Data Privacy

Protecting your privacy is important to us. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.

It is generally possible to use our website without providing any personal data. As far as personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis, as far as possible. Some of this data will be passed on to third parties in accordance with this data protection declaration.

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.

Cookies

Some of the websites use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offering more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and that your browser saves.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They will be automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

Hosting provider & server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

IP address
Browser type and browser version
operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of server request
This data cannot be directly assigned to specific persons. This data will not be merged with other data sources. We reserve the right to subsequently check this data if we become aware of concrete indications of illegal use.

This data and all data on this website are stored by our hosting provider cyon GmbH, Brunngässlein 12, CH-4052 Basel, whose data protection declaration can be found here.

SSL encryption

This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser address line changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Contact form

If you send us inquiries using the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, including your IP address, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

Right to information, deletion, blocking

You have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing, as well as the right to correct, block or delete this data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice for this purpose or for further questions on the subject of personal data.

Matomo

This website uses the open source web analysis service Matomo.

With the help of Matomo, we are able to collect and evaluate data about the use of our website by website visitors. This allows us to find out, among other things, when which page views occurred and from which region they came. We also collect various log files (e.g. IP address, referrer, browsers used and operating systems) and may measure whether our website visitors take certain actions (e.g. clicks, purchases, etc.).

The use of this analysis tool is based on Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its website and its advertising. If appropriate consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and Section 25 Para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

IP anonymization

When analyzing with Matomo, we use IP anonymization. Your IP address will be shortened before analysis so that it can no longer be clearly assigned to you.

Analysis without cookies

We have configured Matomo so that Matomo does not store cookies in your browser.

You can prevent this website from aggregating and analyzing the actions you take here. This protects your privacy, but also prevents the owner from learning from your actions and creating a better experience for you and other users.

You have the option to prevent actions you take here from being analyzed and linked. This will protect your privacy, but will also prevent the owner from learning from your actions and improving usability for you and other users.
