This privacy policy informs you about what data we collect, for what purposes we use it, and what rights you are entitled to.
3. Data Collected
Server Log Files
When you visit our website, our hosting provider automatically stores information in server log files. These include:
• IP address of the accessing device
• Date and time of access
• Browser type and version
• Requested page
This data is used exclusively to ensure the smooth operation and improvement of our website. We are unable to attribute this data to any specific individual.
We do not actively collect any personal data through our website. If you contact us via the contact form or by email, only the data you voluntarily provide will be processed.
Hosting Provider
This website is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. (101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA) and delivered through their content delivery network. Cloudflare processes server log data and may set technical cookies for security purposes (e.g., __cf_bm). Further information: Cloudflare 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 the contact form or email is processed for the purpose of handling your enquiry (pre-contractual measures or contract fulfilment).
Retention Period
Server log data is automatically deleted after 30 days. Data from contact enquiries is deleted after processing is complete, unless statutory retention obligations apply.
4. Cookies and Local Storage
No Tracking Cookies
Our website uses no tracking cookies. There is no third-party tracking of any kind.
We exclusively use localStorage in your browser to save your preference for the website’s appearance (light or dark theme). This is a purely technical, functional storage mechanism that contains no personal data.
Web Analytics (Cloudflare Web Analytics)
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics service provided by Cloudflare, Inc. 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.
5. Third-Party Services
Our website integrates the following external resources:
Google Fonts
We use typefaces from Google Fonts, which are loaded from servers operated by Google LLC. When fetching these fonts, your IP address is transmitted to Google. For more information, please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy.
CDN Services (main pages only)
On some pages of our website, JavaScript libraries are loaded from Content Delivery Networks (CDN):
• unpkg.com – for the Lenis smooth scroll library
• cdnjs.cloudflare.com – for the GSAP animation library
These services are only used on the main pages, not on legal subpages such as this one. When loading these resources, your IP address may be transmitted to the respective CDN provider.
6. External Links
Our website may contain links to external websites. We have no control over their content and accept no responsibility or liability for the privacy practices or content of external websites. We recommend that you review the privacy policies of these websites.
7. International Data Transfers
Through the use of Google Fonts, CDN services, and Cloudflare, personal data (in particular IP addresses) may be transferred to the United States. These providers have committed to maintaining adequate data protection standards, including through EU Standard Contractual Clauses and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. We ensure that an adequate level of data protection is maintained (Art. 16 nFADP).
