This privacy policy informs the users of this website of the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator “Widap AG” in accordance with the Swiss Data Protection Act. The website operator takes your data privacy very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory provisions. Keep in mind that the transmission of data over the Internet is generally considered to have security vulnerabilities. We cannot guarantee you full protection against access by third parties.

2. Access data
The website operator or the provider of the website collects data about all accesses to the site and saves these as “Server-Logfiles”. The following data is logged this way:

  • Website visited
  • Time of access
  • Quantity of data sent in bytes
  • Source/reference from which you ended up on the site
  • Browser used

  • IP address used

The data collected is used only for statistical purposes and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to review the server logfiles should concrete evidence point to illegal use.

3. Usage statistics
We record where our visitors come from over the internet, what kind of technical equipment you own and what parts of our offer you visit, without connecting this data to the personal data you may have provided during your visit. We also evaluate that data, in collaboration with our advertising partners, to identify trends and generate statistics – and, in the long run, to be able to better adapt our site to your needs – but then we delete the data.

4. Cookies

5. Handling of personal data
The website operator collects, uses and transfers your personal data only if this is permissible within the statutory framework or you consent to the collection of data.
