This privacy policy is intended to inform users of this website about the nature, scope, and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the website operator: Otto Jacques Gassmann AG, Weinplatz 3, 8001 Zurich, Switzerland, in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act and the Telemedia Act.

The website operator takes your privacy very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal regulations.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet can generally be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection against access by third parties is not feasible.

Access Data

The website operator or page provider collects data on access to the site and saves it as "server log files." The following data is logged:

  • Visited website
  • Time of access
  • Amount of data sent in bytes
  • Source/referrer from which you accessed the page
  • Browser used
  • Operating system used
  • IP address used

The collected data is used solely for statistical analysis and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to subsequently check the server log files if there are concrete indications of illegal use.

Cookies

This website uses cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website.

Common browsers offer the option to disallow cookies. Note: It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if you make the appropriate settings.

Handling of Personal Data

The website operator collects, uses, and discloses your personal data only if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the data collection.

Personal data is all information that serves to identify you and that can be traced back to you – for example, your name, email address, and telephone number.

User Account

To place orders via this offer, every customer must create a password-protected customer account. This includes an overview of placed orders and active order processes. If you, as a customer, leave the online shop, you will be automatically logged out.

The operator assumes no liability for password misuse unless it was caused by the operator himself.

Ordering Process

All data entered by customers during an order processing are stored. This includes:

  • First name, Last name
  • Address
  • Payment data
  • Email address

Data that is absolutely necessary for delivery or order processing is passed on to third-party service providers. As soon as the storage of your data is no longer necessary or legally required, it will be deleted.

Credit Check

To ensure your security and the security of the operator, the latter carries out a credit check before concluding a contract. In addition to checking past transactions with the operator and any changes to your personal data, the operator also uses third-party service providers.

Your personal data (name, address, date of birth) will be sent to Muster GmbH, Musterstraße 1, 12345 Musterstadt as part of the credit check.

 

Handling of Contact Data

If you contact the website operator via the contact options offered, your details will be stored so that they can be used to process and answer your request. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Handling of Comments and Contributions

If you leave a comment or contribution on this website, your IP address will be stored. This serves the security of the website operator: if your text violates the law, he wants to be able to trace your identity.

Subscriptions

You have the option to subscribe to the entire website as well as follow-up comments on your contribution. You will receive an email to confirm your email address. No other data will be collected in addition to this. The stored data will not be passed on to third parties. You can unsubscribe from a subscription at any time.

Google Analytics

This website uses the "Google Analytics" service, offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), for analyzing website usage by users. The service uses "cookies" – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is active on this website. The IP address of users is truncated within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This truncation eliminates the personal reference of your IP address. As part of the agreement on order data processing, which the website operators have concluded with Google Inc., Google uses the collected information to evaluate website usage and website activity and provides services related to Internet usage.

You have the option to prevent the storage of the cookie on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

Furthermore, you can prevent data collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to and used by Google Inc. by installing a browser plugin. The following link leads to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
Alternatively, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you on this website by clicking on this link. Clicking on the link above will download an "opt-out cookie." Your browser must therefore generally allow the storage of cookies for this to work. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will need to click the link again each time you visit this website.
