General Notice

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the Federal Data Protection Act (DSG), every person has the right to privacy protection and protection 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 accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

 

In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to protect databases as best as possible against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or falsification.

 

Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. 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. This website can generally be visited without registration. Data such as pages accessed, file names retrieved, date and time may be stored on the server for statistical purposes, without being directly linked to any specific person. Personal data, in particular name, address or e-mail address, are collected as far as possible on a voluntary basis. No data will 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. Processing means any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular storing, disclosing, acquiring, deleting, saving, altering, destroying and using personal data.

 

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. In all other respects, if and to the extent that the EU GDPR is applicable, we process personal data according to the following legal bases in connection with Art. 6 para. 1 GDPR:

 

Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a. GDPR) – The data subject has given their consent to the processing of personal data relating to them for one or more specific purposes.

Performance of contract and pre-contractual enquiries (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. b GDPR) – Processing is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.

Legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. c GDPR) – Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.

Protection of vital interests (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. d GDPR) – Processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.

Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR) – Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.

Application procedure as a pre-contractual or contractual relationship (Art. 9 para. 2 lit. b GDPR) – Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR (e.g. health data, such as disability status or ethnic origin) are requested from applicants as part of the application process so that the controller or the data subject can exercise rights deriving from employment law and social security and social protection law and fulfil their obligations in this regard, processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 9 para. 2 lit. b GDPR. In the case of protecting vital interests of the applicant or other persons, processing is carried out pursuant to Art. 9 para. 2 lit. c GDPR. For purposes of preventive or occupational medicine, the assessment of an employee’s working capacity, medical diagnosis, care or treatment in the health or social sector, or the management of systems and services in the health or social sector, processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 9 para. 2 lit. h GDPR. Where the disclosure of special categories of data is based on voluntary consent, processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR.

We process personal data for as long as is necessary for the respective purpose or purposes. If longer retention is required due to legal or other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict processing accordingly.

 

 

 

Relevant legal bases

In accordance with Art. 13 GDPR, we inform you of the legal bases of our data processing. Unless the legal basis is specifically mentioned in this privacy policy, the following applies: The legal basis for obtaining consent is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a and Art. 7 GDPR; the legal basis for processing in order to perform our services and carry out contractual measures as well as responding to enquiries is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR; the legal basis for processing in order to comply with our legal obligations is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR; and the legal basis for processing to protect our legitimate interests is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Should processing of personal data be necessary to protect vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

 

 

 

Security measures

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures, in accordance with legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, implementation costs, and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of processing as well as various likelihoods of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk.

 

These measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as the access, input, transfer, securing of availability, and separation of the data itself. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure the exercise of data subjects’ rights, the deletion of data, and responses to threats to the data. In addition, we consider the protection of personal data as early as the development or selection of hardware, software, and processes in line with the principle of data protection by design and by default.

 

 

 

Transfer of personal data

In the course of processing personal data, it may happen that data is transferred to other entities, companies, legally independent organisational units or individuals, or disclosed to them. Recipients of this data may include, for example, service providers tasked with IT responsibilities or providers of services and content integrated within a website. In such cases, we comply with legal requirements and, in particular, enter into appropriate contracts or agreements with the recipients of your data that serve to protect your data.

 

 

 

Data processing in third countries

If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA)), or if processing takes place as part of the use of third-party services or the disclosure or transfer of data to other persons, entities or companies, this is only carried out in accordance with the legal requirements.

 

Subject to explicit consent or contractually or legally required transfer, we process data only in countries with a recognised level of data protection, a contractual obligation ensured by so-called standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission, certification, or binding internal data protection rules (Art. 44 to 49 GDPR, EU Commission information page: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection_de).

 

 

 

Privacy Policy for Cookies

This website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that contain data from visited websites or domains and are stored by a browser on the user's computer. A cookie primarily serves to store information about a user during or after their visit within an online offering. Stored information may include, for example, language settings on a website, login status, a shopping basket, or the position where a video was watched. The term "cookies" also includes other technologies that fulfil the same functions as cookies (e.g. where user details are stored on the basis of pseudonymous online identifiers, also known as "user IDs").

 

The following types and functions of cookies are distinguished:

 

Temporary cookies (also: session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user leaves an online offering and closes their browser.

Permanent cookies: Permanent cookies remain stored even after closing the browser. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content can be displayed directly when the user revisits a website. Similarly, the interests of users used for reach measurement or marketing purposes can be stored in such a cookie.

First-party cookies: First-party cookies are set by ourselves.

Third-party cookies (also: external cookies): Third-party cookies are mainly used by advertisers (so-called third parties) to process user information.

Necessary (also: essential or strictly necessary) cookies: Cookies may be strictly necessary for the operation of a website (e.g. to save logins or other user inputs or for security reasons).

Statistics, marketing and personalisation cookies: Cookies are generally also used to measure reach and to store a user’s interests or behaviour (e.g. viewing certain content, using functions, etc.) on specific webpages in a user profile. Such profiles are used to display content that corresponds to the user’s potential interests. This procedure is also known as "tracking", i.e., monitoring the potential interests of users. If we use cookies or tracking technologies, we will inform you separately in our privacy policy or when obtaining your consent.

Information on legal grounds: The legal basis on which we process your personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask for your consent. If this is the case and you consent to the use of cookies, the processing of your data is based on your stated consent. Otherwise, data processed using cookies is processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. in the business operation of our online offering and its improvement) or, if the use of cookies is necessary, to fulfil our contractual obligations.

 

Storage period: Unless we explicitly inform you of the specific storage duration of permanent cookies (e.g. as part of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage period can be up to two years.

 

General information on withdrawal and objection (opt-out): Depending on whether processing is based on consent or a legal permission, you have the right at any time to withdraw your consent or to object to the processing of your data by cookie technologies (collectively referred to as "opt-out"). You can state your objection initially via your browser settings, for example by disabling the use of cookies (please note this may restrict the functionality of our online offering). An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be declared through various services, especially in the case of tracking, via the websites https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. In addition, you can find further information on objections in the details provided about the service providers and cookies used.

 

Processing of cookie data based on consent: We use a procedure for cookie consent management, within which we obtain users' consent to the use of cookies, or to the processing and providers named in the context of cookie consent management, and users can manage and withdraw their consent. The consent declaration is stored so that it does not have to be requested again and to be able to provide proof of consent in accordance with legal requirements. Storage may be server-side and/or in a cookie (so-called opt-in cookie, or by similar technologies) to assign the consent to a user or device. Unless otherwise stated by individual cookie management service providers, the following applies: the storage period for consent may last up to two years. A pseudonymous user ID is created and stored along with the time of consent, the scope of consent (e.g. which categories of cookies and/or service providers), as well as the browser, system and end device used.

 

Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g. pages visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g. device information, IP addresses).

Data subjects: Users (e.g. visitors to websites, users of online services).

Legal grounds: Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR), Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR).

 

 

Third-party services

This website may use Google Maps for embedding maps, Google Invisible reCAPTCHA for protection against bots and spam, and YouTube for embedding videos.

 

These services of the American Google LLC use cookies among other things, and as a result, data is transferred to Google in the USA. We assume that no personal tracking takes place solely as a result of using our website.

 

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

 

Further information can be found in Google’s privacy policy.

Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, with regard to the purposes of the processing, the data subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary statement.

 

If you wish to exercise this right of rectification, you may contact our Data Protection Officer at any time.

 

 

Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)

 

Any individual whose personal data is processed has the right to request from the controller of this website that the personal data concerning them is deleted without delay, where one of the following grounds applies and as long as processing is not required:

 

The personal data was collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer necessary

The data subject withdraws their consent on which the processing was based, and there is no other legal basis for the processing

The data subject objects to the processing for reasons arising from their particular situation and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to processing for direct marketing purposes and associated profiling

The personal data was processed unlawfully

The deletion of personal data is required to fulfil a legal obligation under Union law or the law of Member States to which the controller is subject.

The personal data were collected in relation to services of the information society offered directly to a child.

If any of the above reasons apply and you wish to request the deletion of personal data held by the operator of this website, you may contact our data protection officer at any time. The data protection officer of this website will ensure your deletion request is promptly fulfilled.

 

 

Right to restriction of processing

 

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request the controller of this website to restrict the 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 refuses 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 processing purposes, but the data subject requires them for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

The data subject has objected to processing for reasons related to their particular situation and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate grounds of the controller outweigh those of the data subject.

If any of the above conditions are met and you wish to request the restriction of personal data held by the operator of this website, you may contact our data protection officer at any time. The data protection officer of this website will ensure that the restriction of processing is implemented.

To exercise the right to data portability, you may contact the data protection officer appointed by the operator of this website at any time.

 

 

Right to object

 

Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right, for reasons arising from their particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of relevant personal data.

 

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

 

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

 

 

Right to withdraw consent under data protection law

 

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