Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the data protection regulations of the Federal Government (Data Protection Act, DSG), every person is entitled to protection of their privacy and to protection against misuse of their personal data.

The operator of this website takes the protection of your personal data seriously. Therefore, we treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. Personal data will be kept strictly confidential and will not be sold or passed on to third parties.

In close cooperation with our hosting providers, we endeavour to protect the databases as far as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or counterfeiting.

We point out that the transmission of data on the Internet can generally have security gaps. A complete protection of data from access by third parties is therefore not possible. However, we make every effort to keep our website up to date.

Cookies make it possible, in particular, to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of the pages, to analyse the behaviour of the page usage, but also to make our offer more customer-friendly.

Cookies are stored at the end of a browser session and can be recalled when the page is visited again. If you do not want this, you should set your Internet browser to refuse to accept cookies.

Declaration of data protection for SSL Encryption

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

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