4. Cookies

We use cookies on our website (session cookies as well as temporary and permanent cookies). These are small files automatically created by your browser and stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. Cookies do not necessarily allow us to identify you.

The use of cookies serves to:

  • Track usage frequency, user numbers, and behaviors on our website,
  • Increase website security,
  • Enhance the user-friendliness of our information offering.

Additionally, temporary cookies are used to improve user experience. These are stored on your device for a specific period. When you revisit our site, it automatically recognizes previous visits and recalls your preferences and settings.

You can configure your browser settings to prevent the storage of cookies. Note that disabling cookies may limit your ability to use all website features.

By continuing to use our website and/or agreeing to this privacy policy, you consent to our use of cookies, including the collection, storage, and use of personal usage data beyond the browser session. You can withdraw this consent at any time by enabling settings to refuse third-party cookies in your browser.

5. Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., USA. Google Analytics uses cookies (see above). These enable Google to analyze the use of our website, including IP addresses, in the USA.

We have extended Google Analytics on this website with the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” to ensure anonymized collection of IP addresses (IP masking). When anonymization is active, Google truncates IP addresses within EU member states or other EEA agreement states, ensuring anonymity. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.

Google complies with the Swiss-USA Privacy Shield agreement, ensuring an adequate level of data protection. Google uses the collected information to analyze website usage, prepare reports, and provide related services to us.
