General Notice

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the data protection regulations of the Swiss Confederation (Data Protection Act, FADP), every person is entitled to the protection of their privacy and to guard against misuse of their data. The operators of this website take the security of your data very seriously. We treat your data confidentially and follow the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.

In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases as much as possible from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or falsification. You should note that data transmission on the Internet (e.B. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.

Using this website, you consent to collecting, processing, and using data by the following description. In principle, this website can be visited without registration. Data such as pages accessed or names of accessed files, date, and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes, without this data being directly associated with you. Insofar as personal data (e.g., name, address, or email addresses) are collected on our pages, this is always done voluntarily as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Processing of personal data

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable person. A data subject is a person about whom personal data is processed. The processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, particularly the storage, disclosure, procurement, deletion, storage, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.

We process personal data by following the Swiss data protection law. Insofar as the EU GDPR is applicable, we also process personal data on the following legal bases in connection with Article 6 (GDPR):

lit. a) Processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.

Lit. b) Processing personal data to perform a contract with the data subject and implement corresponding pre-contractual measures.

lit.c) Processing of personal data to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable EU law or under the applicable law in which the GDPR is applicable in whole or in part.

Lit. d) Processing personal data to safeguard the data subject’s vital interests of another natural person.

They are lit. f) Processing personal data to safeguard the legitimate interests of third parties unless the data subject’s fundamental freedoms and rights and interests prevail. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the enforcement of our legal claims, and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for the duration necessary for individual purposes. In the case of longer-term retention obligations due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict the processing accordingly.

Privacy Policy for Cookies

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that make it possible to store specific information related to the user on the user’s terminal 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, to analyze behavior patterns of site use, and also to make our offer more customer-friendly. Cookies remain stored beyond the end of a browser session and can be retrieved when you revisit the site. If you do not want this, you should set your Internet browser to refuse to accept cookies.

A general objection to cookies for online marketing purposes can be declared for a large part of the services, particularly in tracking, via the US site https://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site https://www.youronlinechoices.com. In addition, the storage of cookies can be achieved by deactivating them in the browser settings. Please note that not all online offer functions can be used in this case.

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. B requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection because the browser’s address line changes from “HTTP://” to “HTTPS://” and 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 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, among other things, cookies and data are thereby transmitted to Google in the USA, whereby we assume that in this context, no personal tracking takes place solely through the use of our website. Google is committed to ensuring adequate data protection by the US-European and US-Swiss Privacy Shields. For more information, see Google’s Privacy Policy.

Privacy Policy for the 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 to process the search and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

Rights of data subjects

Right to confirmation: Every data subject has the right to obtain verification from the website operator about 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 to information: Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to receive information from the operator of this website at any time,  free of charge, about the data stored about them and a copy of this information. In addition, data may be provided about the following

the purposes of the processing

the categories of personal data processed

the recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed

where possible, the envisaged duration of storage of the personal data or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining that period

the existence of a right to rectification or erasure of personal data concerning them, to restriction of processing by the controller, or to object to such processing

the presence of a right to complain about a supervisory authority

if the personal data are not collected from the data subject: all available information on the origin of the data.

In addition, the data subject has the right to be informed whether personal data have been transferred to a third country or an international organization. If this is the case, the data subject shall also have the right to obtain information on the appropriate safeguards connected to the transfer.

If you wish to exercise this right of access, you can contact our data protection officer at any time.

Right to restriction of processing

Any data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right to obtain from the controller of this website the restriction of processing 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; the data subject objects to the erasure of the personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data.

The controller no longer needs the personal data for the processing, but the data subject needs them for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

The data subject has objected to the processing on grounds relating to their particular situation. It has not yet been determined whether the controller’s legitimate interests override those of the data subject.

Suppose one of the above conditions is met. In that case, you can request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by the operator of this website by contacting our data protection officer. The data protection officer of this website will arrange the restriction of the processing.

Right to data portability

Any data subject affected by the processing of personal data has the right to receive the personal data concerning them in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. It also has the right to transfer this data to another controller, provided that the legal requirements are met.

Furthermore, the data subject has the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another controller, to the extent that this is technically feasible and provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of other persons.

To assert the right to data portability, you can contact the data protection officer appointed by the operator of this website.

Right to object

Each data subject shall have the right to object to personal processing data concerning them on grounds relating to their particular situation.

The operator of this website will no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

To exercise your right to object, you can contact the data protection officer of this website directly.

Right to revoke a given data protection consent

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

Agency Services

As part of our contractual services, we process our customers’ data by the data protection regulations of the federal government (Data Protection Act, DSG) and the EU GDPR.

In doing so, we process inventory data (e.B., customer master data such as names or addresses), contact data (e.B. email, telephone numbers), content data (e.B. text entries, etc.), contract data (e.B. subject matter of the contract, term), payment data (e.B. bank details, payment history), usage data and metadata (e.B. in the context of the evaluation and success measurement of marketing measures). The persons concerned include our customers, interested parties, users, website visitors or employees, and third parties. The purpose of the processing is to provide contractual services, billing, and customer service. The legal basis for the processing results from Art. 6 para.. 1 lit.b GDPR (contractual services), Art. 6 para.. 1 lit. f GDPR (analysis, statistics, optimization, security measures). We process data necessary to establish and fulfill contractual services and point out the necessity of their disclosure. A transfer to external parties only takes place if this is necessary in the context of an order. When processing the data provided to us in the context of an order, we act by the instructions of the client and the legal requirements of order processing by Art. 28 GDPR. We do not process the data for purposes other than those stated in the order.

We delete the data after the statutory warranty and comparable obligations expire. The necessity of storing the data is checked at irregular intervals. In the case of statutory archiving obligations, the deletion occurs after their expiry. In the case of data that the customer has provided to us as part of an order, we delete the data by the order’s specifications, usually after completion of the order.

Contractual services

We process the data of our contractual partners and interested parties as well as other clients, customers, clients, or contractual partners (uniformly referred to as “contractual partners”) following the data protection regulations of the Federal Data Protection Act (FADP) and the EU GDPR by Art. 6 para. One lit. b. GDPR to provide them with our contractual or pre-contractual services. The data processed in this context, type, scope, and purpose and the necessity of their processing result from the underlying contractual relationship.

The processed data includes master data of our contractual partners (e.B., names and addresses), contact data (e.B., email addresses and telephone numbers), as well as contract data (e.B. services used, contract contents, contract communication, names of contact persons) and payment data (e.B. bank details, payment history).

We generally do not process special categories of personal data unless they are part of an order or contract processing.

We process data necessary to establish and fulfill the contractual services and point out the necessity of their disclosure unless this is obvious to the contractual partners. A transfer to external persons or companies only takes place if necessary within the framework of a contract. When processing data that is made available to us within the scope of an order, we act by the customer’s instructions and by the statutory provisions.

As part of our online services, we may store the IP address and the time of the respective user action. The storage takes place based on our legitimate interests and the users’ interests in protecting against misuse and other unauthorized use. In principle, this data will not be passed on to third parties unless it is necessary to pursue our claims under Art. 6 para. One lit. f. GDPR or there is a legal obligation to do so by Art. 6 para. 1 lit.c. GDPR.

The deletion of the data takes place when the data is no longer required for the fulfillment of contractual or legal due diligence obligations and for the processing of any warranty and comparable obligations, whereby the necessity of storing the data is checked at irregular intervals. In all other respects, the statutory retention obligations apply.
