Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, a company incorporated and operated under the laws of Ireland (registration number: 368047) with its registered office at Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (hereinafter "Google Analytics").
Google Analytics uses so-called cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will generally be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.
However, if IP anonymization is enabled on this website, Google will previously truncate your IP address within member states of the European Union or other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Data transfer and transmission abroad
In principle, we use your personal data only within our company.

In the event that we outsource certain parts of the data processing (“contract processing”), we contractually oblige contract processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR and the Swiss Data Protection Act and to guarantee the protection of the rights of the data subject.
A data transfer to places or persons outside the EU or Switzerland does not take place and is not planned. The only exception to this is described in point 7.
