Possibility of objection, revocation of consent and deletion

You can set your browser according to your wishes so that the setting of cookies is generally prevented. You can then decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept cookies or to accept cookies in general. Cookies can be used for various purposes, e.g. to recognize that your access device is already connected to our website (permanent cookies) or to save recently viewed offers (session cookies). If you have expressly given us permission to process your personal data, you can revoke this consent at any time. Please note that this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent until you withdraw it.

Data security and data protection, communication by e-mail

Your personal data is protected by technical and organizational measures during collection, storage and processing in such a way that it is not accessible to third parties. In the case of unencrypted communication by e-mail, we cannot guarantee complete data security on the transmission path to our IT systems, so we recommend encrypted communication or the postal service for information requiring a high level of confidentiality.

Duration of data storage and rights of the data subject

Duration of storage

We only store personal data to the extent and for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the personal data was collected, we have a legitimate overriding interest in the storage or are legally obliged to do so.

Right to information

You have the right to request confirmation as to whether we are processing your personal data. If this is the case, you have a right to information about the information specified in 25 et seq. DSG or Art. 15 para. 1 GDPR, insofar as the information cannot be refused, restricted or postponed by the data controller (see Art. 26 et seq. FADP or Art. 15 para. 4 GDPR). We will also be happy to provide you with a copy of the data.

Right of rectification

In accordance with Art. 32 para. 1 FADP or Art. 16 GDPR, you have the right to demand that incorrectly stored personal data (e.g. address, name, etc.) be corrected, provided that this claim does not conflict with any legal obligation. You can also request the completion of the data stored by us at any time. A corresponding adjustment will be made immediately.

Right to erasure

In accordance with Art. 17 (1) GDPR, you have the right to request that we erase the personal data collected about you if

  • the data is either no longer required;
  • the legal basis for processing has ceased to exist without substitution due to the withdrawal of your consent;
  • there are no longer any legitimate reasons for processing;
  • your data is processed unlawfully;
  • a legal obligation requires this.

Pursuant to Art. 17 (3) GDPR, the right does not exist if

  • the processing is necessary for exercising the right to freedom of expression and information;
  • your data has been collected on the basis of a legal obligation;
  • the processing is necessary for reasons of public interest;
  • the data is required for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Right to restriction of processing

Pursuant to Art. 18 (1) GDPR, you have the right in individual cases to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

This is the case if

  • the accuracy of the personal data is disputed by you;
  • the processing is unlawful and you do not consent to deletion;
  • the data are no longer required for the purpose of processing, but the data collected serve the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims;
  • an objection to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR has been lodged and it is still unclear which interests prevail.

Right of revocation

If you have given us your express consent to process your personal data (Art. 6 para. 6 FADP and Art. 31 para. 1 FADP; Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR), you can withdraw this consent at any time. Please note that this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation. Data for which we are legally obliged to retain will be deleted after the deadline has expired.

Right to object

In accordance with Art. 21 GDPR, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you that has been collected on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (in the context of a legitimate interest). If you have given us your express consent to process your personal data (Art. 6 para. 6 GDPR and Art. 31 para. 1 GDPR), you can withdraw this consent at any time. Please note that this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation. You only have this right if there are special circumstances that speak against the storage and processing. Data for which we are legally obliged to store will be deleted after expiry of the deadline.

Notifications to the FDPIC and the right to lodge a complaint

Pursuant to Art. 49 FADP, data subjects may file a complaint with the supervisory authority if there are sufficient indications that data processing may violate data protection regulations. The supervisory authority for data protection in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).

Further information can be found in the FDPIC's contact form: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch/edoeb/de/home/deredoeb/kontakt.html

If you suspect that your data is being processed unlawfully on our website, you can bring about a judicial clarification of the issue in accordance with Art. 32 FADP. As a rule, an action under Art. 28 ff. ZGB should be sought. If you are affected by the processing of data by federal bodies, the procedure is governed by Art. 41 FADP. In this case, you can also contact the FDPIC (see reference to the contact form above).

Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 77 (1) GDPR

If you suspect that your data is being processed unlawfully on our website, you can of course seek legal clarification of the issue at any time. You also have every other legal option available to you. Irrespective of this, you have the option of contacting a supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 para. 1 GDPR. The right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR is available to you in the EU Member State of your place of residence, your place of work and/or the place of the alleged infringement, i.e. you can choose the supervisory authority to which you turn from the above-mentioned places. The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged will then inform you of the status and outcome of your complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
