Gen­er­al / Intro­duc­tion
Based on Art­icle 13 of the Swiss Fed­er­al Con­sti­tu­tion and the data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­sions of the Swiss Con­fed­er­a­tion (Data Pro­tec­tion Act, DSG), every per­son has the right to pro­tec­tion of their pri­vacy as well as pro­tec­tion against 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 leg­al data pro­tec­tion reg­u­la­tions as well as this pri­vacy policy.

In cooper­a­tion with our host­ing pro­viders, we make every effort to pro­tect the data­bases as well as pos­sible against unau­thor­ized access, loss, mis­use or falsi­fic­a­tion.

We would like to point out that data trans­mis­sion on the Inter­net (e.g. communication by e-mail) can have secur­ity gaps. A com­plete pro­tec­tion of data against access by third parties is not pos­sible.

By using this web­site, you con­sent 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 names of files accessed, 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 e-mail address are col­lec­ted as far as pos­sible on a vol­un­tary basis. Without your con­sent, the data will not be passed on to third parties.

Pro­cessing of per­son­al data
Per­son­al data is any inform­a­tion that relates to an iden­ti­fied 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, acquis­i­tion, dele­tion, stor­age, modi­fic­a­tion, destruc­tion and use of per­son­al data.

We pro­cess per­son­al data in accord­ance with Swiss data pro­tec­tion law. Fur­ther­more, to the extent and inso­far as the EU GDPR is applic­able, we pro­cess per­son­al data in accord­ance with the fol­low­ing leg­al bases in con­nec­tion with Art. 6 (1) GDPR:
lit. a) Pro­cessing of per­son­al data with the con­sent of the data sub­ject.
lit. b) Pro­cessing of per­son­al data for the ful­fill­ment of a con­tract with the data sub­ject as well as for the imple­ment­a­tion of cor­res­pond­ing pre-con­trac­tu­al meas­ures.
lit. c) Pro­cessing of per­son­al data for the ful­fill­ment of a leg­al oblig­a­tion to which we are sub­ject under any applic­able law of the EU or under any applic­able law of a coun­try in which the GDPR is applic­able in whole or in part.
lit. d) Pro­cessing of per­son­al data in order to pro­tect the vital interests of the data sub­ject or anoth­er nat­ur­al per­son.
lit. f) Pro­cessing of per­son­al data to pro­tect the legit­im­ate interests of us or of third parties, unless the fun­da­ment­al freedoms and rights and interests of the data sub­ject are over­rid­den. 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 the dur­a­tion required for the respect­ive pur­pose or pur­poses. In the case of longer-term reten­tion oblig­a­tions due to leg­al and oth­er oblig­a­tions to which we are sub­ject, we restrict pro­cessing accord­ingly.

Cook­ies
This web­site uses cook­ies. These are small text files that make it pos­sible to store spe­cif­ic inform­a­tion related to the user on the user’s ter­min­al device while the user is using the web­site. Cook­ies make it pos­sible, in par­tic­u­lar, to determ­ine the fre­quency of use and num­ber of users of the pages, to ana­lyze beha­vi­or pat­terns of page use, but also to make our offer more cus­tom­er-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 set your Inter­net browser so that it refuses to accept cook­ies.

A gen­er­al objec­tion to the use of cook­ies used for online mar­ket­ing pur­poses can be declared for a large num­ber of the ser­vices, espe­cially in the case of track­ing, via the U.S. site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Fur­ther­more, the stor­age of cook­ies can be achieved by dis­abling them in the browser set­tings. Please note that in this case not all func­tions of this online offer can be used.

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

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

Serv­er Log-Files
The pro­vider of this web­site auto­mat­ic­ally col­lects and stores inform­a­tion in so-called serv­er log files, which your browser auto­mat­ic­ally trans­mits to us. These are:
Browser type and Browser ver­sion
Oper­at­ing sys­tem used
refer­rer URL
Host name of the access­ing com­puter
Time of the serv­er request

This data can­not be assigned to spe­cif­ic per­sons. This data is not merged with oth­er data sources. We reserve the right to check this data ret­ro­spect­ively if we become aware of spe­cif­ic indic­a­tions of illeg­al use.

Third party ser­vices
This web­site may use Google Maps for embed­ding maps, Google Invis­ible reCAPTCHA for pro­tec­tion against bots and spam, and You­Tube for embed­ding videos.

These ser­vices of the Amer­ic­an Google LLC use cook­ies, among oth­er things, and as a res­ult, data is trans­ferred to Google in the USA, although we assume that no per­son­al track­ing takes place in this con­text solely through the use of our web­site.

Google has under­taken to ensure adequate data pro­tec­tion in accord­ance with the US-European and the US-Swiss Pri­vacy Shield.

Fur­ther inform­a­tion can be found in Google’s pri­vacy policy.

Copy­rights
The copy­right and all oth­er rights to the con­tent, images, pho­tos or oth­er files on the web­site belong exclus­ively to the oper­at­or of this web­site or the spe­cific­ally named copy­right hold­ers. For the repro­duc­tion of all files, the writ­ten con­sent of the copy­right hold­er must be obtained in advance.
Any­one who com­mits a copy­right infringe­ment without the con­sent of the respect­ive copy­right hold­er may be liable to pro­sec­u­tion and pos­sibly to dam­ages.

Dis­claim­er
All inform­a­tion on our web­site has been care­fully checked. We make every effort to ensure that the inform­a­tion we provide is up-to-date, cor­rect and com­plete. Nev­er­the­less, the occur­rence of errors can not be com­pletely excluded, so we can not guar­an­tee the com­plete­ness, accur­acy and timeli­ness of inform­a­tion, includ­ing journ­al­ist­ic-edit­or­i­al nature. Liab­il­ity claims regard­ing dam­age caused by the use of any inform­a­tion provided, includ­ing any kind of inform­a­tion which is incom­plete or incor­rect, will there­fore be rejec­ted.
The pub­lish­er may change or delete texts at his own dis­cre­tion and without notice and is not obliged to update the con­tents of this web­site. The use of or access to this web­site is at the visitor’s own risk. The pub­lish­er, its cli­ents or part­ners are not respons­ible for dam­ages, such as dir­ect, indir­ect, incid­ent­al, con­sequen­tial or pun­it­ive dam­ages, allegedly caused by the vis­it of this web­site and con­sequently assume no liab­il­ity for such dam­ages.
The pub­lish­er also accepts no respons­ib­il­ity or liab­il­ity for the con­tent and avail­ab­il­ity of third-party web­sites that can be accessed via extern­al links on this web­site. The oper­at­ors of the linked sites are solely respons­ible for their con­tent. The pub­lish­er thus expressly dis­tances itself from all third-party con­tent that may be rel­ev­ant under crim­in­al or liab­il­ity law or that may offend com­mon decency.

Google Maps
This web­site uses the offer of Google Maps. This allows us to dis­play inter­act­ive maps dir­ectly on the web­site and enables you to com­fort­ably use the map func­tion. By vis­it­ing the web­site, Google receives the inform­a­tion that you have accessed the cor­res­pond­ing sub­page of our web­site. This occurs regard­less of wheth­er Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or wheth­er there is no user account. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be dir­ectly assigned to your account. If you do not want the assign­ment with your pro­file at Google, you must log out before activ­at­ing the but­ton. Google stores your data as usage pro­files and uses them for the pur­poses of advert­ising, mar­ket research and/or demand-ori­ented design of its web­site. Such an eval­u­ation is car­ried out in par­tic­u­lar (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based 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, whereby you must con­tact Google to exer­cise this right. 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 for pro­tect­ing your pri­vacy, please vis­it: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

Linked­In
We use the mar­ket­ing ser­vices of the social net­work Linked­In of Linked­In Ire­land Unlim­ited Com­pany, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dub­lin 2, Ire­land (“Linked­In”) with­in our online offer.
These use cook­ies, i.e. text files that are stored on your com­puter. This enables us to ana­lyze your use of the web­site. For example, we can meas­ure the suc­cess of our ads and show users products in which they were pre­vi­ously inter­ested.
For example, inform­a­tion on the oper­at­ing sys­tem, the browser, the web­site you pre­vi­ously vis­ited (refer­rer URL), which web­sites the user vis­ited, which offers the user clicked on, and the date and time of your vis­it to our web­site is col­lec­ted.
The inform­a­tion gen­er­ated by the cook­ie about your use of this web­site is trans­ferred pseud­onym­ously to a Linked­In serv­er in the USA and stored there. Linked­In there­fore does not store the name or email address of the respect­ive user. Rather, the above-men­tioned data is only assigned to the per­son for whom the cook­ie was gen­er­ated. This does not apply if the user has allowed Linked­In to pro­cess without pseud­onym­iz­a­tion or has a Linked­In account.
You may refuse the use of cook­ies by select­ing the appro­pri­ate set­tings on your browser, how­ever please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full func­tion­al­ity of this web­site. You can also object to the use of your data dir­ectly at 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 obtained allow us to improve our offer and make it more inter­est­ing for you as a user. All Linked­In com­pan­ies have adop­ted the stand­ard con­trac­tu­al clauses to ensure that the data traffic to the USA and Singa­pore neces­sary for the devel­op­ment, imple­ment­a­tion and main­ten­ance of the ser­vices takes place in a law­ful man­ner. If we ask users for con­sent, the leg­al basis for pro­cessing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO. Oth­er­wise, the leg­al basis for the use of Linked­In Ana­lyt­ics is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

You­Tube
Func­tions of the “You­Tube” ser­vice are integ­rated on this web­site. “You­Tube” is owned by Google Ire­land Lim­ited, a com­pany incor­por­ated and oper­ated under the laws of Ire­land, with its registered office at Gor­don House, Bar­row Street, Dub­lin 4, Ire­land, which oper­ates the ser­vices in the European Eco­nom­ic Area and Switzer­land.
Your leg­al agree­ment with “You­Tube” con­sists of the terms and con­di­tions found at the fol­low­ing link: https://www.youtube.com/static?gl=de&template=terms&hl=de. These Terms con­sti­tute a leg­ally bind­ing agree­ment between you and “You­Tube” regard­ing your use of the Ser­vices. Google’s Pri­vacy Policy explains how “You­Tube” treats and pro­tects your per­son­al inform­a­tion when you use the Ser­vice.

Vimeo
Plu­gins of the video portal Vimeo of Vimeo, LLC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA are integ­rated on this web­site. Each time you vis­it a page that offers one or more Vimeo video clips, a dir­ect con­nec­tion is estab­lished between your browser and a Vimeo serv­er in the USA. In the pro­cess, inform­a­tion about your vis­it and your IP address are stored there. Through inter­ac­tions with the Vimeo plu­gins (e.g. click­ing the start but­ton), this inform­a­tion is also trans­mit­ted to Vimeo and stored there. The pri­vacy policy for Vimeo with more detailed inform­a­tion on the col­lec­tion and use of your data by Vimeo can be found in the pri­vacy policy of Vimeo.

If you have a Vimeo user account and do not want Vimeo to col­lect data about you via this web­site and link it to your mem­ber­ship data stored with Vimeo, you must log out of Vimeo before vis­it­ing this web­site.

In addi­tion, Vimeo calls up the Google Ana­lyt­ics track­er via an iFrame in which the video is called up. This is Vimeo’s own track­ing, to which we have no access. You can pre­vent track­ing by Google Ana­lyt­ics by using the deac­tiv­a­tion tools that Google offers for some Inter­net browsers. You can also pre­vent the col­lec­tion of data gen­er­ated by Google Ana­lyt­ics and related to your use of the web­site (includ­ing your IP address) to Google and the pro­cessing of this data by Google by down­load­ing and installing the browser plu­gin avail­able at the fol­low­ing link:

Agency ser­vices
We pro­cess the data of our cus­tom­ers in accord­ance with the data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­sions of the Fed­er­al (Data Pro­tec­tion Act, DSG) and the EU-DSGVO in the con­text of our con­trac­tu­al ser­vices.
In doing so, we pro­cess invent­ory data (e.g., cus­tom­er mas­ter data, such as names or addresses), con­tact data (e.g., e-mail, tele­phone num­bers), con­tent data (e.g., text entries, etc.), con­tract data (e.g., sub­ject mat­ter of the con­tract, term), pay­ment data (e.g., bank details, pay­ment his­tory), usage data and metadata (e.g., in the con­text of eval­u­at­ing and meas­ur­ing the suc­cess of mar­ket­ing meas­ures). Data sub­jects include our cus­tom­ers, pro­spect­ive cus­tom­ers as well as their cus­tom­ers, users, web­site vis­it­ors or employ­ees as well as third parties. The pur­pose of the pro­cessing is the pro­vi­sion of con­trac­tu­al ser­vices, billing and our cus­tom­er ser­vice. The leg­al basis for the pro­cessing res­ults from Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO (con­trac­tu­al ser­vices), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO (ana­lys­is, stat­ist­ics, optim­iz­a­tion, secur­ity meas­ures). We pro­cess data that are neces­sary for the jus­ti­fic­a­tion and ful­fill­ment of con­trac­tu­al ser­vices and indic­ate the neces­sity of their dis­clos­ure. Dis­clos­ure to extern­al parties only takes place if it is neces­sary in the con­text of an order. When pro­cessing the data provided to us as part of an order, we act in accord­ance with the instruc­tions of the cli­ent as well as the leg­al require­ments of a com­mis­sioned pro­cessing pur­su­ant to Art. 28 DSGVO and do not pro­cess the data for any oth­er pur­poses than those spe­cified in the order.
We delete the data after expiry of leg­al war­ranty and com­par­able oblig­a­tions. The neces­sity of keep­ing the data is reviewed at irreg­u­lar inter­vals. In the case of leg­al archiv­ing oblig­a­tions, dele­tion takes place after their expiry. In the case of data dis­closed to us by the cli­ent as part of an order, we delete the data in accord­ance with the spe­cific­a­tions of the order, gen­er­ally after the end of the order.

Dis­claim­er
The author assumes no liab­il­ity for the cor­rect­ness, accur­acy, timeli­ness, reli­ab­il­ity and com­plete­ness of the inform­a­tion.
Liab­il­ity claims against the author for mater­i­al or imma­ter­i­al dam­age res­ult­ing from access to, use or non-use of the pub­lished inform­a­tion, from mis­use of the con­nec­tion or from tech­nic­al mal­func­tions are excluded.

All offers are non-bind­ing. The author expressly reserves the right to change, add to, or delete parts of the pages or the entire offer without pri­or notice, or to tem­por­ar­ily or per­man­ently cease pub­lic­a­tion.
