Privacy Policy

This Website is an internet site operated and maintained by Artidis AG (“Site”).

Protecting the privacy of the users of our Site is very important to Artidis AG (“Artidis” or “we” or “us”). Most of our content can be used without registration, however, we use industry-standard technologies to measure and improve the performance of our Site and collect data for that purpose. In some instances we cooperate with external service providers. If we (or third parties on our behalf) collect and process personal data, we comply with the requirements of the Swiss Data Protection Act. In addition, without being legally obliged, we also orient ourselves according to the requirements of the EU GDPR. This data protection notice explains how we do this.

 

WHAT DATA DO WE COLLECT AND FOR WHAT PURPOSES?

HOW DO WE USE COOKIES ON OUR SITE?

To optimize our offer, we use cookies on our Site. These are text files that are stored on your computer and enable the analysis of the use of our Site. You can configure your browser in a way that no cookies are stored on your computer or so that a warning is always displayed before a cookie is installed. A complete deactivation of cookies may result in the Site not functioning or not functioning completely.

HOW DO WE USE WEB ANALYSIS TOOLS?

Through the measures listed below, we ensure the needs-based design and continuous optimization of our Site. These measures allow us to statistically record and evaluate the use of our Site. This is our legitimate interest. We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (Google). Google Analytics uses cookies to analyze how you use the Site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Site is usually transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA. We only use Google Analytics with activated IP anonymization. This means that your IP address will be shortened in Switzerland, the European Union and the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the Site in order to provide us with reports on the activities of users on the Site and to provide other services related to the use of the Site and internet usage. Furthermore, Google will transfer this information to third parties if required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. The IP address provided by your browser will not be merged with Google’s other data. You may object to Google Analytics collecting the data with effect for the future by installing a deactivation add-on (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en) for your browser. Besides the possibility to install the deactivation add-on, there is another alternative to prevent Google Analytics from collecting the data. It is particularly interesting for users of mobile devices. Please click on this link to deactivate Google Analytics. You thereby install a so-called opt-out cookie that prevents the tracking of data on the Site. The function remains until the opt-out cookie is deleted. If the opt-out cookie has been deleted, it is sufficient to click on the link again.
