When you use this website, various personal data may be collected. This Privacy Policy explains which data we collect, for what purposes, and how the processing takes place.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet, for example by email, may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

If you make a justified deletion request or withdraw your consent, your data will be deleted unless statutory retention obligations or other lawful grounds prevent deletion.

Legal basis for processing

We process personal data in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP). Depending on the circumstances, processing may be based in particular on your consent, on the necessity to perform or initiate a contract, on legal obligations, or on overriding private or public interests and other grounds permitted under Swiss law.

for example IT providers, hosting providers, or other service providers, where necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy,
to perform a contract, to comply with legal obligations, or where otherwise permitted by law.

Withdrawal of consent

If processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future. The withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

Your rights

Subject to applicable legal requirements, you may request access to your personal data, have inaccurate personal data corrected, request deletion, and, where applicable, object to processing or request restriction of processing.

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

If we transfer personal data to recipients outside Switzerland, we do so in accordance with the applicable requirements for international data transfers, for example on the basis of an adequacy decision, appropriate contractual safeguards, or another lawful basis under Swiss data protection law.
