Right to Rectification

In accordance with Art. 32 para. 1 FADP, you have the right to request that incorrectly stored personal data (such as address, name, etc.) be corrected, provided that no legal obligation opposes this claim. You can also request the completion of data stored by us at any time. A corresponding adjustment will be made immediately.

Right to Erasure

You have the right to have us erase the personal data collected about you if:

the data is no longer needed;
due to the withdrawal of your consent, the legal basis for processing has ceased to exist without replacement;
there are no longer any legitimate reasons for processing;
your data is being processed unlawfully;
a legal obligation requires this.

The right does not exist if:

processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information;
your data has been collected based on a legal obligation;
processing is necessary for reasons of public interest;
the data is necessary for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Right to Withdraw

If you have given us explicit consent to process your personal data (Art. 6 para. 6 FADP and Art. 31 para. 1 FADP), you can withdraw it at any time. Please note that the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on the consent until its withdrawal is not affected by this. Data for which we are legally obliged to retain will be deleted after the retention period expires.

Notifications to the FDPIC and Right to Lodge a Complaint

Data subjects can, in accordance with Art. 49 FADP, lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority if there are sufficient indications that data processing could violate data protection regulations. The supervisory authority for data protection in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).

Further information can be found on the FDPIC contact form: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch/edoeb/de/home/deredoeb/kontakt.html

If you suspect that your data is being processed unlawfully on our site, you can initiate a judicial clarification of the issue in accordance with Art. 32 FADP. As a rule, a lawsuit under Art. 28 et seq. CC should be pursued. If you are affected by data processing by federal authorities, the procedure is governed by Art. 41 FADP. In this case, too, you can contact the FDPIC (see reference to the contact form above).
