The user has the right to revoke his consent at any time (by e-mail to data protection@auronos.com). The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

- the name and URL of the retrieved file,
- the website from which the access was made,
- the operating system of your computer and the browser you are using,

- the name of your Internet access provider.
This data is collected and processed for the purpose of enabling the use of our website (connection establishment), ensuring system security and stability, and enabling the optimization of our Internet offering, as well as for internal statistical purposes. In particular, the IP address is used to record the country of residence of the website visitor and to preset the language of the website accordingly. Furthermore, the IP address is evaluated in the event of attacks on the network infrastructure of www.auronos.com and for statistical purposes. In addition, when you visit our website, we use so-called pixels and cookies to display personalized advertising and to use web analytics services.

Failure to provide this information may hinder the delivery of our services.
We use this data only to be able to answer your contact request in the best possible and personalized way. You can object to this data processing at any time and request that we delete your data (by e-mail to datenschutz@auronos.com).

On our website you have the possibility to subscribe to our newsletter. Registration is required for this. The following data must be provided as part of the registration:

By registering, you give us your consent to process the data provided for the regular dispatch of the newsletter to the address you have provided and for the statistical evaluation of usage behavior and the optimization of the newsletter. This consent constitutes our legal basis for the processing of your e-mail address within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO. We are entitled to commission third parties with the technical processing of advertising measures and are entitled to pass on your data for this purpose.
At the end of each newsletter you will find a link that allows you to unsubscribe at any time. As part of the unsubscription, you can voluntarily inform us of the reason for the unsubscription. After unsubscribing, your personal data will be deleted. Further processing only takes place in anonymized form for the optimization of our newsletter.
The newsletter is sent via "Sendgrid", the provider twilio, 25-28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland. You can view the privacy policy of twilio here: https://www.twilio.com/legal/privacy. Sendgrid is used on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO and a contract processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 para. 3 p. 1 DSGVO.
The dispatch service provider may use the data of the recipients in pseudonymous form, i.e. without assignment to a user, to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimize the dispatch and presentation of the newsletter or for statistical purposes. However, the dispatch service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or to pass the data on to third parties.
The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from our servers as well as from the servers of the respective newsletter service provider after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data that has been stored by us for other purposes (e.g. e-mail addresses for the member area) remains unaffected by this.
We use third-party email marketing services to send our newsletter. Our newsletter may therefore contain a so-called web beacon (tracking pixel) or similar technical means. A web beacon is a 1x1 pixel, invisible graphic that is associated with the user ID of the respective newsletter subscriber. The recourse to corresponding services enables the evaluation of whether the e-mails with our newsletter were opened. In addition, this also allows the click behavior of newsletter recipients to be recorded and evaluated. We use this data for statistical purposes and to optimize the newsletter in terms of content and structure. This enables us to better tailor the information and offers in our newsletter to the individual interests of the respective recipient. The tracking pixel is deleted when you delete the newsletter. To prevent tracking pixels in our newsletter, please set your mail program to not display HTML in messages.

This consent constitutes our legal basis for the processing of your data within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO. We are entitled to commission third parties with the technical processing of advertising measures and are entitled to pass on your data for this purpose.
You can revoke your consent to the processing of your data at any time (at info@auronos.ch). After revocation, your personal data will be deleted.

The data you enter is usually collected directly by the provider concerned or, in the case of certain offers, forwarded to them by us. For such further processing of the data, the data protection provisions of the respective provider apply in these cases. The legal basis for the processing of the aforementioned data is the fulfillment of a contract within the meaning of Art. 6(1) lit. b DSGVO.

a) In general
AURONOS AG may use personal data of users of www.auronos.com to advertise its services (online and/or print advertising, etc.). AURONOS AG is permitted to pass on personal data to third parties for this purpose. The user expressly agrees to this use of his data.
b) Creation of pseudonomy usage profiles
In order to provide you with personalized services and information on our website (on-site targeting), we use and analyze the data we collect about you when you visit the website. In the corresponding processing, so-called cookies may also be used if necessary. The analysis of your user behavior may lead to the creation of a so-called usage profile. A combination of the usage data is only with pseudonymous, but never with non-pseudonymous personal data.
To enable personalized marketing in social networks, we integrate so-called remarketing pixels from Facebook and Twitter on the website. If you have an account with a social network included via this and are logged in there at the time of the page visit, this pixel links the page visit with your account. Log out of your account before visiting the site to prevent a link. You can make further settings for advertising in the respective social networks in your user profile. We base the creation of pseudonymized user profiles for advertising and analysis purposes on a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. The legitimate interest consists of direct marketing and analysis of the use of our website.
c) Re-targeting
We use re-targeting technologies on the website. This involves analyzing your user behavior on our website in order to be able to offer you customized advertising on partner websites as well. Your user behavior is recorded pseudonymously. Most re-targeting technologies work with cookies.
d) Google Ads Remarketing and/or Doubleclick by Google
This website uses Google Ads Remarketing and/or Doubleclick by Google, services of Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"), to serve ads based on the use of previously visited websites. Google uses the so-called DoubleClick cookie for this purpose, which enables your browser to be recognized when visiting other websites. The information generated by the cookie about your visit to these websites (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States (for more information about transfers of personal data to the United States, please refer to Section 12 below). Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website in relation to the advertisements to be displayed, compiling reports on website activity and advertisements for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. However, Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.
We also use Google Tag Manager to manage the usage-based advertising services. The Tag Manager tool itself is a cookie-less domain and does not collect any personal data. Rather, the tool triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. If you have opted out at the domain or cookie level, it will remain in place for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.
You can prevent re-targeting at any time by rejecting or switching off the relevant cookies in the menu bar of your web browser. In addition, you can request an opt-out for the aforementioned additional advertising and re-targeting tools via the website of the Digital Advertising Alliance at optout.aboutads.info.
e) Use of Google AdSense
This website uses Google AdSense, an advertising integration service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google AdSense uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. Google AdSense also uses so-called web beacons (invisible graphics). Through these web beacons, information such as visitor traffic on these pages can be evaluated.
The information generated by cookies and web beacons about the use of this website (including your IP address) and delivery of advertising formats will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. This information may be passed on by Google to contractual partners of Google. However, Google will not merge your IP address with other data stored by you.
You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

It may happen that content or services from third-party providers, such as city maps or fonts from other websites, are integrated within our online offer. The integration of content from third-party providers always requires that the third-party providers perceive the IP address of the user. Without the IP address, the content cannot be sent to the user's browser. The IP address is thus required for the display of this content. Furthermore, the providers of the third-party content can set their own cookies and process the users' data for their own purposes. In doing so, user profiles can be created from the processed data. We will use this content in a data-saving and data-avoiding manner as far as possible and select reliable third-party providers with regard to data security. The following presentation provides an overview of third-party providers and their content, along with links to their data protection declarations, which contain further information on the processing of data and, in part already mentioned here, opt-out options: External fonts from Google, Inc., https://www.google.com/fonts ("Google Fonts"). The integration of Google Fonts is done by a server call at Google (usually in the USA). Privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/, Opt-Out: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/.
This website uses the reCAPTCHA service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). The query serves the purpose of distinguishing whether the input is made by a human or by automated, machine processing. The query includes the sending of the IP address and possibly other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. For this purpose, your input is transmitted to Google and further used there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of reCaptcha will not be merged with other data from Google.
Your data may also be transmitted to the USA in the process. The processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation. You can find more information about Google reCAPTCHA and the associated privacy policy at: https://www.google.com/privacy/ads/.
This website uses the Google Tag Manager. This is a solution with which we can manage so-called website tags via an interface and thus, for example, integrate 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 the users. With regard to the processing of users' personal data, please refer to the following information on Google services.
Usage Guidelines: https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html.
In the context of the performance of contracts, we use one or more payment service providers on the basis of the Swiss Data Protection Ordinance and, where necessary, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. EUDSGVO. In addition, we use external payment service providers on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to the Swiss Data Protection Ordinance as well as and to the extent necessary pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. EU-DSGVO in order to offer our users effective and secure payment options. The data processed by the payment service providers includes inventory data, such as the name and address, bank data, such as account numbers or credit card numbers, passwords, TANs and checksums, among others, as well as the contract, totals and recipient-related information. The information is required in order to carry out the transactions. However, the data entered is only processed by the payment service providers and stored with them. We as the operator do not receive any information about (bank) account or credit card, but only information to confirm (accept) or reject the payment. Under certain circumstances, the data is transmitted by the payment service providers to credit agencies. The purpose of this transmission is to check identity and creditworthiness. In this regard, we refer to the terms and conditions and data protection information of the payment service providers. For the payment transactions, the terms and conditions and the privacy policy of the respective payment service providers apply, which are available within the respective website or transaction applications. We also refer to these for the purpose of further information and assertion of revocation, information and other data subject rights.
Payment services provided by PAYREXX AG, Burgstrasse 18, 3600 Thun, Switzerland. Privacy Policy: https://www.payrexx.ch/site/assets/files/2592/datenschutzerklaerung.pdf. The user agrees that his entered data will be forwarded to PAYREXX AG for the purpose of payment processing.
Payment services provided by SWISSBILLING SA, Rue du Caudray 4, 1020 Renens, Switzerland. Privacy Policy: https://www.swissbilling.ch/datenschutzerklaerung/. The User agrees that his/her entered data will be forwarded to SWISSBILLING SA for the purpose of payment processing.

We will only pass on your personal data if you have expressly consented to this, if there is a legal obligation to do so or if this is necessary to enforce our rights, in particular to enforce claims arising from the relationship between you and us. In addition, we pass on your data to third parties insofar as this is necessary in the use of the website for the provision of the services requested by you as well as the analysis of your user behavior. Insofar as this is necessary for the purposes mentioned in sentence 1, the transfer may also take place abroad. Insofar as the website contains links to third-party websites, we no longer have any influence on the collection, processing, storage or use of personal data by the third party after clicking on these links and we accept no responsibility for this.

We are also entitled to transfer your personal data to third companies (contracted service providers) abroad, insofar as this is necessary for the data processing described in this privacy policy. These are obligated to data protection to the same extent as we ourselves. If the level of data protection in a country does not correspond to that in Switzerland or the European Union, we will ensure by contract that the protection of your personal data corresponds to that in Switzerland or the EU at all times.

We use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data stored with us against manipulation, partial or complete loss and against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments. You should always keep your payment information confidential and close the browser window when you have finished communicating with us, especially if you share the computer with others. We also take internal data protection very seriously. Our employees and the service companies commissioned by us have been obligated by us to maintain confidentiality and to comply with the provisions of data protection law.

Cookies help in many aspects to make your visit to our website easier, more pleasant and more meaningful. Cookies are information files that your web browser automatically stores on your computer's hard drive when you visit our website. Cookies do not damage your computer's hard drive, nor do they transmit users' personal information to us. We use cookies, for example, to better tailor the information, offers and advertising displayed to you to your individual interests. Their use does not result in us obtaining new personal data about you as an online visitor. Most Internet browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or a message always appears when you receive a new cookie. Disabling cookies may prevent you from using all the features of our website.

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

On our website we use so-called tracking tools. With these tracking tools, your surfing behavior on our website is observed. This observation takes place for the purpose of demand-oriented design and continuous optimization of our website. In this context, pseudonymized usage profiles are created and small text files stored on your computer ("cookies") are used. a) Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other data from Google. We have also extended Google Analytics on this website with the code "anonymizeIP". This guarantees the masking of your IP address so that all data is collected anonymously. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. As an alternative to the browser add-on, especially for browsers on mobile devices, you can also prevent the collection by Google Analytics by clicking inserting a click on this link. An opt-out cookie will be set that prevents future collection of your data when visiting this website. The opt-out cookie is only valid in this browser and only for our website and is stored on your device. If you delete the cookies in this browser, you must set the opt-out cookie again. [Note Instructions on how to integrate the opt-out cookie can be found at: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gajs/?hl=de#disable. We continue to use Google Analytics to analyze data from Double Click cookies and also Ads for statistical purposes. If you do not wish this, you can deactivate it via the Ads Preferences Manager (http://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/?hl=de).
We use Google Analytics including the functions of Universal Analytics or Google Analytics 4 (GA4). This allows us to analyze the activities on our pages across devices (e.g. accesses via laptop and later via a tablet). This is made possible by the pseudonymous assignment of a user ID to a user. Such an assignment occurs, for example, when you register for a customer account or log in to your customer account. However, no personal data is forwarded to Google. Even if additional functions are added to Google Analytics with Universal Analytics or Google Analytics, this does not mean that a restriction of data protection measures such as IP masking or the browser add-on is associated with this.
b) Google Ads
We use the online advertising program "Google Ads" and within the framework of Google Ads the conversion tracking. Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days, do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification. If you visit certain web pages on our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Thus, there is no possibility that cookies can be tracked across Ads customers' websites. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Ads customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Here, customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that personally identifies users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies through a corresponding setting in your browser software (deactivation option). You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. Further information and the Google privacy policy can be found at: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/ and http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

The social plugins described below are used on the website. The plugins are deactivated by default on our website and therefore do not send any data. You can activate the plugins by clicking on the corresponding social media button. If these plugins are activated, your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of the respective social network as soon as you call up one of our websites. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly to your browser by the social network and integrated into the website by it. The plugins can be deactivated again with one click. For more information, please see the respective privacy statements of Facebook, Twitter and Google. a) Plugins from Facebook
Social plugins from Facebook are used on this website to make our web presence more personal. For this purpose, we use the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button. This is an offer from the US company Meta, 1 Hacker Way, Menio Park, CA-94025, USA. By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted by your browser directly to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly assign your visit to our website to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the "LIKE" or "SHARE" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook and displayed to your Facebook friends.
Facebook may use this information for the purposes of advertising, market research and demand-oriented design of the Facebook pages. For this purpose, Facebook creates usage, interest and relationship profiles, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide other services associated with the use of Facebook.
If you do not want Facebook to assign the data collected via our website to your Facebook account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website. For the purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy, please refer to Facebook's privacy policy at: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php
b) Plugins from Twitter
Plugins of the short message network Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA are integrated on our website. You can recognize the Twitter plugins (tweet button) by the Twitter logo on our site. If you have activated social plugins, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Twitter server. Twitter thereby receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click the Twitter "tweet button" while logged into your Twitter account, you can link the content of our pages on your Twitter profile. This allows Twitter to associate the visit to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of the pages, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Twitter. For more information, please refer to the privacy policy of Twitter. If you do not want Twitter to be able to associate your visit to our pages, please log out of your Twitter user account. You can find more information on data protection at Twitter at: https://twitter.com/de/privacy
c) Plugins from Instagram
Functions of the Instagram service are integrated on our pages. These functions are offered by Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA, 94025, USA. If you are logged into your Instagram account, you can link the content of our pages to your Instagram profile by clicking on the Instagram button. This allows Instagram to associate the visit to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of the pages, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Instagram. For more information, please see Instagram's privacy policy: http://instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/

For the sake of completeness, we would like to point out for users resident or domiciled in Switzerland that there are surveillance measures in place in the USA by US authorities which generally allow the storage of all personal data of all persons whose data has been transferred from Switzerland to the USA. This is done without any differentiation, limitation or exception based on the objective pursued and without any objective criterion that would make it possible to limit the access of the U.S. authorities to the data and their subsequent use to very specific, strictly limited purposes that are capable of justifying the intrusion associated both with the access to these data and with their use. Furthermore, we would like to point out that in the U.S. there are no legal remedies available to data subjects from Switzerland that would allow them to obtain access to the data concerning them and to obtain its correction or deletion, or that there is no effective judicial legal protection against general access rights of U.S. authorities. We explicitly draw the attention of the data subject to this legal and factual situation so that he or she can make an appropriately informed decision to consent to the use of his or her data. We would like to point out to users residing in a member state of the EU that the USA does not have a sufficient level of data protection from the perspective of the European Union.

You have the right to receive information about the personal data stored by us about you free of charge upon request. In addition, you have the right to correct inaccurate data and the right to have your personal data deleted, insofar as this does not conflict with a legal obligation to retain the data or an authorization that allows us to process the data. In accordance with Articles 18 and 21 of the GDPR, you also have the right to request restriction of data processing and to object to data processing. You also have the right to demand that we return the data you have provided to us. Upon request, we will also pass on the data to a third party of your choice. You have the right to receive the data in a common file format. You can reach us for the aforementioned purposes via the e-mail address datenschutz@auronos.com. For the processing of your requests, we may, at our discretion, require proof of identity. You can also tell us what you want to happen to your information after you die by giving us instructions.

All information on our website has been carefully checked. We make every effort to ensure that our offer up-to-date, correct and complete information. Nevertheless, the occurrence of errors cannot be completely excluded, which means that we cannot guarantee the completeness, accuracy and timeliness of information, including journalistic and editorial. Liability claims regarding damage caused by the use of any information provided, including any kind of information which is incomplete or incorrect, will therefore be rejected. The publisher may, at its own discretion and without notice, change or delete texts and is not obliged to update the contents of this website. The use of or access to this website is at the visitor's own risk. The publisher, its clients or partners are not responsible for damages, such as direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages allegedly caused by the visit of this website and therefore assume no liability. The publisher also accepts no responsibility or liability for the content and availability of thirdparty websites that can be accessed via external links on this website. The operators of the linked sites are exclusively responsible for their content. The publisher thus expressly distances himself from all third-party content that may be of criminal or liability law or are contrary to public morals.

We store personal data only for as long as is necessary, to use the above tracking, advertising and analytics services in our legitimate interest, to perform services to the extent you have requested or consented to, and to comply with our legal obligations. We retain contractual data for longer periods, as this is required by statutory retention obligations. Retention obligations that require us to retain data result from accounting regulations and tax regulations. According to these regulations, business communications, concluded contracts and accounting records must be retained for up to 10 years or, with respect to users residing in France, for up to 5 years.
