Applicable law<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We process personal data in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Data we process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.1 Server log files<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each time you visit, the server hosting the website automatically records technical data sent by your browser: IP address, date and time of the request, page requested, referring page, browser type and operating system. This data is used solely to deliver the website, keep it secure and analyse any malfunctions. It is not combined with other data and is not used to identify you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Legal basis: our legitimate interest in a secure and functional website (Art. 31 FADP; Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.2 Contact form, email and phone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The contact form asks for your first name, last name, email address, phone number, type of project and message. This information is sent to us by email via the Postmark email delivery service, and a confirmation is sent to the address you provide. A copy of these emails is kept for 14 days in the website\u2019s sending log for troubleshooting purposes and then deleted automatically; Postmark keeps them for no more than 45 days. The same applies when you write to us or call us directly. We use this information solely to respond to your enquiry, prepare a quote and, where applicable, prepare or carry out your works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Legal basis: the data you provide to us voluntarily, our legitimate interest in responding to you and pre-contractual measures taken at your request (Art. 31 FADP; Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.3 Interactive map<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Contact page displays an OpenStreetMap map. To display it, your browser downloads the map tiles from the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation, which receives your IP address and technical information about your browser in the process. No cookies are set.

When you visit, your browser downloads them from Google\u2019s servers, which receive your IP address in the process. Google Fonts does not set any cookies.

No content from these platforms is embedded in the website and no data is sent to them unless you click on these links. Once on these websites, their own privacy policies apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.6 Audience statistics (Google Analytics)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only if you accept it in the cookie banner, we use Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, to measure traffic on the website: pages viewed, length of visits, referring website, type of device and browser, approximate location. For this purpose, Google Analytics sets cookies (<em>_ga<\/em>, <em>_ga_*<\/em>) and receives your IP address, which it does not store. These statistics are aggregated; we do not try to identify you. Without your consent, the Google Analytics script is not loaded. You can withdraw your consent at any time using the \u201cCookies\u201d button at the bottom of the page. More information: <a href=\"https:\/\/policies.google.com\/privacy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google privacy policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Legal basis: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.7 Cookies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This website does not use any advertising or social media cookies. It sets technical cookies that are necessary for it to work: those that store your choice in the cookie banner, and those set by WordPress when logging in to the administration area. Google Analytics statistics cookies (see section 3.6) are only set with your consent. Details can be found in our <a href=\"\/en\/politique-de-cookies\/\">cookie policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not carry out any profiling or automated individual decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

Transfers abroad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The website is hosted in Germany and the map tiles come from the United Kingdom, two countries that provide an adequate level of data protection according to the Swiss Federal Council (Annex 1 to the Data Protection Ordinance).
