Data Security
To increase data security, STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG takes appropriate security measures. These include, for example, the protection of certain areas of the website through SSL encryption or passwords, and the restriction of access to personal data to employees and contractors of STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG who need to be familiar with the data to be able to work with it based on their specific purposes. However, keep in mind that no data sent over the internet is ever 100% secure or error free. In particular, emails may be non-secure. Unauthorized third parties may be able to access your data that you send over the internet. This may result in this data being made accessible to third parties, disclosed, altered in content or lost, or being subject to other problems. Even if the sender and the recipient are in the same country, data sent over the internet can leave the country and be routed to a country that has less stringent privacy requirements than your country of residence. STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG expressly points out that the transmission of data on the internet has security gaps and that protection against access by third parties is not always guaranteed. STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG is not responsible or liable for the security of your information while it is being transmitted to STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG over the internet.


Data Transfer/Transmission to Third Parties
STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG is entitled to transmit your data, in the context of the purpose for which it was collected, to related companies and their agents and third party service providers within or outside the country in which you reside or from which the data was transmitted, so that these third party service providers can use your data in the same manner in which STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG is permitted to. They are also obligated to comply with data protection regulations. Any other transfer of your data will only take place if this is legally permissible or if you have given us your consent to do so or if STUTZ IMPROVEMENT AG is obliged to do so under applicable laws, government regulations or a decision of a state authority or court.


Applicable Law and Other Provisions
Certain areas of this website may contain additional terms or conditions. If these are contrary to the Privacy and Use Conditions, the additional provisions shall apply.

Should individual provisions of these Privacy and Use Conditions be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions will not be affected. Instead of the invalid provision, a provision is to be entered which comes as close as possible to the meaning of the invalid clause.

The use of this website and these terms of use are governed exclusively by substantive Swiss law – with the exclusion of norms established by international treaty. The courts in Zurich are exclusively responsible for all disputes arising in connection with this website.
