Transparent handling of personal data is very important to us. This data protection statement provides information on what personal data we collect, for what purpose and to whom we pass it on. We regularly review and update this privacy policy to ensure the highest level of transparency.

First and foremost, we process personal data that you provide to us or that we collect when operating our website. We may also receive personal data about you from third parties. These may be the following categories:
We process your data in good faith and for the purposes set out in this
privacy policy. In doing so, we ensure transparent and proportionate
processing.
If, in exceptional cases, we are unable to comply
with these principles, the data processing may still be lawful because
there is a justification. A justification reason may be in particular:
If you have given us consent to process your personal data for specific
purposes, we will process your data within the scope of this consent
unless we have another justification.
You can revoke your
consent at any time by sending an e-mail to the address given in the
imprint. Data processing that has already taken place is not affected by
this.
We may need to rely on the services of third parties or affiliates and engage them to process your data (known as processors). Categories of recipients are namely:
We ensure that these third parties and our affiliates comply with the
requirements of data protection and treat your personal data
confidentially.
We may also be required to disclose your
personal information to government authorities.
We may have embedded links to our social media channels on our website.
This is apparent to you in each case (typically via corresponding icons).
If you click on the icons, you will be redirected to our social media
channels.
In this case, the social media providers learn that
you are accessing their platform from our website. The social media
providers can use the data collected in this way for their own purposes.
We would like to point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the
transmitted data or its use by the operators.
Under certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to
companies abroad in the course of order processing. These companies are
obligated to data protection to the same extent as we are. The transfer
may take place worldwide.
If the level of data protection does
not correspond to that in Switzerland, we carry out a prior risk
assessment and ensure contractually that the same level of protection is
guaranteed as in Switzerland (for example, by means of the new standard
contractual clauses of the EU Commission or other legally prescribed
measures). If our risk assessment is negative, we take additional
technical measures to protect your data. You can access the EU
Commission's standard contractual clauses at the following link.

We store personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the
individual purposes for which the data was collected.
Data that
we store when you visit our website is kept for twelve months. An
exception is made for analysis and tracking data, which may be kept
longer.
We store contract data for longer, as we are obliged to
do so by legal regulations. In particular, we must retain business
communications, concluded contracts and accounting records for up to 10
years. As far as we no longer need such data from you to perform the
services, the data will be blocked and we will only use it for accounting
and tax purposes.
We will keep your information secure and take all reasonable steps to
protect your information from loss, access, misuse or alteration.
Our contractual partners and employees who have access to your data are
obliged to comply with data protection regulations. In some cases, it will
be necessary for us to pass on your requests to companies affiliated with
us. In these cases, too, your data will be treated confidentially.
Within our website, we use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) procedure
in conjunction with the highest encryption level supported by your
browser.
You can request information about the data we have stored about you at any
time. We ask you to send your request for information together with proof
of identity to info@pmfa.ch.
You also have the right to receive your data in a common file format if
we process your data automatically and if:
We may restrict or refuse to provide information or data if this conflicts
with our legal obligations, our own legitimate interests, public interests
or the interests of a third party.
The processing of your
request is subject to the statutory processing period of 30 days. However,
we may extend this period due to a high volume of requests, for legal or
technical reasons, or because we need more detailed information from you.
You will be informed of the extension of the deadline in good time, at
least in text form.
You have the option of requesting the deletion or correction of your data
at any time. We may reject the request if statutory provisions oblige us
to store the data for a longer period or to retain it unchanged or if your
request conflicts with a legal requirement.
Please note that
exercising your rights may be in conflict with contractual agreements and
may have corresponding effects on the performance of the contract (e.g.
premature termination of the contract or cost consequences).
If you are affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to enforce your rights in court or to file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch
We may change this privacy policy at any time. The changes will be published on https://www.pmfa.ch/, you will not be informed separately.

This data cannot be assigned to a specific person and there is no merging of this data with other data sources. The log files are stored in order to guarantee the functionality of the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. This is our legitimate interest.
The data is only stored for as long as is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Accordingly, the data is deleted after the end of each session. The storage of the log files is mandatory for the operation of the website, you therefore have no possibility to object.

website and allows you to conveniently use the map function, for example,
to search for a location or to plan your journey.

the website, Google receives the information that you have called up the
corresponding sub-page of our website. In addition, further data, in
particular your IP address, is transmitted to Google and stored on Google

occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which

Google
stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for purposes of
advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website.
Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are
not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising.
