General

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the federal data protection provisions (Data Protection Act, DPA), every person is entitled to protection of their privacy as well as protection against misuse of their personal data. The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

In cooperation with our hosting providers, we endeavor to protect the databases as well as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or falsification.

We point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

By using this website, you agree to the collection, processing, and use of data in accordance with the following description. This website can generally be visited without registration. Data such as pages accessed or names of files accessed, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes, without this data being directly related to your person. Insofar as personal data (for example name, address, or e-mail addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis where possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit 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 storage, disclosure, procurement, deletion, retention, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. If and insofar as the EU GDPR is applicable, we also process personal data on the following legal bases in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) GDPR:
lit. a) Processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.
lit. b) Processing of personal data for the performance of a contract with the data subject and for the implementation of corresponding pre-contractual measures.
lit. c) Processing of personal data to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable EU law or the law of a country in which the GDPR is wholly or partially applicable.
lit. d) Processing of personal data to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
lit. f) Processing of personal data to safeguard our legitimate interests or those of third parties, provided that the fundamental freedoms and rights and interests of the data subject do not prevail. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, enforcement of our own legal claims, and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for the duration required for the respective purpose or purposes. In the case of longer retention obligations due to statutory and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict processing accordingly.

 

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 the user is using the website. Cookies make it possible, in particular, to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of the pages, analyze behavior patterns of page usage, and also to make our offering more user-friendly. Cookies remain stored beyond the end of a browser session and can be retrieved again when the page is visited again. If you do not wish this, you should set your Internet browser so that it refuses to accept cookies.

A general objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can be declared for a large number of services, especially tracking, via the US site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. In addition, cookies can be stored by disabling them in the browser settings. Please note that in this case not all functions of this online offering may be usable.

 

With SSL/TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser address line changes 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.

 

Server log files

The provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
Browser type and browser version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of the server request

This data cannot be assigned to specific persons. This data is not merged with other data sources. We reserve the right to subsequently check this data if we become aware of specific indications of illegal use.

 

Third-party services

This website may use Google Maps to embed maps, Google Invisible reCAPTCHA to protect against bots and spam, and YouTube to embed videos.

These services of the American Google LLC use cookies, among other things, which results in data being transferred to Google in the USA, whereby we assume that no personal tracking takes place in this context solely through the use of our website.

Google has committed itself to ensuring adequate data protection in accordance with the US-European and US-Swiss Privacy Shield.

Further information can be found in Google’s privacy policy.

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

 

Newsletter

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

Storage of the IP address

Our comment function stores the IP addresses of users who submit comments. Since we do not check comments on our site before they are published, we need this data in order to be able to take action against the author in the event of legal violations such as insults or propaganda.

 

Subscribing to comments

As a user of the site, you can subscribe to comments after registering. You will receive a confirmation e-mail to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address. You can unsubscribe from this function at any time via a link in the information e-mails.

 

Rights of the data subject

Right to confirmation
Every data subject has the right to request confirmation from the operator of the website as to whether personal data concerning them is being processed. If you wish to exercise this right of confirmation, you can contact the data protection officer at any time.

 

Right of access

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to obtain, at any time and free of charge, information from the operator of this website about the data stored about their person and a copy of this information. Furthermore, information may be provided, where applicable, about the following: purposes of processing; categories of personal data processed; recipients to whom the personal data has been disclosed or will be disclosed; if possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period; the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of personal data concerning them or restriction of processing by the controller or a right to object to such processing; the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; where the personal data is not collected from the data subject, any available information as to its source.
In addition, the data subject has the right to be informed whether personal data has been transferred to a third country or to an international organization. Where this is the case, the data subject also has the right to obtain information about the appropriate safeguards relating to the transfer.
If you wish to exercise this right of access, you may contact our data protection officer at any time.

 

Right to rectification

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the data subject has the right, taking into account the purposes of processing, to request completion of incomplete personal data—including by means of a supplementary statement.
If you wish to exercise this right to rectification, you may contact our data protection officer at any time.

 

Right to erasure

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request from the controller of this website the immediate erasure of personal data concerning them, provided that one of the following reasons applies and processing is no longer necessary:
The personal data was collected for purposes or otherwise processed for which it is no longer necessary.
The data subject withdraws consent on which the processing was based and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
The data subject objects to the processing for reasons arising from their particular situation, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing; or the data subject objects to the processing in the case of direct marketing and related profiling.
The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
Erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of the Member States to which the controller is subject.
The personal data was collected in relation to services of the information society offered directly to a child.
If one of the above reasons applies and you wish to request the erasure of personal data stored by the operator of this website, you may contact our data protection officer at any time. The data protection officer of this website will ensure that the erasure request is complied with without delay.

 

Right to restriction of processing

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request the restriction of processing from the controller of this website if one of the following conditions is met: The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.

The processing is unlawful, and the data subject objects to the erasure of the personal data and requests the restriction of the use of the personal data instead.

The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject needs it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims. The data subject has objected to processing for reasons arising from their particular situation, and it has not yet been determined whether the controller’s legitimate grounds override those of the data subject.

If one of the above conditions is met, you may contact our data protection officer at any time to request the restriction of processing of personal data by the operator of this website. The data protection officer of this website will arrange for the restriction of processing.

 

Right to data portability

A right to object

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them.

In the event of an objection, the operator of this website will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
To exercise your right to object, you may contact the data protection officer of this website directly.

 

Right to withdraw a data protection consent

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

Disclaimer

All information on our website has been carefully checked. We strive to ensure that the information we provide is up to date, correct, and complete. Nevertheless, the occurrence of errors cannot be completely ruled out, so we cannot assume any liability for the completeness, accuracy, and timeliness of the information, including information of a journalistic-editorial nature. Liability claims relating to material or non-material damage caused by the use or non-use of the information provided or by the use of incorrect and incomplete information are generally excluded.

Use of this website and access to it is at the visitor’s own risk. The publisher, its customers, or partners are not responsible for damages, such as direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages allegedly caused by visiting this website, and therefore assume no liability for such damages.

The publisher also assumes no responsibility or liability for the content and availability of third-party websites that can be reached via external links from this website.

Google Maps

This website uses the Google Maps service. This enables us to display interactive maps directly on the website and allows you to conveniently use the map function. By visiting the website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether no user account exists.

If you are logged into Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not want your data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research, and/or tailoring its website to user needs.

Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website.

You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles; to exercise this right you must contact Google. Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by Google, as well as further information on your rights and settings options for protecting your privacy, can be found at: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

Google Ads

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you reached our website via an ad placed by Google, Google Ads will set a cookie on your computer. The cookie for conversion tracking 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 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 therefore cannot be tracked across the websites of Ads customers. The information obtained with the help of 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 tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.

If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can refuse the setting of a cookie required for this—for example, by a browser setting that generally disables 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 want measurement data to be collected. If you delete all your cookies in the browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.

 

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the controller responsible for data processing on this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, data processing by Google Analytics is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereinafter referred to as “Google”.

The statistics obtained enable us to 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 via a user ID. If you have a Google user account, you can deactivate the 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 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not 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 shortened form so that they cannot be linked to a specific person. If the data collected about you can be assigned to a person, this is immediately excluded and the personal data is deleted immediately.

Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address 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 further services related to website and Internet usage to the website operator. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software settings; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available under the following link: Disable Google Analytics.

In addition, you can prevent the use of Google Analytics by clicking on this link: Disable Google Analytics. This will store a so-called opt-out cookie on your device, which prevents the processing of personal data by Google Analytics. Please note that if you delete all cookies on your device, these opt-out cookies will also be deleted, i.e. you must set the opt-out cookies again if you wish to continue preventing this form of data collection. The opt-out cookies are set per browser and computer/device and must therefore be activated separately for each browser, computer, or other device.

 

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense on this website. This is an advertising program of Google Inc. In Europe, Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. Google AdSense enables us to place ads on this website that are relevant to our topic.

Google AdSense uses cookies to place ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads multiple times. Via a cookie ID, Google records which ads are displayed in which browser and can thus prevent them from being displayed multiple times. In addition, Google AdSense can use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that are related to ad impressions.

This is the case, for example, when a user sees a Google Ads ad and later visits the advertiser’s website with the same browser and purchases something there. According to Google, Google Ads cookies do not contain any personal information.

By using the marketing tools, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to Google’s server.

By integrating Google Ads, Google receives the information that you have accessed the relevant part of our website or clicked on an ad from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can associate the visit with your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in, it is possible that Google may obtain and store your IP address.

You can prevent participation in this tracking procedure in various ways:

  • by adjusting your browser software accordingly; in particular, suppressing third-party cookies means that you will not receive ads from third parties;

  • by disabling conversion-tracking cookies by setting your browser so that cookies from the domain “www. googleadservices.com”, https://adssettings.google.com, are blocked, whereby this setting is deleted when you delete your cookies;

  • by disabling interest-based advertising from the providers who are part of the self-regulatory campaign “About Ads” via the link https://www.aboutads.info/choices, whereby this setting is deleted when you delete your cookies;

  • by permanently disabling it in your browsers Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Google Chrome via the link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin.

  • We point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this offering to their full extent.

The legal basis for processing your data is a balancing of interests, according to which no overriding interests on your part oppose the above-described processing of your personal data (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR). Further information about Google Ads can be found at https://ads.google.com/intl/de_DE/home/, and about Google’s privacy policy in general at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
