Google is committed to ensuring adequate data protection in accordance with the American-European and American-Swiss Privacy Shield.

Further information can be found in the Google privacy policy.

Data protection declaration for contact form

If you send us inquiries using the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us in order to process the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

Google Ads

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you have reached our website via an ad placed by Google, Google Ads will set a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set 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 on 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 this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked via 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, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.

If you do not want to take part in tracking, you can refuse the necessary setting of a cookie - for example by using a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies or setting your browser so that cookies from the domain "googleleadservices.com" are blocked.

Please note that you are not allowed to delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want measurement data to be recorded. If you have deleted all of your cookies in your browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.

Using Matomo

This website uses Matomo (formerly Piwik), an open source software for the statistical analysis of visitor access. Anonymized information about the use of the Internet offering is stored on a server in Switzerland.

The IP address is anonymized immediately after processing and before storage.

We use a number of other anonymization techniques to ensure that no personal information is collected.

Further explanations of the cookies that Matomo creates can be found at the following page: https://matomo.org/faq/general/faq_146/

Changes

We may amend this privacy policy at any time without prior notice. The current version published on our website applies. To the extent that the Privacy Policy is part of an agreement with you, in the event of an update, we will inform you of the change by email or other appropriate means.
