General Information / Introduction
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 statutory data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy.
In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to protect our databases as best we can against 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 not possible 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. Data such as the pages accessed, the names of files accessed, and the date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes; this data is not directly linked to you personally. To the extent that personal data (such as name, address, or email addresses) is collected on our website, this is always done on a voluntary basis whenever possible. This data will not be disclosed to third parties without your express 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 or methods used, including, in particular, the storage, disclosure, collection, deletion, retention, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.
We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. If and to the extent that the EU GDPR applies, we also process personal data on the following legal bases in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) GDPR:
lit. 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 corresponding pre-contractual measures.
lit. c) Processing of personal data to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable EU law or under the applicable law of a country in which the GDPR is fully or partially applicable.
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 protect our legitimate interests or those of third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms, 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-term retention requirements due to legal or other obligations, we restrict our processing accordingly.
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 browsing the website. In particular, cookies make it possible to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of the pages, to analyze patterns of website usage, and to make our website more user-friendly. Cookies remain stored beyond 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—particularly regarding tracking—via the U.S. website http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU website http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. In addition, you can prevent cookies from being stored by disabling them in your browser settings. Please note that in this case, not all features of this website will 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 inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock icon in your browser’s address bar.
If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.
Third-Party Services
This website may use Google Maps to embed maps, Google Invisible reCAPTCHA to protect against bots and spam, and YouTube to embed videos.
These services provided by the U.S.-based Google LLC use cookies, among other things, which result in data being transferred to Google in the United States; however, we assume that, in this context, no personal tracking takes place solely as a result of using our website.
Google has committed to ensuring an adequate level of data protection in accordance with the U.S.-European and U.S.-Swiss Privacy Shields.
For more information, please see Google's Privacy Policy.

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 data without your consent.

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we need your email address as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the provided email address and that you consent to receiving the newsletter.

Storage of IP Addresses
Our comment feature stores the IP addresses of users who post comments. Since we do not review comments on our site before they are published, we need this data so that we can take action against the author in the event of legal violations, such as insults or propaganda.

Right to Erasure (Right to Be Forgotten)
Any data subject whose personal data is being processed has the right to request that the controller of this website immediately erase the personal data concerning them, provided that one of the following grounds applies and the processing is no longer necessary:
The personal data was collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer necessary.

Copyright
The copyright and all other rights to the content, images, photos, or other files on this website belong exclusively to the operator of this website or to the rights holders named herein. Prior written consent from the copyright holders must be obtained for the reproduction of any files.
Anyone who infringes copyright without the consent of the respective copyright holders may be subject to criminal prosecution and, under certain circumstances, liable for damages.
Disclaimer
All information on our website has been carefully reviewed. We make every effort to ensure that the information we provide is up-to-date, accurate, and complete. However, errors cannot be entirely ruled out, and therefore we cannot guarantee the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of the information, including journalistic and editorial content. Claims for damages, whether material or non-material, arising from the use or non-use of the information provided, or from the use of incorrect or incomplete information, are generally excluded.
The publisher may modify or delete text at its own discretion and without prior notice, and is under no obligation to update the content of this website. Use of or access to this website is at the visitor’s own risk. The publisher, its customers, or partners are not responsible for damages—such as direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages—allegedly caused by visiting this website and therefore assume no liability for such damages.
The publisher also assumes no responsibility or liability for the content and availability of third-party websites that can be accessed via external links from this website. The operators of the linked sites are solely responsible for their content. The publisher therefore expressly distances itself from all third-party content that may be relevant under criminal or civil law or that violates public decency.
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 want this data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out before clicking the button. Google stores your data as user 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 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 Ads
This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you arrived at our website via an ad served by Google, Google Ads will set a cookie on your computer. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad served by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to identify individuals. 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 Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies therefore cannot be tracked across the websites of Ads customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for Ads 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 to allow the placement of 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 “googleleadservices.com” domain.
Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want tracking data to be collected. If you have deleted all your cookies in your browser, you will need to set the respective opt-out cookie again.
Google Remarketing
This website uses the remarketing feature provided by Google Inc. This feature is used to display interest-based ads to website visitors within the Google Display Network. A so-called “cookie” is stored in the website visitor’s browser, which makes it possible to recognize the visitor when they visit websites that are part of the Google Display Network. On these websites, the visitor may be shown ads related to content they have previously viewed on websites that use Google’s remarketing feature.
According to Google, no personal data is collected during this process. However, if you do not wish to use Google’s remarketing feature, you can generally disable it by adjusting the relevant settings at http://www.google.com/settings/ads. Alternatively, you can disable the use of cookies for interest-based advertising through the Advertising Network Initiative by following the instructions at http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.
Google reCAPTCHA
This website uses the reCAPTCHA service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; “Google”). The purpose of this query is to determine whether the input is being made by a human or through automated, machine-based processing. The verification process involves transmitting your IP address and, if necessary, other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. For this purpose, your input is transmitted to Google and processed there. However, your IP address is truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. 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 this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of reCAPTCHA is not combined with other Google data. Your data may also be transferred to the United States in the process. For data transfers to the United States, there is an adequacy decision by the European Commission known as the “Privacy Shield.” Google participates in the “Privacy Shield” and has committed to its requirements. By submitting the query, you consent to the processing of your data. Processing is based on Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR with your consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent prior to withdrawal.
For more information about Google reCAPTCHA and its privacy policy, please visit: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de
Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the entity responsible for data processing on this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, data processing by Google Analytics is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereinafter referred to as “Google.”
The statistics collected enable us to improve our offerings and make them more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics for cross-device analysis of visitor traffic, which is carried out via a user ID. If you have a Google account, you can disable cross-device analysis of your usage in the settings there under “My Data” > “Personal Data.”
The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with 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. This means that IP addresses are processed in a truncated form so that they cannot be linked to a specific individual. If the data collected about you can be attributed to a specific individual, this is immediately ruled out, and the personal data is deleted without delay.
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 complied with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.
Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about 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 functions 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) and from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: Disable Google Analytics.
In addition, you can also prevent the use of Google Analytics by clicking this link: Disable Google Analytics. This will store a so-called opt-out cookie on your device, which prevents the processing of personal data by Google Analytics. Please note that deleting all cookies on your device will also delete these opt-out cookies; 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 per computer or device and must therefore be enabled separately for each browser, computer, or other device.
Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense on this website. This is an advertising program provided by Google Inc. In Europe, Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. Google AdSense allows us to display ads on this website that are relevant to our content.
Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads multiple times. Using a cookie ID, Google tracks which ads are displayed in which browser and can thus prevent them from being shown multiple times. In addition, Google AdSense may use cookie IDs to track so-called conversions associated with ad impressions. This occurs, for example, when a user sees a Google Ads ad and later visits the advertiser’s website using the same browser and makes a purchase there. According to Google, Google Ads cookies do not contain any personal information.
Through the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection to Google’s server. By integrating Google Ads, Google receives information that you have accessed the relevant section of our website or clicked on one of our ads. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can associate your visit with your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or are not logged in, it is possible that Google may obtain and store your IP address.
You can prevent your participation in this tracking process in several ways:
by adjusting your browser settings accordingly; in particular, blocking third-party cookies will prevent you from receiving third-party advertisements;
by disabling conversion tracking cookies by configuring your browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com,” https://adssettings.google.com—note that this setting will be reset if you clear your cookies;
by disabling interest-based advertising from providers participating in the “About Ads” self-regulatory campaign via the link https://www.aboutads.info/choices—note that this setting will be reset if you clear your cookies;
by permanently disabling it in your Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Google Chrome browsers via the link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. Please note that in this case, you may not be able to fully use all features of this website.
The legal basis for the processing of your data is a balancing of interests, according to which there are no overriding interests on your part that would preclude the processing of your personal data as described above (Art. 6(1), sentence 1, lit. f GDPR). For more information about Google Ads from Google, please visit https://ads.google.com/intl/de_DE/home/, and for general information on data protection at Google, please visit https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy. Alternatively, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) website at https://www.networkadvertising.org.
Google Web Fonts
This website uses so-called web fonts provided by Google to ensure consistent font display. When you visit a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its cache to display text and fonts correctly. If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font from your computer will be used.
For more information about Google Web Fonts, visit https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and see Google’s Privacy Policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
Google Tag Manager
Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows us to manage so-called website tags via an interface and thus integrate, for example, Google Analytics and other Google marketing services into our online offerings. Tag Manager itself, which implements the tags, does not process any of the users’ personal data. Regarding the processing of users’ personal data, please refer to the following information about Google’s services. Terms of Use: https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html.
Facebook
This website uses features provided by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. When you visit our pages that contain Facebook plugins, a connection is established between your browser and Facebook’s servers. Data is transmitted to Facebook as part of this process. If you have a Facebook account, this data may be linked to it. If you do not want this data to be linked to your Facebook account, please log out of Facebook before visiting our site. Interactions—in particular, using the comment feature or clicking a “Like” or “Share” button—are also forwarded to Facebook. You can learn more about this at https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy.
Instagram
Our website incorporates features from the Instagram service. These features are provided by Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If you are logged into your Instagram account, you can link the content on our pages to your Instagram profile by clicking the Instagram button. This allows Instagram to associate your visit to our pages with your user account. Please note that, as the provider of these pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how Instagram uses it. For more information, please see Instagram’s Privacy Policy: http://instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/
LinkedIn
Within our online services, we use the marketing services of the social network LinkedIn, operated by LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland (“LinkedIn”).
These services use cookies, which are text files stored on your computer. This allows us to analyze your use of the website. For example, this allows us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and show users products they have previously expressed interest in.
For example, information is collected about the operating system, the browser, the previously visited website (referrer URL), the web pages visited, the offers clicked on, as well as the date and time of your visit to our website.
The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website is transmitted in pseudonymous form to a LinkedIn server in the United States and stored there. LinkedIn does not store the name or email address of the individual user. Rather, the aforementioned data is assigned only to the person for whom the cookie was created. This does not apply if the user has permitted LinkedIn to process the data without pseudonymization or if the user has a LinkedIn account.
You can refuse the use of cookies by adjusting your browser settings accordingly; however, please note that you may then be unable to use all features of this website. You can also object to the use of your data directly with LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out.
We use LinkedIn Analytics to analyze and regularly improve the use of our website. The statistics we collect enable us to enhance our offerings and make them more interesting for you as a user. All LinkedIn companies have adopted the Standard Contractual Clauses to ensure that data transfers to the U.S. and Singapore—which are necessary for the development, implementation, and maintenance of the services—are carried out in a lawful manner. When we ask users for consent, the legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. Otherwise, the legal basis for the use of LinkedIn Analytics is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

This website uses ActiveCampaign's services to send newsletters. The provider is the U.S.-based company ActiveCampaign, LLC, 150 N. Michigan Ave, Suite 1230, Chicago, IL, US, USA.
Active Campaign is a service that can be used, among other things, to organize and analyze the distribution of newsletters. When you enter data for the purpose of receiving newsletters (e.g., your email address), this data is stored on Active Campaign’s servers in the United States.
Active Campaign is certified under the "EU-U.S. Privacy Shield." The "Privacy Shield" is an agreement between the European Union (EU) and the United States to ensure compliance with European data protection standards in the United States.
Active Campaign allows us to analyze our newsletter campaigns. When you open an email sent via Active Campaign, a file contained in the email (known as a web beacon) connects to Active Campaign’s servers in the United States.

Vimeo
This website incorporates plugins from the video portal Vimeo, operated by Vimeo, LLC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA. When you visit a page that features one or more Vimeo video clips, a direct connection is established between your browser and a Vimeo server in the United States. Information about your visit and your IP address is stored there. When you interact with the Vimeo plugins (e.g., by clicking the play button), this information is also transmitted to Vimeo and stored there. For more detailed information on how Vimeo collects and uses your data, please refer to Vimeo’s Privacy Policy.
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.
In addition, Vimeo loads the Google Analytics tracker via an iFrame in which the video is embedded. This is Vimeo’s own tracking system, to which we have no access. 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), as well as prevent Google from processing this data, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link:

Online Store / Web Store
We process our customers’ data in accordance with the federal data protection regulations (Data Protection Act, DSG) and the EU GDPR as part of the ordering process in our online store, in order to enable them to select and order the products and services of their choice, as well as to facilitate payment, delivery, and order fulfillment.
The data processed includes master data (customer records), communication data, contract data, and payment data; the individuals affected by this processing include our customers, prospective customers, and other business partners. The processing is carried out for the purpose of providing contractual services in connection with the operation of an online store, billing, delivery, and customer service. In this context, we use session cookies—for example, to store the contents of the shopping cart—and persistent cookies—for example, to store the login status.
Processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) (execution of order processes) and (c) (legally required archiving) of the GDPR. The data marked as required is necessary for the establishment and performance of the contract. We disclose the data to third parties only in connection with delivery, payment, or as permitted or required by law. Data is processed in third countries only if this is necessary for the fulfillment of the contract (e.g., at the customer’s request for delivery or payment).
Users may optionally create a user account, which allows them, in particular, to view their orders. During the registration process, users are informed of the required mandatory information. User accounts are not public and cannot be indexed by search engines, such as Google. Once users have closed their user accounts, their data associated with the user account will be deleted, unless retention is required for commercial or tax law reasons in accordance with Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR. Information in the customer account remains stored until it is deleted and subsequently archived in the event of a legal obligation. It is the users’ responsibility to save their data in the event of termination prior to the end of the contract.
As part of registration and re-registration, as well as the use of our online services, we store the IP address and the time of the respective user action. This data is stored based on our legitimate interests and those of the users in protecting against misuse and other unauthorized use. This data is generally not disclosed to third parties unless it is necessary to pursue our claims or there is a legal obligation to do so pursuant to Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR.
The data is deleted upon the expiration of statutory warranty obligations and comparable obligations; the necessity of retaining the data is reviewed at irregular intervals. In the case of statutory archiving obligations, the data is deleted upon their expiration.
