General Note

Pursuant to Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the federal data protection provisions (Data Protection Act, DSG), every person has the right to privacy and to protection against the misuse of their personal data. The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat 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 protect our databases from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or tampering.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is technically impossible 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. In general, this website can be visited without registration. In doing so, data such as the pages accessed, the names of the files accessed, and the date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes, without this data being directly linked to you personally. Personal data, in particular your name, address, or email address, is collected on a voluntary basis whenever possible. Data will not be disclosed to third parties without your consent.

Processing of Personal Data

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

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

  • (a) Processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.
  • lit. b) Processing of personal data to fulfill a contract with the data subject and to carry out related pre-contractual measures.
  • lit. c) Processing of personal data to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable EU law or under the applicable law of a country in which the GDPR applies in whole or in part.
  • 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 safeguard our legitimate interests or those of third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms, fundamental rights, and interests of the data subject take precedence. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the enforcement of our own legal claims, and compliance with Swiss law.

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

Privacy Policy for Cookies

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that make it possible to store specific, user-related information on the user’s device while they are using the website. Cookies enable us, in particular, to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of the pages, to analyze user behavior, and to make our website more user-friendly. Cookies remain stored after the end of a browser session and can be retrieved when you visit the site again. If you do not wish this to happen, you should configure your web browser to refuse cookies.

A general objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can be submitted for a wide range of services—especially in the case of tracking—through the U.S. website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ explained. Furthermore, you can prevent cookies from being stored by disabling them in your browser settings. Please note that, in that case, you may not be able to use all the features of this website.

Privacy Policy for the Contact Form

If you submit inquiries to us via the contact form, we will store the information you provide in the form—including the contact information you enter there—for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case we have follow-up questions. We will not share this information without your consent.

Use of Google Maps

This website uses Google Maps. This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to use the map feature conveniently. When you visit the website, Google receives information that you have accessed the corresponding page on our website. This occurs regardless of whether you are logged in to a Google account or do not have a Google account. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly associated with your account. If you do not wish for your data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out before clicking the button. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for advertising, market research, and/or to tailor its website to your needs. Such analysis is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to deliver targeted advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles; to exercise this right, you must contact Google. For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by Google, as well as further information on your rights in this regard and settings options to protect your privacy, please visit: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

Google AdWords

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you arrived at our website via an ad placed by Google, Google AdWords will set a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to that page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Customers are informed of the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.

If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can refuse the cookie required for this purpose—for example, by using a browser setting that generally disables the automatic placement of cookies, or by configuring your browser to block cookies from the domain „googleleadservices.com.“.

Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want your usage data to be tracked. If you have deleted all cookies from your browser, you will need to set the respective opt-out cookie again.

Privacy Policy for Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the data controller for this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, data processing for Google Analytics is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereinafter referred to as «Google.».

The statistics we collect allow us to improve our offerings and make them more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics to analyze visitor traffic across devices, which is done using a user ID. If you have a Google account, you can disable cross-device analysis of your usage in your account settings under «My Data» > «Personal Data.».

The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Article 6(1), Sentence 1, Subparagraph f of the GDPR. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with any other data held by Google. Please note that on this website, Google Analytics has been extended with the code «_anonymizeIp();» to ensure that IP addresses are collected anonymously. As a result, IP addresses are processed in truncated form, thereby precluding any possibility of personal identification. To the extent that the data collected about you is personally identifiable, such identification is immediately ruled out, and the personal data is therefore promptly deleted.

Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the United States and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website and Internet usage to the website operator. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the United States, Google has committed to complying with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there. You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser settings accordingly; however, please note that in this case, you may not be able to use all features of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address), as well as Google’s processing of this data, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: Disable Google Analytics.

You can also prevent Google Analytics from being used by clicking this link: Disable Google Analytics. This will store a so-called opt-out cookie on your device, which prevents Google Analytics from processing personal data. Please note that if you delete all cookies on your device, these opt-out cookies will also be deleted; this means you will need to set the opt-out cookies again if you wish to continue preventing this form of data collection. The opt-out cookies are set per browser and computer/device and must therefore be activated separately for each browser, computer, or other device.

Google Tag Manager

Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows us to manage so-called website tags via a user interface and, for example, integrate Google Analytics and other Google marketing services into our online presence. Tag Manager itself, which implements the tags, does not process any personal data of users. With regard to the processing of users’ personal data, please refer to the following information about Google services. Terms of Use: https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html.

The shipping service provider is engaged on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR and a data processing agreement pursuant to Article 28(3), sentence 1, of the GDPR.

The shipping service provider may use recipients’ data in pseudonymous form—that is, without linking it to a specific user—to optimize or improve its own services, such as for technical optimization of the delivery and presentation of newsletters or for statistical purposes. However, the mailing service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them directly or to share the data with third parties.

Privacy Policy for Vimeo

This website incorporates plugins from the video portal Vimeo, operated by Vimeo, LLC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.

If you have a Vimeo account and do not want Vimeo to collect data about you through this website and link it to your membership information stored with Vimeo, you must log out of Vimeo before visiting this website.

You can prevent tracking by Google Analytics by using the opt-out tools that Google provides for certain web browsers. You can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting data generated by Google Analytics and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link:
