General / Introduction:

Pursuant to Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the federal data protection provisions (Federal Act on Data Protection, FADP), every individual is entitled to the protection of their privacy and to safeguarding against the misuse of their personal data. The operators of this site take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We handle your personal data confidentially and in full compliance with applicable data protection laws and with this Privacy Policy.

In collaboration with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases as effectively as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or tampering.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.

By using this website, you agree to the collection, processing, and use of data as described below. You can generally visit this site without registering. Data such as the pages accessed or the names of requested files, as well as the date and time, are stored on the server for statistical purposes, without being directly linked to your person. Whenever personal data (for example, name, address, or email address) are collected on our pages, this is done, wherever possible, on a voluntary basis. These data will not be shared with third parties without your explicit consent.

Processing of Personal Data:

Personal data are all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. A “data subject” is any individual about whom personal data are processed. “Processing” encompasses any handling of personal data, regardless of the means or methods used, in particular the collection, storage, disclosure, acquisition, deletion, retention, alteration, destruction, and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. Where and to the extent the EU GDPR applies, we also process personal data on the following legal bases in conjunction with Article 6(1) GDPR:
a) Processing of personal data based on the data subject’s consent.
b) Processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract with the data subject or for pre‑contractual measures at the data subject’s request.
c) Processing of personal data necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under EU law or under the law of a country in which the GDPR is fully or partially applicable.
d) Processing of personal data necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
f) Processing of personal data necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, provided that such interests are not overridden by the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our commercial interests, the operation of our website, information security, enforcement of legal claims, and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfill the respective purpose or purposes. Where statutory or other mandatory retention obligations impose a longer retention period, we accordingly restrict further processing.

Cookies:

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that allow specific, user‑related information to be stored on the user’s device while the website is being used. In particular, cookies enable us to determine how often the pages are accessed and how many users visit them, to analyze usage patterns, and to make our offering more user‑friendly. Cookies remain stored beyond the end of a browser session and can be retrieved when the site is revisited. If you do not wish this, you should configure your web browser to refuse cookies.

With SSL/TLS encryption:

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content—such as inquiries you send to us as the site operator—this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize a secure connection by the change in your browser’s address bar from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock icon in your browser’s toolbar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, 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, provided by the US-based Google LLC, use cookies, resulting in data being transmitted to Google in the United States. We assume that, in this context, the mere use of our website does not constitute any personal tracking.

Google has committed to ensuring adequate data protection in accordance with the US–EU and US–Swiss Privacy Shield frameworks.

For further information, please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy.

When you submit an inquiry to us via the contact form, the information you provide—including your contact details—will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your request and in case of any follow‑up questions. We will not share these data without your consent.

Right to Erasure (Right to Be Forgotten)

Any data subject whose personal data are being processed has the right to request from the controller of this website the immediate deletion of personal data concerning them, provided that one of the following grounds applies and the processing is no longer necessary:

  • The personal data were collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which they are no longer necessary.
  • The data subject withdraws the consent on which the processing was based, and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • The data subject objects to processing on grounds relating to their particular situation, and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing; or the data subject objects to processing for direct marketing purposes, including profiling.
  • The personal data have been unlawfully processed.
  • The erasure of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union law or the law of Member States to which the controller is subject.

  • The processing is unlawful, the data subject objects to the erasure of their personal data and instead requests the restriction of its use.
  • The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject requires them for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
    The data subject has objected to processing on grounds relating to their particular situation, and it is not yet clear whether the controller’s legitimate interests override those of the data subject.

If one of the above conditions is met, you may at any time contact our Data Protection Officer to request that the processing of personal data by the operator of this website be restricted. The Data Protection Officer of this website will ensure that processing is restricted.

Right to Data Portability

Right to Object

Any data subject whose personal data are being processed has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of their personal data.
In the event of such an objection, the operator of this website will no longer process the personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or if the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
To exercise your right to object, you may contact the Data Protection Officer of this website directly at any time.

Right to Withdraw Consent under Data Protection Law

Every data subject whose personal data are being processed has the right to withdraw their consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
