The topic of data protection is very important to us. At this point you will find valuable information about your personal data protection.

Scope

This privacy statement informs users about the nature, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data by the responsible provider, Verein Switzerland Innovation Park Central, Suurstoffi 18b, CH-6343 Rotkreuz, phone: +41 41 531 13 23, e-mail: cbc@building-excellence.ch on this website.

The Switzerland Innovation Park Central association has been commissioned by the partner organisations that have signed the "Charta for Circular Construction" to operate this website.

Access data/server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. Access data includes:

  • Name of the accessed web page
  • Date and time of retrieval
  • data volume transferred
  • Message about successful retrieval
  • Browser type and version, the user’s operating system
  • Referrer URL (the URL referring to our website, e.g. Google search)
  • IP address and the requesting provider.

The provider uses the log data only for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operation, security and optimization of the offer. However, the provider reserves the right to check the log data retrospectively if there is a justified suspicion of unlawful use on the basis of concrete indications.

Handling of personal data

Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. information that can be traced back to a person. This includes the name, email address or phone number. But also data about preferences, hobbies, memberships or which websites were viewed by someone count as personal data.

Personal data is only collected, used and passed on by the provider if this is permitted by law or if the users consent to the collection of data.

Protection of personal data

We have taken technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss, destruction, manipulation and unauthorized access. Our security measures are continuously revised and optimised in line with technological developments.

When you use a service on our website, your personal data is transmitted to us. To ensure that these do not fall into the wrong hands, we encrypt them using the SSL process (Secure Socket Layer). The SSL procedure is currently the most common and most secure data transmission procedure on the Internet.

How does the SSL procedure work?

The SSL (Secure Socket Layer) process protects data that a customer sends over the Internet to a company’s server. SSL provides a triple layer of protection:

  • Your input to be transmitted is encrypted.
  • It is ensured that the form is only returned to the server from which it was opened.
  • It is checked whether the data reaches its respective recipient completely and unchanged.

SSL is used whenever you see a small (usually green) lock in the bottom left corner of your browser’s status bar.

Dealing with contact requests

When contacting us via our contact form, the user’s details are stored for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event that follow-up questions arise. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

Handling of newsletter data

If you would like to receive our newsletter via our website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No other data is collected. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time.

Use of third party services and content

It may happen that third party content, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites are integrated within this online offer. This always requires that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) are aware of the IP address of the user. Because without the IP address, they could not send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore required for the display of this content. We endeavour to use only such content whose respective providers use the IP address only for the delivery of the content. However, we have no influence if the third party providers store the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. As far as this is known to us, we inform the users about it.

Use of data for specific purposes

We adhere to the principle of purpose-related data use and collect, process and store your personal data only for the purposes for which you have provided it to us. Your personal data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, unless this is necessary for the provision of the service or the execution of the contract. Also the transmission to state institution and authorities entitled to information takes place only in the context of the legal obligations to provide information or if we are obligated by a judicial decision to provide information.

We also take internal data protection very seriously. Our employees and the service companies commissioned by us have been obligated by us to maintain confidentiality and to comply with the provisions of data protection law.
