Privacy policy
Translation of the German version. In the event of any discrepancy, only the German version is binding.
In this privacy policy, we explain which personal data we process in connection with our activities, including our restful app (app.getrestful.ch). In particular, we explain why, how and where we process personal data. We also inform you about the rights of the people whose data we process. Additional privacy policies and other legal documents such as general terms and conditions, terms of use or conditions of participation may apply to individual or additional activities. We are subject to Swiss data protection law and to any applicable foreign data protection law, in particular that of the European Union (EU) with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The European Commission recognises that Swiss data protection law ensures adequate data protection.

General
Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the federal data protection provisions (Federal Act on Data Protection, FADP), everyone has the right to protection of their privacy and to protection against misuse of their personal data. The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. In cooperation with our hosting providers, we do our best to protect the databases against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or falsification. Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible. By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing and use of data as described below. This website can generally be visited without registration. Data such as the pages visited or the names of files accessed, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes, without this data being directly linked to you personally. Where personal data (for example name, address or email addresses) is collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.
Processing of personal data
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable person. A data subject is a person whose personal data is processed. Processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular the storage, disclosure, collection, erasure, retention, alteration, destruction and use of personal data. We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. If and to the extent that the EU GDPR applies, we also process personal data on the following legal bases in conjunction with Art. 6(1) GDPR:
- (a) Processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.
- (b) Processing of personal data to perform a contract with the data subject and to carry out corresponding pre-contractual measures.
- (c) Processing of personal data to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable EU law or the applicable law of a country in which the GDPR applies in whole or in part.
- (d) Processing of personal data to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
- (f) Processing of personal data to safeguard our legitimate interests or those of third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms, rights and interests of the data subject prevail. Legitimate interests include in particular our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with Swiss law.
We process personal data for as long as is necessary for the respective purpose or purposes. Where longer-term retention obligations apply due to legal or other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict processing accordingly.
Contact form
If you send us enquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the enquiry form, including the contact details you enter there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
Newsletter
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we need your email address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected. We use this data exclusively to send the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
Once you have given your consent to the storage of the data and the email address and their use for sending the newsletter, you can withdraw it at any time, for example via the unsubscribe link in the newsletter.
Google WebFonts
For the consistent display of fonts, this website uses web fonts provided by Google. When you open a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font from your computer is used.
Further information on Google Web Fonts can be found at developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy: google.com/policies/privacy.
Google Tag Manager
Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows us to manage website tags via an interface and thus integrate, for example, Google Analytics and other Google marketing services into our online offering. The Tag Manager itself, which implements the tags, does not process any personal data of users. With regard to the processing of users’ personal data, please refer to the following information on Google’s services. Usage policy: google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html.
Sending the newsletter: Mailchimp
The newsletter is sent via the service provider “MailChimp”, a newsletter platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA. You can view the service provider’s privacy policy here. Rocket Science Group LLC d/b/a MailChimp is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thus offers a guarantee of compliance with the European level of data protection (Privacy Shield). The service provider is used on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR and a data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28(3) sentence 1 GDPR. The service provider may use recipients’ data in pseudonymised form, i.e. without assigning it to a user, to optimise or improve its own services, e.g. for the technical optimisation of the sending and display of newsletters or for statistical purposes. However, the service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them itself or to pass it on to third parties.
Data transfer to the USA
Our website includes, among other things, tools from companies based in the USA. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to the US servers of the respective companies. Please note that the USA is not a safe third country within the meaning of EU data protection law. US companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you, as the data subject, being able to take legal action against this. It therefore cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) process, analyse and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.
Changes
We may change this privacy policy at any time without prior notice. The current version published on our website applies. Where the privacy policy is part of an agreement with you, we will inform you of the change by email or in another appropriate way in the event of an update.
Disclaimer
The author accepts no liability for the correctness, accuracy, timeliness, reliability and completeness of the information.
Liability claims against the author for material or immaterial damage arising from access to or use or non-use of the published information, from misuse of the connection or from technical faults are excluded. All offers are non-binding.
