2. Data collected and purposes
Contact form
When you use the contact form, the practice receives your name, email address, optional telephone number, subject and message. These data are used solely to answer your administrative or appointment request and to follow up on it where necessary. Please do not submit sensitive medical information through this form.
Technical data
The web server may process technical information required to deliver and secure the website, such as the date and time of access, requested page, browser information and IP address.
Audience measurement
Google Analytics is loaded only if you accept analytics cookies. It is used to measure website traffic. Advertising storage and personalisation remain disabled. You can withdraw or change your choice at any time using “Cookie settings” in the footer.
3. Recipients and external services
Data may be processed by the practice and by technical service providers acting on its behalf where necessary to operate the website and email service. Google may receive analytics data after your consent. Links to Agenda.ch, WhatsApp and Google Maps lead to external services governed by their own privacy policies; no connection to these services is initiated merely by displaying these links.
Some service providers may process data outside Switzerland. Where required, such disclosure must be protected by an adequate level of protection or appropriate safeguards.
4. Retention
Personal data are retained only for as long as necessary for the stated purpose and to comply with applicable legal obligations. Analytics consent is stored in your browser for up to 183 days, unless you clear your browser storage sooner or change your choice.
5. Your rights
Subject to the conditions of the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection, you may request information about your personal data and, where applicable, request their correction, delivery, restriction of processing or deletion. You may also withdraw consent for future processing.
Requests can be sent to the email address above. You may also contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
6. Security and updates
Appropriate organisational and technical measures are used to protect personal data. No internet transmission is completely risk-free. This policy may be updated if the website, services or legal requirements change.
