This privacy policy explains what data we collect when you visit our website, how we use it, and what rights you have.
3. Data Collected
Server log data: When you visit our website, technical data is automatically collected by the hosting provider. This includes your IP address, date and time of access, pages visited, browser type, and operating system. This data is used to ensure secure and stable operation and is not merged with other data sources.
Contact: If you contact us by email, the data you voluntarily provide (e.g., name, email address, message content) will be used exclusively to process your enquiry. This data will not be shared with third parties unless necessary to fulfil your request.
Hosting Provider
This website is hosted by Hostpoint AG (Neue Jonastrasse 60, 8640 Rapperswil-Jona, Switzerland). Hostpoint processes server log data on our behalf. All data processing takes place in Switzerland. Further information: Hostpoint Privacy Policy.
Legal Basis
Server log data is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in the security and stability of the website (Art. 31 para. 1 nFADP). Data you provide via email is processed for the purpose of handling your enquiry (pre-contractual measures or contract fulfilment).

Server log data is automatically deleted after 30 days. Data from contact enquiries is deleted after processing is complete, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

This service collects no personal data, sets no cookies, and does not create individual visitor profiles. Only aggregated usage data is collected (e.g., page views, referral sources, country). It is not possible to trace this data back to individual persons.
Legal basis: Legitimate interest in analysing website usage (Art. 31 nDSG, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Further information: Cloudflare Web Analytics.
