Our website is subject to Swiss data protection law, especially in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act. We regard the protection of your privacy as extremely important, and accordingly we now provide you with detailed information on how we deal with your personal data on this website.

You can visit our website without leaving any personal information behind. In our server log files we save only access data, which do not enable us to identify you directly. These include the names of the website pages visited, the date and time of the visit, the volume of data transferred and the internet access provider through which the visit took place. We use these data solely to improve our website, and to ensure that it can be accessed without obstruction.

We gather personal data when you contact us – using our contact form, for example, or to register for a course – and voluntarily give us information such as your name, e-mail address, phone number etc. Which personal data are gathered depends on the information requested. No credit card information is stored on the website. This is handled by the payment provider.
