General Note
Under Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the Confederation’s provisions on data protection (Federal Act on Data Protection, FADP), everyone is entitled to the protection of their privacy and protection against the 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 legal data protection provisions as well as this privacy policy.
We make every effort to protect our databases from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or falsification.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., email communication) may have security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to guarantee complete protection against third-party access.
By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing, and use of your data as described below. In principle, this website can be visited without registration. Data such as the pages visited or the name of the file accessed, along with the date and time, is stored on the server for statistical purposes without being directly linked to you as an individual. Personal data, in particular your name, physical address, or email address, is collected on a voluntary basis wherever possible. Without your consent, no data will be transmitted to third parties
Processing of Personal Data
Personal data refers to all information relating to an identified or identifiable individual. 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 retention, disclosure, acquisition, deletion, storage, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.
We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. Furthermore, we process personal data—where and to the extent that the EU GDPR applies—in line with the following legal bases in connection with Article 6(1) of the GDPR:
a) Processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.
b) Processing of personal data for the performance of a contract with the data subject, as well as for the implementation of related pre-contractual measures.
c) Processing of personal data in order to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under any applicable EU law or the law of any country where the GDPR applies in full or in part.
d) Processing of personal data to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.
f) Processing of personal data for the purpose of safeguarding our legitimate interests or those of third parties, unless the fundamental rights and freedoms or the interests of the data subject override these interests. Such legitimate interests include, in particular, our commercial interest in being able to provide our website, ensuring information security, enforcing our own legal claims, and complying with Swiss law.
We process personal data for as long as is necessary for the purpose or purposes concerned. In the event of a longer retention obligation by virtue of legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we will limit processing accordingly.
Cookie Policy
This website uses cookies. These are small text files that allow specific user-related information to be stored on the user’s device when they visit the website. Cookies can, for example, help determine how frequently pages are used and how many users visit them, analyze visitor behavior, and make our services more user-friendly. The cookies remain stored at the end of your browser session and can be accessed again when you return to the site. If you do not wish this, you should configure your internet browser to refuse cookies.
You can generally opt out of cookies used for online marketing, especially for tracking purposes, by visiting the American site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the European site https://www.youronlinechoices.com/ch-fr/.

Privacy Policy for SSL/TLS Encryption
This website uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information, such as any requests you send to us as the website operator. An encrypted connection is indicated by the browser’s address bar switching from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock icon in the same location.
When SSL or TLS encryption is active, any data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Third-Party Services
This website may use Google Maps for map integration, Google Invisible reCAPTCHA for protection against bots and spam, and YouTube for video integration. These services from the American company Google LLC use, among other things, cookies; therefore, data is transmitted to Google in the United States. We assume that, in this context, no personal tracking takes place solely through the use of our website.
Google is committed to ensuring an adequate level of data protection in line with U.S., European, and Swiss privacy standards (Privacy Shield). Additional information can be found in Google’s Privacy Policy.

Privacy Policy for Newsletter Data (commercial emails)
The data included in these communications is stored in an automated file owned by this site’s owner. This data is used exclusively for sending you communications that may be of interest to you. For sending newsletters, the owner collects and stores personal data such as the contact’s email address, first and last name, and company name.

Privacy Policy Regarding the Right to Information, Deletion, and Blocking
You have the right, at any time and free of charge, to receive information about the personal data we have stored about you, its origin, its recipients, and the purpose of data processing. You also have the right to have this data corrected, blocked, or deleted. For this purpose, and for any other questions related to personal data, you may contact us at any time using the address provided in the legal notice.
Privacy Policy for Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). The statistics collected enable us to improve our services and make them more appealing to you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics to analyze visitor flows across different devices, accomplished through the use of a user ID. If you have a Google user account, you can disable this cross-device analysis of your usage by adjusting the settings under “My Data” → “Personal Data.” The legal basis for using Google Analytics is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google.
We would like to point out that on this website, Google Analytics has been enhanced by the code “_anonymizeIp();” to ensure that IP addresses are collected anonymously. This means IP addresses are subsequently processed in shortened form, thereby excluding the possibility of personal identification. If the data collected about you contains any personal reference, it is immediately excluded and the personal data is thus deleted. In only exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the United States and shortened there. On behalf of this website’s operator, Google will use this information to analyze your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide additional services to the website operator related to website and internet usage. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the United States, Google is subject to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield. Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser; however, please note that doing so may prevent you from using all the features of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie (including your IP address) and from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available via this link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
You can further opt out of Google Analytics by clicking on this link: “Disable Google Analytics.” An “opt-out” cookie will then be placed on your device, preventing Google Analytics from processing your personal data. Please note that if you completely delete all cookies on your device, this opt-out cookie will also be deleted. This means you must set the opt-out cookie again if you wish to continue preventing data collection. Opt-out cookies are stored on a per-browser and per-device basis, so you must enable them separately for each browser and device you use.
Google Tag Manager
Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows us to manage “website tags” through an interface and thus integrate, for example, Google Analytics and other Google marketing services into our online offering. The Tag Manager itself, which incorporates the tags, does not process any personal user data. With regard to the processing of users’ personal data, please refer to the following information on Google services. Terms of use: www.google.com/intl/fr/tagmanager/use-policy.html.

Privacy Policy for YouTube
This website uses plug-ins from the YouTube platform operated by Google. The provider is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our pages containing a YouTube plug-in, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. This informs the YouTube server about which of our pages you have visited.
