The protection of your data and transparency is very important to us. Should any part of these provisions prove to be unenforceable, invalid or incomplete, it shall be replaced by a valid and enforceable provision whose effect comes as close as possible to the economic objective that we pursued with the invalid, unenforceable or incomplete provision.

Within the scope of the data protection law applicable to you and insofar as provided therein (such as in the case of the GDPR), you have the right to information, correction, deletion, the right to restrict data processing and otherwise to object to our data processing, as well as to the surrender of certain personal data for the purpose of transfer to another entity (so-called data portability). Please note, however, that we reserve the right to enforce the restrictions provided for by law on our part. For example, if we are obliged to store or process certain data, have an overriding interest in doing so (insofar as we are entitled to rely on this) or require it for the assertion of claims. If there are any costs for you, we will inform you in advance. We have already informed you about the possibility of revoking your consent in section 4. Note that exercising these rights may conflict with contractual agreements and may have consequences such as early termination of the contract or cost consequences. We will inform you in advance if this is not already contractually or legally regulated.

The exercise of such rights usually requires that you clearly prove your identity (e.g. by means of a copy of your ID card, where your identity is otherwise not clear or cannot be verified). To exercise your rights, you can contact us at the address given in section 2.

In addition, every data subject has the right to enforce his or her claims in court or to file a complaint with the competent data protection authority. The competent data protection authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (www.edoeb.admin.ch).
