General Notice

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the data protection provisions of the Confederation (Data Protection Act, DPA), every person has the right to protection of their privacy and to protection against the misuse of their personal data. The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat 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 the databases as well as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or falsification.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

By using this website, you agree to the collection, processing, and use of data in accordance with the following description. This website can generally be visited without registration. Data such as pages accessed or the name of the retrieved file, date, and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being directly related to your person. Personal data, in particular name, address, or email address, are collected on a voluntary basis as far as possible. No data will be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Processing of Personal Data

Personal data includes all information relating to a specific or identifiable person. A data subject is a person about whom personal data is processed. Processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures applied, in particular the retention, disclosure, procurement, deletion, storage, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. Furthermore, we process personal data – to the extent and insofar as the EU GDPR is applicable – in accordance with 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 their personal data for one specific purpose or several specific purposes.
  • Performance of a contract and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b. GDPR) The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at the request of the data subject.
  • Legal obligation (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. c. GDPR) – The processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.
  • Protection of vital interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. d. GDPR) – Die Verarbeitung ist erforderlich, um lebenswichtige Interessen der betroffenen Person oder einer anderen natürlichen Person zu schützen.
  • Berechtigte Interessen (Art. 6 Abs. 1 S. 1 lit. f. DSGVO) The processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, provided that the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, which require the protection of personal data, do not prevail.
  • 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 severe disability status or ethnic origin) are requested from applicants within the framework of the application procedure so that the controller or the data subject can exercise the rights accruing to them from employment law and social security and social protection law and comply with their obligations in this regard, their processing takes place in accordance with Art. 9 Para. 2 lit. b. GDPR, in the case of protection of vital interests of applicants or other persons acc. to Art. 9 Para. 2 lit. c. GDPR or for purposes of preventive or occupational medicine, for the assessment of the working capacity of the employee, for medical diagnosis, care or treatment in the health or social sector or for the administration of systems and services in the health or social sector acc. to Art. 9 Para. 2 lit. h. GDPR. In the case of a communication of special categories of data based on voluntary consent, their processing takes place on the basis of Art. 9 Para. 2 lit. a. GDPR.

We process personal data for the duration that is necessary for the respective purpose or purposes. In the case of longer retention obligations due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict the processing accordingly.

Legal bases

n accordance with Art. 13 GDPR, we inform you of the legal bases of our data processing. Unless the legal basis is stated in the 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 for the performance of our services and implementation of contractual measures as well as answering inquiries is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR, the legal basis for processing to fulfill our legal obligations is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c GDPR, and the legal basis for processing to safeguard our legitimate interests is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

Security measures

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing as well as the varying likelihood and severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk.

The measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as access, input, transmission, securing availability, and separation. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure the exercise of data subject rights, the deletion of data, and responses to data compromise. Furthermore, we consider the protection of personal data already during the development or selection of hardware, software, and procedures in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings.

Transmission of personal data

Within the scope of our processing of personal data, it may happen that the data is transmitted to or disclosed to other bodies, companies, legally independent organizational units or persons. The recipients of this data may include, for example, service providers commissioned with IT tasks or providers of services and content that are integrated into a website. In such cases, we observe the legal requirements and, in particular, conclude corresponding contracts or agreements that serve to protect your data with the recipients of 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 the processing takes place in the context of the use of third-party services or the disclosure or transmission of data to other persons, bodies or companies, this will only take place in accordance with the legal requirements.

Subject to express consent or contractually or legally required transmission, we process data only in third countries with a recognized level of data protection, contractual obligation through so-called standard protection clauses of the EU Commission, in the presence of certifications or binding internal data protection regulations (Art. 44 to 49 GDPR, information page of the EU Commission: 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 is primarily used to store information about a user during or after their visit to an online offer. The stored information may include, for example, the language settings on a website, the login status, a shopping cart, or the location where a video was watched. We also include other technologies that fulfill the same functions as cookies under the term cookies (e.g., when user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also referred to as "user IDs").

The following cookie types and functions are distinguished:

  • Temporary cookies (also: session cookies):Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online offer and closed their browser.
  • Permanent cookiesPermanent cookies remain stored even after the browser is closed. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content can be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. Likewise, the interests of users, which are used for range measurement or marketing purposes, can be stored in such a cookie.
  • First-party cookies:First-party cookies are set by us ourselves.
  • Third-party cookiesThird-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 personalization cookiesFurthermore, cookies are generally also used in the context of range measurement and when a user's interests or behavior (e.g., viewing certain content, using functions, etc.) are stored in a user profile on individual websites. Such profiles are used to display content to users that corresponds to their potential interests. This process is also referred to as "tracking", i.e., tracking the potential interests of users. Insofar as we use cookies or "tracking" technologies, we will inform you separately in our privacy policy or in the context of obtaining consent.

On which legal basis we process your personal data using cookies depends on whether we ask you for consent. If this applies and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for processing your data is the declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed using cookies will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g., in a business operation of our online offer and its improvement) or, if the use of cookies is necessary, to fulfill our contractual obligations.

Storage duration: Unless we provide you with explicit information on the storage duration of permanent cookies (e.g., in the context of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage duration can be up to two years.

General notes on revocation and objection (Opt-Out): Depending on whether the processing is based on consent or legal permission, you have the option at any time to revoke consent given or to object to the processing of your data by cookie technologies (collectively referred to as "opt-out"). You can initially declare your objection using your browser settings, e.g., by deactivating the use of cookies (although this may also restrict the functionality of our online offer). An objection to the use of cookies for online marketing purposes can also be declared using a variety of services, especially in the case of tracking, via the websites https://optout.aboutads.info and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/. In addition, you can receive further objection instructions within the scope of the information on the service providers and cookies used.

Processing of cookie data based on consent: We use a cookie consent management procedure, within the scope of which the users' consent to the use of cookies, or the processing and providers mentioned within the scope of the cookie consent management procedure, is obtained as well as managed and revoked by the users. Here, the declaration of consent is stored in order not to have to repeat the query and to be able to prove the consent in accordance with the legal obligation. The storage can take place on the server side and/or in a cookie (so-called opt-in cookie, or with the help of comparable technologies) in order to be able to assign the consent to a user or their device. Subject to individual details on the providers of cookie management services, the following notes apply: The duration of the storage of the consent can be up to two years. Here, a pseudonymous user identifier is formed and stored with the time of consent, information on the scope of the consent (e.g., which categories of cookies and/or service providers) as well as the browser, system, and end device used.

  • Processed data types: Usage data (e.g., websites visited, interest in content, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP addresses).
  • Data subjects: Users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services).
  • Legal bases: Consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a. GDPR), Legitimate Interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f. GDPR).
