General Note

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the data protection provisions of the Federal Act (Data Protection Act, DPA), every person has the right to protection of their privacy and to 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 legal data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to protect databases as well 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 by e-mail) may have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.

By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing, and use of data as described below. This website can basically be visited without registration. During this, data such as the pages accessed or the names of the files retrieved, date, and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being directly related to your person. Personal data, in particular name, address, or email address, is collected voluntarily as far as possible. Without your consent, there will be no transfer of data to third parties.

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 primarily serves to store information about a user during or after their visit within an online offer. The stored data may include, for example, language settings on a website, the login status, a shopping cart, or the position where a video was watched. We also include other technologies that fulfill the same functions as cookies (e.g., when user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also known as "user IDs").

The following types of cookies and functions are distinguished:

  • Temporary cookies (also: session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online offer and closed their browser.

  • Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after closing the browser. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content displayed directly when the user revisits a website. Likewise, user interests that are used for reach measurement or marketing purposes can be stored in such a cookie.

  • First-party cookies: First-party cookies are set by us ourselves.

  • Third-party cookies (also: third-party cookies): Third-party cookies are mainly used by advertisers (so-called third parties) to process user information.

  • Necessary (also: essential or strictly necessary) cookies: Cookies can be strictly necessary for the operation of a website (e.g., to save logins or other user inputs or for security reasons).

  • Statistics, marketing, and personalization cookies: Furthermore, cookies are usually also used in connection with reach measurement and when a user's interests or behavior (e.g., viewing certain content, using functions, etc.) are stored in a user profile on individual websites. Such profiles serve to display content to users that corresponds to their potential interests. This process is also referred to as "tracking," i.e., tracking potential user interests. If we deploy cookies or "tracking" technologies, we will inform you separately in our privacy policy or as part of obtaining consent.

Notes on Legal Bases: The legal basis on which we process your personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask you for consent. If this is the case and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for processing your data is the declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed through cookies is processed based on our legitimate interests (e.g., in the operational management of our online offering and its improvement) or, where the use of cookies is necessary, to fulfill our contractual obligations.

Storage Duration: If we do not provide you with explicit information about the storage duration of permanent cookies (e.g., as part of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage duration may be up to two years.

General Notes on Withdrawal and Objection (Opt-Out): Depending on whether processing is based on consent or legal authorization, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time or to object to the processing of your data by cookie technologies (collectively referred to as "opt-out"). You can initially declare your objection via your browser settings, e.g., by disabling the use of cookies (which may limit the functionality of our online offer). An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be expressed using various services, especially in the case of tracking, via the websites https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices..... In addition, you can receive further objection notices regarding the services and cookies used.

Processing of Cookie Data Based on Consent: We implement a cookie consent management process in which user consents to the use of cookies, or the processing and providers mentioned in the cookie consent management process are obtained, managed, and can be withdrawn by the users. In this context, the consent declaration is stored so that it does not have to be repeated, allowing us to prove consent as required by law. The storage can occur server-side and/or in a cookie (so-called opt-in cookie, or using comparable technologies) to assign consent to a user or their device. Subject to individual information regarding the providers of cookie management services, the following notes apply: The duration of consent storage may be up to two years. In this context, a pseudonymous user identifier is created and stored with the time of consent, information about the scope of consent (e.g., which categories of cookies and/or service providers) and the browser, system, and device used.

  • Processed Data Types: Usage data (e.g., visited websites, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses).

  • Affected Persons: Users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services).

  • Legal Bases: Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a. GDPR), legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR).

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 inquiries you send us as site operators. An encrypted connection is recognized by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

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

Privacy Policy for Server Log Files

The provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files that your browser transmits to us automatically. This includes:

  • Browser type and browser version

  • Operating system used

  • Referrer URL

  • Hostname of the accessing computer

  • Time of the server request

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

Third-Party Services

This website may use Google Services, Google Invisible reCAPTCHA for protection against bots and spam, and YouTube or Vimeo for embedding videos.

These services from the American company Google LLC use cookies, and consequently, data is transmitted to Google in the USA, assuming that no personal tracking occurs solely through the use of our website.

Google is committed to providing an adequate level of data protection in accordance with the American-European and American-Swiss Privacy Shield.

More information can be found in the Google Privacy Policy.
