General remark

Based on Arti­cle 13 of the Swiss Fed­er­al Con­sti­tu­tion and the data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­sions of the Con­fed­er­a­tion (Data Pro­tec­tion Act, DSG ), every per­son has the right to pro­tec­tion of their pri­va­cy and 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 statu­to­ry data pro­tec­tion reg­u­la­tions and this data pro­tec­tion dec­la­ra­tion.

In coop­er­a­tion with our host­ing providers, we strive to pro­tect the data­bas­es as well as pos­si­ble from out­side access, loss, mis­use or coun­ter­feit­ing.

We would like to point out that data trans­mis­sion over the Inter­net (e.g. when com­mu­ni­cat­ing by email) can have secu­ri­ty gaps. It is not pos­si­ble to com­plete­ly pro­tect data from access by third par­ties.

By using this web­site, you agree to the col­lec­tion, pro­cess­ing and use of data as described below. This web­site can gen­er­al­ly be vis­it­ed with­out reg­is­tra­tion. Data such as pages viewed or the name of the file accessed, date and time are stored on the serv­er for sta­tis­ti­cal pur­pos­es, with­out this data being direct­ly relat­ed to you. Per­son­al data, in par­tic­u­lar name, address or email address, are col­lect­ed on a vol­un­tary basis as far as pos­si­ble. The data will not be passed on to third par­ties with­out your con­sent.

Processing of personal data

Per­son­al data is all infor­ma­tion that relates to a spe­cif­ic or iden­ti­fi­able per­son. A data sub­ject is a per­son who is used to process per­son­al data. Edit­ing includes every han­dling of per­son­al data, regard­less of the means and pro­ce­dures used, in par­tic­u­lar the stor­age, dis­clo­sure, pro­cure­ment, dele­tion, stor­age, mod­i­fi­ca­tion, destruc­tion and use of per­son­al data.

We process per­son­al data in accor­dance with Swiss data pro­tec­tion law. In addi­tion, we process — inso­far as and inso­far as the EU GDPR is applic­a­ble — per­son­al data in accor­dance with the fol­low­ing legal bases in con­nec­tion with Art. 6 para. 1 DSGVO:

  • 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 ful­fill a legal oblig­a­tion to which we are sub­ject in accor­dance with any applic­a­ble EU law or in accor­dance with the applic­a­ble law of a coun­try in which the GDPR is ful­ly or par­tial­ly applic­a­ble.
  • 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 in order to pro­tect the legit­i­mate inter­ests of us or third par­ties, pro­vid­ed that the fun­da­men­tal free­doms and fun­da­men­tal rights as well as the inter­ests of the data sub­ject do not pre­vail. Legit­i­mate inter­ests are, 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 that is nec­es­sary for the respec­tive pur­pose or pur­pos­es. In the case of longer-term stor­age oblig­a­tions due to legal and oth­er oblig­a­tions to which we are sub­ject, we restrict pro­cess­ing accord­ing­ly.

Privacy policy for cookies

This site uses cook­ies. These are small text files that make it pos­si­ble to store spe­cif­ic, user-relat­ed infor­ma­tion on the user’s device while using the web­site. Cook­ies make it pos­si­ble, in par­tic­u­lar, to deter­mine the fre­quen­cy of use and the num­ber of users of the pages, to ana­lyze behav­ior of the page usage, but also to make our offer more cus­tomer-friend­ly. Cook­ies remain stored at the end of a brows­er ses­sion and can be called up again when you vis­it the site again. If you do not want this, 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 explained on a large num­ber of ser­vices, espe­cial­ly in the case of track­ing, via the US web­sitehttp://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU-web­site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ Fur­ther­more, cook­ies can be saved by switch­ing them off in the brows­er set­tings. Please note that not all func­tions of this online offer can then be used.

Data protection declaration for SSL / TLS encryption

This web­site uses SSL / TLS encryp­tion for secu­ri­ty rea­sons and to pro­tect the trans­mis­sion of con­fi­den­tial con­tent, such as inquiries that you send to us as the web­site 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 that you trans­mit to us can­not be read by third par­ties.

Data protection declaration for 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 ver­sion
  • Oper­at­ing sys­tem used
  • Refer­rer URL
  • Host name of the access­ing com­put­er
  • Time of the serv­er request

This data can­not be assigned to spe­cif­ic peo­ple. 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 uses 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, where­by we assume that no per­son­al track­ing takes place in this con­text sole­ly through the use of our web­site.

Google is com­mit­ted to ensur­ing ade­quate data pro­tec­tion in accor­dance with the Amer­i­can-Euro­pean and Amer­i­can-Swiss Pri­va­cy Shield.

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

Privacy policy for contact form

If you send us inquiries using the con­tact form, your details from the inquiry form, includ­ing the con­tact details you pro­vid­ed there, 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.

Data privacy policy for the right to information, deletion, blocking

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

Privacy policy for objection to advertising mails

We here­by object to the use of con­tact data pub­lished with­in the scope of the imprint oblig­a­tion for send­ing unso­licit­ed adver­tis­ing and infor­ma­tion mate­r­i­al. The oper­a­tors of the pages express­ly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unso­licit­ed send­ing of adver­tis­ing infor­ma­tion, such as spam e‑mails.

Use of Google Maps

This web­site uses Google Maps API to visu­al­ly dis­play geo­graph­ic infor­ma­tion. When using Google Maps, Google also col­lects, process­es and uses data about the use of map func­tions by vis­i­tors. You can find more infor­ma­tion about data pro­cess­ing by Google in the Google data pro­tec­tion infor­ma­tion. There you can also change your per­son­al data pro­tec­tion set­tings in the data pro­tec­tion cen­ter.

You can find detailed instruc­tions on how to man­age your own data in con­nec­tion with Google prod­ucts here.

Google AdWords

This web­site uses Google con­ver­sion track­ing. If you have reached our web­site via an adver­tise­ment placed by Google, Google Adwords will set a cook­ie on your com­put­er. The cook­ie for con­ver­sion track­ing is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cook­ies lose their valid­i­ty after 30 days and are not used for per­son­al iden­ti­fi­ca­tion. If the user vis­its cer­tain pages of 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 this page. Every Google AdWords cus­tomer receives a dif­fer­ent cook­ie. Cook­ies can there­for not be tracked via the web­sites of AdWords cus­tomers. The infor­ma­tion obtained using the con­ver­sion cook­ie is used to cre­ate con­ver­sion sta­tis­tics for AdWords cus­tomers who have opt­ed for con­ver­sion track­ing. Cus­tomers learn the total num­ber of users who clicked on their ad and were redi­rect­ed to a page with a con­ver­sion track­ing tag. How­ev­er, you will not receive any infor­ma­tion that can be used to per­son­al­ly iden­ti­fy users.

If you do not want to par­tic­i­pate in the track­ing, you can refuse the set­ting of a cook­ie required for this — for exam­ple, by set­ting your brows­er, which gen­er­al­ly deac­ti­vates the auto­mat­ic set­ting of cook­ies or set your brows­er so that cook­ies from the domain “googleleadservices.com” are blocked.

Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cook­ies as long as you do not want mea­sure­ment data to be record­ed. If you have delet­ed all your cook­ies in the brows­er, you have to set the respec­tive opt-out cook­ie again.

Privacy policy for Google Analytics

This web­site uses Google Ana­lyt­ics, a web ana­lyt­ics ser­vice pro­vid­ed by Google Inc., 1600 Amphithe­ater Park­way, Moun­tain View, CA 94043, USA. To deac­ti­vate Google Ana­lyt­ics, Google pro­vides a brows­er plug-in at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en. Google Ana­lyt­ics uses Cook­ies. These are small text files that make it pos­si­ble to store spe­cif­ic, user-relat­ed infor­ma­tion on the user’s device. These enable an analy­sis of the use of our web­site by Google. The infor­ma­tion record­ed by the cook­ie about the use of our web­site (includ­ing your IP address) is usu­al­ly trans­ferred to a Google serv­er in the USA and stored there. We would like to point out that the code “gat._anonymizeIp ();” has been added to Google Ana­lyt­ics on this web­site to guar­an­tee anony­mous record­ing of IP address­es (so-called IP-Mask­ing) . If anonymiza­tion is active, Google short­ens IP address­es with­in mem­ber states of the Euro­pean Union or in oth­er con­tract­ing states of the Agree­ment on the Euro­pean Eco­nom­ic Area, which is why no con­clu­sions can be drawn about your iden­ti­ty. Only in excep­tion­al cas­es will the full IP address be trans­ferred to a Google serv­er in the USA and short­ened there. Google com­plies with the data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­sions of the “Pri­va­cy Shield” agree­ment and is reg­is­tered with the “Pri­va­cy Shield” pro­gram of the US Depart­ment of Com­merce and uses the infor­ma­tion col­lect­ed to eval­u­ate the use of our web­sites, to write reports for us in this regard and oth­er relat­ed ser­vices to us to pro­vide.

Data protection declaration for Google AdSense

This web­site uses Google AdSense, a ser­vice for inte­grat­ing adver­tise­ments from Google Inc., 1600 Amphithe­ater Park­way, Moun­tain View, CA 94043, USA. Goog­leAd­Sense uses so-called “cook­ies”, text files that are stored on your com­put­er and that enable an analy­sis of the use of the web­site. Google AdSense also uses so-called web bea­cons (invis­i­ble graph­ics). These web bea­cons can be used to eval­u­ate infor­ma­tion such as vis­i­tor traf­fic on these pages. The infor­ma­tion gen­er­at­ed by cook­ies and web bea­cons about the use of this web­site (includ­ing your IP address) and the deliv­ery of adver­tis­ing for­mats are trans­mit­ted to a Google serv­er in the USA and stored there. This infor­ma­tion can be passed on by Google to con­trac­tu­al part­ners of Google. How­ev­er, Google will not merge your IP address with oth­er data that you have stored. You can pre­vent the instal­la­tion of cook­ies by set­ting your brows­er soft­ware accord­ing­ly; how­ev­er, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all func­tions of this web­site to their full extent. By using this web­site, you con­sent to the pro­cess­ing of data about you by Google in the man­ner and for the pur­pos­es set out above.

Data protection declaration for the use of Google Web Fonts

This web­site uses so-called web fonts pro­vid­ed by Google for the uni­form dis­play of fonts. When you call up a page, your brows­er loads the required web fonts into your brows­er cache in order to dis­play texts and fonts cor­rect­ly. If your brows­er does not sup­port web fonts, a stan­dard font will be used by your com­put­er.

You can find more infor­ma­tion about Google Web Fonts athttps://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s pri­va­cy pol­i­cy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Order processing in the online shop with customer account

We process our cus­tomers’ data in accor­dance with the data pro­tec­tion reg­u­la­tions of the fed­er­al gov­ern­ment (data pro­tec­tion law, DSG) and the EU GDPR, in the con­text of the order­ing process­es in our online shop, to enable you to select and order the select­ed prod­ucts and ser­vices, as well as their pay­ment and deliv­ery, or exe­cu­tion.

The processed data include mas­ter data (inven­to­ry data), com­mu­ni­ca­tion data, con­tract data, pay­ment data and the peo­ple affect­ed by the pro­cess­ing include our cus­tomers, inter­est­ed par­ties and oth­er busi­ness part­ners. The pro­cess­ing takes place for the pur­pose of pro­vid­ing con­trac­tu­al ser­vices in the con­text of oper­at­ing an online shop, billing, deliv­ery and cus­tomer ser­vices. Here we set ses­sion cook­ies, e.g. for stor­ing the con­tents of the shop­ping cart and per­ma­nent cook­ies, e.g. to save the login sta­tus.

Pro­cess­ing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b (Exe­cu­tion of order process­es) and c (Archiv­ing required by law) GDPR. The infor­ma­tion marked as required is required to jus­ti­fy and ful­fill the con­tract. We only dis­close the data to third par­ties with­in the scope of deliv­ery, pay­ment or with­in the scope of legal per­mits and oblig­a­tions. The data will only be processed in third coun­tries if this is nec­es­sary to ful­fill the con­tract (e.g. at the cus­tomer’s request for deliv­ery or pay­ment).

Users can option­al­ly cre­ate a user account, in par­tic­u­lar by view­ing their orders. As part of the reg­is­tra­tion, the required manda­to­ry infor­ma­tion is com­mu­ni­cat­ed to the users. The user accounts are not pub­lic and can be accessed by search engines, e.g. Google, not indexed. If users have ter­mi­nat­ed their user account, their data will be delet­ed with regard to the user account, sub­ject to their reten­tion for com­mer­cial or tax law rea­sons. Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. c GDPR nec­es­sary. Infor­ma­tion in the cus­tomer account remains until it is delet­ed with sub­se­quent archiv­ing in the event of a legal oblig­a­tion. It is the respon­si­bil­i­ty of the users to back up their data if the ter­mi­na­tion is suc­cess­ful before the end of the con­tract.

As part of the reg­is­tra­tion and renewed reg­is­tra­tion and use of our online ser­vices, we save the IP address and the time of the respec­tive user action. The stor­age takes place on the basis of our legit­i­mate inter­ests, as well as the user’s pro­tec­tion against mis­use and oth­er unau­tho­rized use. This data is not passed on to third par­ties, unless it is nec­es­sary to pur­sue our claims or there is a legal oblig­a­tion to do so in accor­dance with. Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. c GDPR.

The dele­tion takes place after the expiry of statu­to­ry war­ran­ty and com­pa­ra­ble oblig­a­tions, the neces­si­ty of stor­ing the data is checked at irreg­u­lar inter­vals. In the case of statu­to­ry archiv­ing oblig­a­tions, dele­tion takes place after its expi­ra­tion.
