Privacy Policy

GENERAL COUNSEL

In accordance with Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the Swiss Federal Data Protection Act (DSG), every person has the right to privacy and protection against the misuse of their personal data. The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We process your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection laws and this Privacy Policy.

In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to provide the best possible protection for our databases against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or tampering.

We would like to point out that transmitting data over the Internet (for example, when communicating via email) may involve security risks. It is not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.

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 the pages viewed, the name of the file accessed, and the date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without being directly linked to you. Personal data—in particular, your name, address, or email address—is collected on a voluntary basis whenever possible. Your data will not be shared with third parties without your consent.

Personal data processing

Personal data refers to any information relating to a specific or identifiable individual. A data subject is a person whose personal data is being processed. Processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the means or procedures used, including, in particular, the storage, disclosure, provision, deletion, retention, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. In addition, to the extent that the EU GDPR applies, we process personal data in accordance with the following legal bases under Article 6(1) of the GDPR:

· Subparagraph (a). Processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.

· Subparagraph (b). Processing of personal data to fulfill a contract with the data subject and to carry out the corresponding precontractual measures.

· Subparagraph (c). Processing of personal data to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject under any applicable European law or under any applicable law of a country in which the GDPR is fully or partially applicable.

· Subparagraph (d). Processing of personal data to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.

· Subparagraph (e). Processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

· Subparagraph (f). Processing of personal data to protect our legitimate interests or those of third parties, provided that the fundamental rights and freedoms, as well as the interests, of the data subject do not take precedence. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the protection of our own rights, and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the respective purpose(s). In the event of longer-term retention requirements resulting from legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict processing accordingly.
