General Information / Introduction
In accordance with Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the data protection regulations of the federal government (Data Protection Act, DSG), every person is entitled to the protection of their privacy and 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 the databases as much as possible from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or falsification.

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g., communication via email) may have security gaps. A complete protection of data against 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 generally be visited without registration. Data such as pages visited or names of files accessed, date and time are stored for statistical purposes on the server, without these data being directly related to your person. If personal data (e.g., name, address, or email addresses) is collected on our pages, this is done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. These data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent.

Processing of Personal Data
Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable person. A data subject is a person whose personal data is processed. Processing encompasses any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular storage, transmission, acquisition, deletion, retention, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. To the extent that the EU GDPR is applicable, we process personal data also based on the following legal grounds in connection with Article 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 or for the performance of pre-contractual measures.

• lit. c) Processing of personal data to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under EU law or the law of a country where the GDPR is wholly or partially applicable.

• 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 our legitimate interests or those of third parties, unless the basic freedoms and rights of the data subject override these interests. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our business interest in providing our website, information security, the enforcement of legal claims, and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for as long as necessary for the respective purpose(s). In the case of long-term storage obligations under statutory and other obligations to which we are subject, we will restrict the processing accordingly.
