Privacy Policy

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution, the federal data protection guidelines (Data Protection Act, DSG) and the General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union (GDPR), every person has the right to protection of their privacy and protection against misuse of their personal data. We comply with these provisions. Personal data is treated as strictly confidential and is neither sold nor passed on to third parties.

In close cooperation with our hosting providers, we endeavour to protect the databases as best as possible from unauthorized access, loss, misuse or falsification.

When you access our websites, the following data is stored in log files: IP address, date, time, browser request and general information transmitted about the operating system or browser. This usage data forms the basis for statistical, anonymous evaluations so that trends can be identified that we can use to improve our offerings accordingly.

When contacting the provider (for example via contact form or email), the user's details are stored for the purpose of processing the request and in the event that follow-up questions arise.

Integration of third-party services and content It may happen that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites, is integrated into this online offering. This always assumes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") perceive the IP address of the user.

We endeavor to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, we have no influence if the third-party providers save the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. As far as we are aware of this, we will inform users about it.
