2. Processing of Personal Data

2.1 Terms

Personal Data is all statements relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. A Data Subject is a person whose personal data is processed. Processing comprises any handling of Personal Data, irrespective of the means and procedures applied, in particular the storage, disclosure, procurement, collection, erasure, retention, modification, destruction and utilisation of Personal Data.

2.2 Legal Bases

We process Personal Data in line with the Swiss data protection legislation, including, in particular, the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and the Ordinance to the Federal Act on Data Protection (OFADP).

2.3 Nature, Scope and Purpose

We process any Personal Data that is necessary in order to provide our online offering in a permanent, user-friendly, secure and reliable way. Such Personal Data may fall into the categories of inventory and contact data, content data, usage data and marginal data as well as contact data and payment data.

We process Personal Data for any duration that is required for the respective purpose or the respective purposes or by law. Any Personal Data whose Processing is no longer necessary will be anonymised or erased.

In principle, we process Personal Data only after the consent of the Data Subject has been given, unless Processing is permissible for any other legal grounds, for example for the performance of a contract to which the Data Subject is party and for corresponding measures prior to entering into a contract to safeguard our prevailing legitimate interests, since such Processing is apparent from the circumstances or after prior information.

Within this framework, we process, in particular, statements transferred by a Data Subject to us voluntarily and by himself/herself upon establishment of contact, for example by letter mail, e-mail, contact form, social media or telephone, or upon registration for a user account. We may retain such statements, for example, in an address book or with comparable aids. Where you transfer Personal Data of third parties to us, you are obliged to guarantee data protection towards such third parties and to ensure the accuracy of such Personal Data.

Moreover, we process Personal Data we receive from third parties, procure from publicly accessible sources or collect upon provision of our online offering where and to the extent that such Processing is permitted on legal grounds.

2.4 Processing of Personal Data by Third Parties, also Abroad

We may have engage third parties, especially processors, to process Personal Data or process or transfer Personal Data to third parties jointly with and with the help of third parties. Such third parties include, in particular, providers, whose services we use. We guarantee reasonable data protection also at such third parties.

Such third parties are located, in principle, in Switzerland as well as in the European Economic Area (EEA) including the European Union (EU). Nonetheless, such third parties may also be located in other countries in the world or elsewhere in the universe, where their data protection legislation according to the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) guarantees reasonable data protection, or if reasonable data protection is guaranteed for other reasons, for example by an adequate contractual agreement, especially based on standard contractual clauses, or by an adequate certification. At third parties in the United States of America (USA), the certification under the Privacy Shield can guarantee reasonable data protection. Such a third party may be exceptionally located in a country without reasonable data protection where the relevant preconditions under privacy law, such as the explicit consent of the Data Subject, are met.

3. Rights of Data Subjects

Data Subjects, whose Personal Data we process, have the rights under the Swiss data protection legislation. This includes the right of access as well as the right to rectification, erasure or blocking of the Personal Data processed.

Data Subjects, whose Personal Data we process, have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority. The supervisory authority in charge of data protection in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).

4. Data Security

We take reasonable and adequate technical and organisational measures to guarantee data protection and, in particular, data security. Nonetheless, Processing of Personal Data on the Internet may always be subject to security loopholes despite such measures. Therefore, we cannot ensure absolute data security.

Access to our online offering is provided by transport encryption (SSL / TLS with HTTPS).

Just as, in principle

7. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services to provide our online offering in a permanent, user-friendly, secure and reliable way. Such services also serve to allow us to embed contents in our online offering.

Third-party services may also process data in aggregated, anonymised or pseudonymised form, inter alia with cookies, log files and tracking pixels, in connection with our online offering and from other services for their own security-relevant, statistical and technical purposes. Such data is not used to directly contact Data Subjects in connection with our online offering.

Google attempts to capture individual visitors of our website even if they use different browsers or devices (Cross-Device Tracking). Cookies are also used in this context.
