2.    Terms
Personal data is all information that relates 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 used, in particular the storage, disclosure, procurement, collection, deletion, storage, modification, destruction and use of personal data.

3.    General note
Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the federal data protection regulations (Data Protection Act, DSG), every person has the right to protection of their privacy and protection against misuse of their personal data. The operators of these sites 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 data protection declaration.
In collaboration with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases as best as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or forgery.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating via email) 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 or the name of the file accessed, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being directly related to you personally. Personal data, in particular name, address or email address, is collected on a voluntary basis wherever possible. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

4.    Nature, scope and purpose
We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. Furthermore, to the extent and to the extent that the EU GDPR is applicable, we process personal data in accordance with the legal basis in connection with Art. 6 Para. 1 GDPR.
We process the personal data that is necessary to be able to carry out our activities and activities in a permanent, user-friendly, secure and reliable manner. Such personal data may in particular fall into the categories of inventory and contact data, browser and device data, content data, meta or edge data and usage data, location data, sales data and contract and payment data.
We process personal data for the period that is necessary for the respective purpose(s) or by law. Personal data that no longer needs to be processed will be anonymized or deleted.
We may have personal data processed by third parties. We may process personal data together with third parties or transfer it to third parties. Such third parties are, in particular, specialized providers whose services we use. We also guarantee data protection for such third parties.
We only process personal data with the consent of the person concerned, unless the processing is permitted for other legal reasons. Processing without consent may, for example, be permissible to fulfill a contract with the data subject and for appropriate pre-contractual measures to protect our overriding legitimate interests because the processing is obvious from the circumstances or after prior information.
In this context, we process information that a data subject voluntarily sends to us when contacting us - for example by post, email, instant messaging, contact form, social media or telephone - or when registering for a user account. We can store such information, for example, in an address book or using comparable tools. If we receive data about other people, the people providing the data are obliged to ensure data protection for these people and to ensure the accuracy of this personal data.
We also process personal data that we receive from third parties, obtain from publicly available sources or collect in the exercise of our activities and activities, if and to the extent that such processing is permitted for legal reasons.

5. Personal data abroad
We generally process personal data in Switzerland. We can also disclose or export personal data to other countries, in particular in order to process it or have it processed there.
We may disclose personal data to all states and territories on earth and elsewhere in the universe, provided that the local law ensures adequate data protection in the opinion of the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or in accordance with a decision of the Swiss Federal Council.
We may disclose personal data in countries whose laws do not ensure adequate data protection, provided that appropriate data protection is guaranteed for other reasons, for example through appropriate contractual agreements, on the basis of standard data protection clauses or with other appropriate safeguards. As an exception, we can export personal data to countries without adequate or suitable data protection if the special data protection requirements are met, for example the express consent of the data subjects or a direct connection with the conclusion or execution of a contract. Upon request, we will be happy to provide affected persons with information about any guarantees or provide a copy of any guarantees.

6.    Rights of Data Subjects

Right to deletion (right to be forgotten)
Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to request that the person responsible for this website delete the personal data concerning him or her immediately if one of the following reasons applies and if the processing is not necessary:

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

•    The processing is unlawful, the data subject refuses the deletion 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 the purposes of processing, but the data subject needs them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims
•    The data subject has objected to the processing on grounds relating to his or her particular situation and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the controller outweigh those of the data subject
If one of the above conditions is met and you would like to request the restriction of personal data stored by the operator of this website, you can contact our data protection officer at any time. The data protection officer of this website will arrange for the processing to be restricted.
