2. Processing Of Personal Data
2.1 Terms
Personal data is all information relating 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, collection, deletion, storage, alteration, destruction and use of personal data.
The European Economic Area (EEA) comprises the European Union (EU) and the Principality of Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) refers to the processing of personal data as processing of personal data.
2.2 Legal Basis
We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law, in particular the Federal Data Protection Act (DSG) and the Ordinance on the Federal Data Protection Act (VDSG).
We process – if and to the extent that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – personal data in accordance with at least one of the following legal bases:
Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to fulfill a contract with the data subject and to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data in order to protect the legitimate interests of us or third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms and fundamental rights and interests of the data subject prevail. Legitimate interests are in particular our interest in being able to provide our offer in a permanent, user-friendly, secure and reliable manner and to advertise it if necessary, information security and protection against misuse and unauthorized use, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with Swiss law.
Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under any applicable law of member states in the European Economic Area (EEA).
Art. 6 (1) (e) GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to perform a task carried out in the public interest.
Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR for the processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.
Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.
2.3 Nature, scope and Purpose
We process the personal data that is necessary to provide our services in a permanent, user-friendly, secure and reliable manner. Such personal data can fall in particular into the categories of inventory and contact data, browser and device data, content data, meta or peripheral data and usage data, location data, sales, contract and payment data.
We process personal data for the period required for the respective purpose(s) or as required by law. Personal data that no longer needs to be processed is anonymized or deleted. People whose data we process generally have a right to deletion.
As a general rule, we only process personal data with the consent of the data subject, unless the processing is permitted for other legal reasons, for example to fulfil a contract with the data subject and for corresponding pre-contractual measures, to protect our overriding legitimate interests, because the processing is evident from the circumstances or after prior information.
In this context, we process in particular information that a data subject voluntarily and independently sends to us when contacting us - for example by letter, email, contact form, social media or telephone - or when registering for a user account. We can store such information, for example, in an address book, in a customer relationship management system (CRM system) or with comparable tools. If you send us data about other people, you are obliged to guarantee data protection for such people and to ensure the accuracy of such personal data.
We also process personal data that we receive from third parties, obtain from publicly accessible sources or collect when providing our services, provided and to the extent that such processing is permissible for legal reasons.
Personal data from applications will only be processed if it is necessary to assess suitability for an employment relationship or for the subsequent implementation of an employment contract. The personal data required to carry out an application process arises from the information requested or provided, for example in the context of a job advertisement. Applicants have the option of voluntarily submitting further information for their respective applications.
2.4 Processing Of Personal Data By Third Parties, Including Abroad
We may have personal data processed by commissioned third parties or process it jointly with third parties or with the help of third parties or transmit it to third parties. Such third parties are in particular providers whose services we use. We also guarantee appropriate data protection for such third parties.
Such third parties are generally located in Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA). Such third parties may also be located in other countries and territories on earth and elsewhere in the universe, provided that their data protection law ensures adequate data protection in the opinion of the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) and – if and to the extent that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – in the opinion of the European Commission , or if adequate data protection is guaranteed for other reasons, such as through an appropriate contractual agreement, in particular on the basis of standard contractual clauses, or through appropriate certification. In exceptional cases, such a third party may be located in a country without adequate data protection, provided that the data protection requirements, such as the express consent of the data subject, are met.
3. Rights Of Data Subjects
Data subjects whose personal data we process have the rights under Swiss data protection law. These include the right to information and the right to correction, deletion or blocking of the personal data processed.
Data subjects whose personal data we process can – if and to the extent that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – obtain, free of charge, confirmation as to whether we process their personal data and, if so, request information about the processing of their personal data, have the processing of their personal data restricted, exercise their right to data portability and have their personal data corrected, deleted (“right to be forgotten”), blocked or completed.
Data subjects whose personal data we process can – if and to the extent that the GDPR is applicable – revoke their consent at any time with effect for the future and object to the processing of their personal data at any time.
Affected persons whose personal data we process have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority. The supervisory authority for data protection in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
4. Data Security
We take appropriate and suitable technical and organizational measures to ensure data protection and, in particular, data security. However, despite such measures, the processing of personal data on the Internet can always have security gaps. We cannot therefore guarantee absolute data security.
Access to our online offering is via transport encryption (SSL/TLS, in particular with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure, abbreviated HTTPS). Most browsers indicate transport encryption with a padlock in the address bar.
Access to our online offering is subject - as is generally the case with any use of the Internet - to mass surveillance without cause or suspicion and other surveillance by security authorities in Switzerland, the European Union (EU), the United States of America (USA) and other countries. We have no direct influence on the corresponding processing of personal data by secret services, police departments and other security authorities.

We can log such consents, including the Internet Protocol (IP) address and the date and time, for evidentiary and security reasons.
In principle, you can unsubscribe from notifications and communications such as newsletters at any time.

2. Processing Of Personal Data
2.1 Terms
Personal data is all information relating 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, collection, deletion, storage, alteration, destruction and use of personal data.
The European Economic Area (EEA) comprises the European Union (EU) and the Principality of Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) refers to the processing of personal data as processing of personal data.
2.2 Legal Basis
We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law, in particular the Federal Data Protection Act (DSG) and the Ordinance on the Federal Data Protection Act (VDSG).
We process – if and to the extent that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – personal data in accordance with at least one of the following legal bases:
Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to fulfill a contract with the data subject and to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data in order to protect the legitimate interests of us or third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms and fundamental rights and interests of the data subject prevail. Legitimate interests are in particular our interest in being able to provide our offer in a permanent, user-friendly, secure and reliable manner and to advertise it if necessary, information security and protection against misuse and unauthorized use, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with Swiss law.
Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under any applicable law of member states in the European Economic Area (EEA).
Art. 6 (1) (e) GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to perform a task carried out in the public interest.
Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR for the processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.

2.3 Nature, scope and Purpose
We process the personal data that is necessary to provide our services in a permanent, user-friendly, secure and reliable manner. Such personal data can fall in particular into the categories of inventory and contact data, browser and device data, content data, meta or peripheral data and usage data, location data, sales, contract and payment data.
We process personal data for the period required for the respective purpose(s) or as required by law. Personal data that no longer needs to be processed is anonymized or deleted. People whose data we process generally have a right to deletion.
As a general rule, we only process personal data with the consent of the data subject, unless the processing is permitted for other legal reasons, for example to fulfil a contract with the data subject and for corresponding pre-contractual measures, to protect our overriding legitimate interests, because the processing is evident from the circumstances or after prior information.
In this context, we process in particular information that a data subject voluntarily and independently sends to us when contacting us - for example by letter, email, contact form, social media or telephone - or when registering for a user account. We can store such information, for example, in an address book, in a customer relationship management system (CRM system) or with comparable tools. If you send us data about other people, you are obliged to guarantee data protection for such people and to ensure the accuracy of such personal data.
We also process personal data that we receive from third parties, obtain from publicly accessible sources or collect when providing our services, provided and to the extent that such processing is permissible for legal reasons.
Personal data from applications will only be processed if it is necessary to assess suitability for an employment relationship or for the subsequent implementation of an employment contract. The personal data required to carry out an application process arises from the information requested or provided, for example in the context of a job advertisement. Applicants have the option of voluntarily submitting further information for their respective applications.
2.4 Processing Of Personal Data By Third Parties, Including Abroad
We may have personal data processed by commissioned third parties or process it jointly with third parties or with the help of third parties or transmit it to third parties. Such third parties are in particular providers whose services we use. We also guarantee appropriate data protection for such third parties.
Such third parties are generally located in Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA). Such third parties may also be located in other countries and territories on earth and elsewhere in the universe, provided that their data protection law ensures adequate data protection in the opinion of the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) and – if and to the extent that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – in the opinion of the European Commission , or if adequate data protection is guaranteed for other reasons, such as through an appropriate contractual agreement, in particular on the basis of standard contractual clauses, or through appropriate certification. In exceptional cases, such a third party may be located in a country without adequate data protection, provided that the data protection requirements, such as the express consent of the data subject, are met.
3. Rights Of Data Subjects
Data subjects whose personal data we process have the rights under Swiss data protection law. These include the right to information and the right to correction, deletion or blocking of the personal data processed.
Data subjects whose personal data we process can – if and to the extent that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – obtain, free of charge, confirmation as to whether we process their personal data and, if so, request information about the processing of their personal data, have the processing of their personal data restricted, exercise their right to data portability and have their personal data corrected, deleted (“right to be forgotten”), blocked or completed.
Data subjects whose personal data we process can – if and to the extent that the GDPR is applicable – revoke their consent at any time with effect for the future and object to the processing of their personal data at any time.
Affected persons whose personal data we process have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority. The supervisory authority for data protection in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
4. Data Security
We take appropriate and suitable technical and organizational measures to ensure data protection and, in particular, data security. However, despite such measures, the processing of personal data on the Internet can always have security gaps. We cannot therefore guarantee absolute data security.
Access to our online offering is via transport encryption (SSL/TLS, in particular with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure, abbreviated HTTPS). Most browsers indicate transport encryption with a padlock in the address bar.
Access to our online offering is subject - as is generally the case with any use of the Internet - to mass surveillance without cause or suspicion and other surveillance by security authorities in Switzerland, the European Union (EU), the United States of America (USA) and other countries. We have no direct influence on the corresponding processing of personal data by secret services, police departments and other security authorities.
