This website uses the content management system Cmsbox. The responsibility for the technical operation and hosting of this system lies with Cmsbox GmbH, Terrassenweg 18, 3012 Berne, Switzerland. To ensure Cmsbox GmbH is able to provide, verify and improve its services, it collects personal-related data. This comprises the following data:

Each time the website is accessed, the server infrastructure collects a range of general details about the access, which is saved in so-called log files. The name of the website accessed, the URL, the date and time of the access, the transferred quantity of data, a report about the successful access, the browser type and version, the user's operating system, the referral URL (the site previously visited) as well as the IP address of the user are collected. This data is required to check and ensure the functionality and security of the Cmsbo system.

Cmsbox uses the tracking system Matamo (formerly PiWiK) to evaluate visitor numbers. This collection of data helps Cmsbox GmbH to operate and improve the technical infrastructure, although it can be deactivated upon explicit request. The data is collected pseudonymised, meaning that any link to a user is no longer possible. The underlying logs are also deleted after 180 days.

The forms on our website are protected against unauthorised automated sending by Google reCaptcha v3. It is essential from a technical perspective for a large amount of personal data to be transferred to Google. Google is obliged to ensure a suitable level of data protection.

This website uses web fonts provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA to ensure the content is shown uniformly and in an appealing manner.

We use the map service of Google Maps from Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA on our website to show our company headquarters at Promenade 75, 3780 Gstaad. To use this map function, your web browser must generate a connection to a server of Google.

Before that, the access data is anonymised by shortening its IP address. This makes it impossible to link the data to a user.
