Privacy Policy

General

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the federal data protection regulations (Data Protection Act, DPA), every person has the right to privacy and protection from the misuse of their personal data. The operators of this site take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

In collaboration with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases as much as possible from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., communication via email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data from third-party access 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 or names of files accessed, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes, without being directly linked to your person. Where personal data (e.g., name, address, or email addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis, wherever possible. These data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent.

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 user is using the website. Cookies are particularly useful for determining the frequency of use and the number of users on the pages, analyzing browsing patterns, and also making our service more user-friendly. Cookies remain stored beyond the end of a browser session and can be retrieved on a return visit to the site. If you do not wish this, you should configure your internet browser to reject cookies.

A general objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can be made for a variety of services, particularly for tracking, via the US site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Additionally, the storage of cookies can be prevented by disabling them in the browser settings. Please note that in this case, not all features of this online service may be available.

With SSL/TLS encryption

This website uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests you send to us as the site operator. An encrypted connection can be recognized by the fact that the browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser’s address bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Server log files

The provider of this website collects and stores information automatically in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include: browser type and version, operating system used, referrer, URL, hostname of the accessing computer, time of the server request.

These data cannot be assigned to specific individuals. These data will not be merged with other data sources. We reserve the right to review these data retrospectively if we become aware of concrete evidence of unlawful use.

Copyright and all other rights to the content, images, photos, or other files on the website belong exclusively to the operator of this website or the named copyright holders. Prior written consent from the copyright holders must be obtained for the reproduction of any files. Anyone who commits a copyright violation without the consent of the respective copyright holders may be subject to criminal liability and, in some cases, may face claims for damages.
