The copyright and all other rights to content, images, photographs and other files on this website belong exclusively to Matthias Bernshausen or to the rights holders specifically named. Written consent from the copyright holder must be obtained in advance for the reproduction of any element.

General information

On the basis of Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the data protection provisions of the Confederation (Data Protection Act, DPA), every person 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 provisions and this privacy policy.

We point out that data transmission over the internet (for example when communicating by e-mail) can 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. In doing so, data such as pages accessed or names of the files retrieved, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being related directly to your person. Personal data, in particular name, address or e-mail address, is collected on a voluntary basis as far as possible. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Privacy policy for SSL/TLS encryption

For reasons of security and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the enquiries you send to us as the site operator, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the padlock symbol in your browser line.

When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

General disclaimer

All information in our internet offering has been carefully checked. We endeavour to keep our information offering current, correct in content and complete. Nevertheless, the occurrence of errors cannot be entirely ruled out, and we can therefore give no guarantee of the completeness, correctness and timeliness of information, including information of a journalistic and editorial nature. Liability claims for damage of a material or immaterial nature caused by the use of the information offered are excluded, unless there is demonstrably intentional or grossly negligent fault.

The publisher may alter or delete texts at its own discretion and without announcement and is under no obligation to update the content of this website. Use of or access to this website is at the visitor's own risk. The publisher, its clients and its partners are not responsible for damage, whether direct, indirect, incidental, specifically determinable in advance or consequential, allegedly arising from a visit to this website, and accordingly accept no liability for such damage.

The publisher likewise accepts no responsibility or liability for the content and the availability of third-party websites that can be reached via external links on this website. The operators of the linked pages are solely responsible for their content. The publisher therefore expressly dissociates itself from all third-party content that may be relevant under criminal or liability law or that offends against common decency.

Changes

We may adapt this privacy policy at any time without prior announcement. The version currently published on our website applies. Where the privacy policy forms part of an agreement with you, we will inform you of the change by e-mail or in another suitable manner in the event of an update.

Questions to the data protection officer

If you have questions about data protection, please write to us by e-mail or contact the person responsible for data protection in our organisation directly, as named at the beginning of the privacy policy.
