2. Principles
We process personal data only to the extent necessary to provide this website, to communicate with you or to deal with enquiries. The legal bases are, in particular, Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR (consent), (b) (pre-contractual measures at your request) and (f) (legitimate interest in the operation and security of the website). This statement complies with the GDPR and Swiss data protection law.
3. Website operation and server log files
This website is hosted by Vercel Inc. (USA). When you access the website, the hosting provider may, for technical reasons, record data in server log files, such as your IP address, date and time, requested resource, referrer, browser and operating system. This processing is carried out for the purposes of service delivery, IT security and error analysis. Where data is transferred to the USA in this context, this is based on the safeguards recognised by the European Commission (including Standard Contractual Clauses).
4. Contact form
If you use the form to request a callback, we will process the data you provide (name, email address, telephone number, details of your field of work or situation) to handle your enquiry and arrange the callback. In addition, we record which campaign page your enquiry came from. The data is transmitted in encrypted form to our contact and CRM platform (plattform.alphapenta.de), which is operated on our behalf by our technical service provider as part of data processing on our behalf. The data is not passed on to any other third parties.
5. Contact by email
If you contact us by email, we will process your details to handle your enquiry and for any follow-up questions.
6. Retention period
Enquiries are deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected, provided there are no statutory retention obligations to the contrary.
7. Cookies, local storage and audience measurement
On the campaign pages of this website, we use an analytics script provided by our technical service provider (integrated via plattform.alphapenta.de) to analyse website usage, such as pages visited, referrers, time of access, technical browser information and campaign parameters. This analysis is carried out only if you have given your consent via the cookie notice. Your decision is stored in your browser’s local storage (localStorage, key “ascConsent”) and can be reset at any time by clearing your browser’s website data. We do not use advertising networks or tracking services provided by other third parties.
