Privacy Policy
General information
The KEDA Foundation (hereinafter referred to as "we" or "us") attaches great importance to data protection. As a visitor to our website, you decide which personal data you wish to disclose to us. However, we would like to point out that by visiting our website and sending newsletters, we obtain information that enables us to find out how visitors use our website and newsletters and which information and offers are of particular interest.
This privacy policy is primarily based on the requirements of the Swiss Data Protection Act ("DPA"), but also on the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"). The specific legal basis that applies to data processing depends on the individual case.

Data processing on our website
General information
Your personal data will be processed if this is covered by your consent or if data processing is permitted by law. The legal basis for data processing is the execution or initiation of a contract, consent, a legal obligation or our overriding legitimate interests.
We process data that we collect when operating our website and our online presences.
General data processing
Data is processed for various purposes. As a rule, data is only processed when you contact us of your own accord, e.g. when you visit our website, when you communicate with us by email, when you purchase our goods and services and when you order newsletters or other information from us. We use this data primarily for the provision and further development of our services and website, for communication (e.g. responding to enquiries), for customer acquisition and customer retention, for advertising and marketing (provided consent has been given or you as an existing customer do not object). We may also use the data, for example, to safeguard our legal claims and their assertion and to ensure the maintenance of our business operations and the security of our IT infrastructure.
We process personal data that we receive from you or third parties involved or that we collect ourselves. For example, you or the data subjects yourself provide us with personal data when you contact us by e-mail or web form or enquire about our goods and services. If you register in person or make reservations via our website or request information material or other services, we require personal information from you. This includes, for example, name and contact details as well as information about the role of the person concerned in the company or organisation for which you or the respective contact persons work or on whose behalf you or they contact us. We also collect some personal data ourselves, e.g. from public registers or websites.
If you provide us with personal data via a third party (e.g. via your employees or other contact persons), it is up to you to inform them in a general manner about the processing by us or other external service providers.
We process the personal data within our area of responsibility in Switzerland. However, we may transfer the personal data to recipients (namely our processors, but also other third parties, authorities, etc.) who in turn process the personal data in other countries, including those that do not guarantee a level of data protection comparable to Swiss law. We will do the latter on the basis of consent or standard contractual clauses, or if it is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract or the enforcement of legal claims.
Cookies and tracking
We use so-called "cookies" on our website to identify the device you use to access our website. Cookies are small data elements that a website can send to your browser in order to provide you with better support for database-supported systems. However, you have the option of setting your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, automatically reject it or only store it for as long as you are on the website or have the browser open. You can therefore decide for yourself whether you want to accept them or not. If you block cookies, certain functions (e.g. language selection, shopping basket, ordering processes) may no longer work.
For site optimisation and statistical purposes, we collect so-called tracking data, which provides information about the surfing behaviour of users. Such tracking data, as we collect with Google Analytics, for example, does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about individual users. No persons can be identified on the basis of this data.
Our websites use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. or Google Ireland Limited google.com. Google Analytics uses cookies that enable us to analyse your (non-personal) use of our websites. Google Analytics is configured in such a way that your IP address is truncated by Google within Europe before being forwarded to the USA and all functions that would allow identification via any existing Google account are deactivated.
Based on our configuration of Google Analytics, we assume that the information we share with Google is not personal data for Google. Nevertheless, we cannot rule out the possibility that Google may use this data for its own purposes to draw conclusions about the identity of visitors, create personal profiles and link this data to the Google accounts of these individuals. If you have a Google account, you are identifiable to Google. Google will then be responsible for processing your personal data in accordance with Google's privacy policy.
You can prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website and from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link tools.google.com. You can find more information on this at tools.google.com or at google.com general information on Google Analytics and data protection. The data is stored for 26 months and then automatically and irrevocably deleted.
Google Maps
Our website incorporates map material from the Google Maps service provided by Google Ireland Limited. When Google Maps is used, Google processes and utilises data about the use of the map material by users. In particular, this may include IP addresses and - depending on the user's browser settings - location data. The setting of Google Maps cookies can also be rejected or authorised at any time in the cookie settings. Google may also process this data for its own purposes (e.g. marketing and market research purposes and to manage its platforms) and therefore acts as the controller. Please therefore consult Google's privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.
Social-Media-Plattformen
We operate sites on social networks and other platforms operated by third parties to which we link on our website. We receive data from you via these platforms (e.g. when you communicate with us or comment on our content) and from the platforms (e.g. statistics). The providers of the platforms can analyse your use and process this data together with other data that they have about you. They also process this data for their own purposes (e.g. marketing and market research purposes and to manage their platforms), and act as their own data controllers for this purpose. Therefore, please consult the privacy policies of the respective platforms:
Contact form
If you send us enquiries via the contact form, your details from the enquiry form, including the contact data you provide there, including your IP address, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions.
Duration of storage
We only store personal data for as long as is necessary for the processing of services and contracts, if there is a legal obligation to retain and document data, if we have an overriding private or public interest in doing so or if storage is purely technical (e.g. in the case of backups or archiving systems). If there are no legal or contractual obligations or technical reasons to the contrary, we will always delete or anonymise your data once the storage or processing period has expired.
Your rights
In particular, you have the right to information about the personal data stored about you and the purpose of data processing, the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing of your personal data, the right to object to processing, the right to seek a judicial remedy from a competent supervisory authority and the right to data portability/transferability. For all enquiries relating to your rights or other questions, you can contact us by email at info@alp24.ch or write to us at our postal address.
In addition, if applicable to you, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority at your place of residence, workplace or the place of the alleged data breach. The competent data protection authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (http://www.edoeb.admin.ch).
In case of doubt, we reserve the right to request proof of your identity.
Please note, however, that conditions and exceptions apply to these rights. Where legally permissible or necessary, we may refuse requests to exercise these rights. For example, we may or must retain or otherwise continue to process the personal data despite a request to erase the personal data or restrict processing for legal reasons within the scope of our statutory or contractual retention obligations.
You can revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time. Please note that the cancellation is only effective for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected.
Changes
We reserve the right to unilaterally change the content of this privacy policy at any time and without prior notice. It is therefore recommended that you consult our privacy policy regularly on our website.
