The European Union (EU) recognizes that Swiss data protection law ensures adequate data protection. The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (for example, name, address or e-mail addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis.

Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can always have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.
