When you access the website, general information (e.g. IP address, operating system, Internet browser used, number of visits, average time spent on the site, pages viewed) is recorded automatically (i.e. not via registration). This information is evaluated and used to improve the attractiveness, content and functionality of the website.
The data will not be used to draw conclusions about your person.

2.2 When you contact us

You have the option of contacting us by e-mail or telephone, for example. Personal data is generally only collected if you provide it to us voluntarily. Therefore, you yourself are responsible for what data you provide to us. In order to be able to answer your request, we may ask you to provide us with additional information (such as your address, telephone number, etc.)
We only process this personal data if this is necessary to answer your request or to provide the services you have requested.

The data processed when using the contact form on our website will only be used to respond to your request or to provide the services you have requested.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored on your terminal device and make it possible to identify your terminal device.
We only use so-called absolutely necessary cookies on our website. These cookies are necessary for the functioning of our website. You can set your browser to block these cookies or to notify you of these cookies. However, the website may then not function or not function properly.

4. Data processing in connection with third-party platforms

We are present on third-party platforms such as Facebook. We have no influence on the data protection settings of these third-party platforms.
The operators of the third-party platforms (e.g. for Facebook: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited) process your data for their own purposes. In doing so, the third-party platforms also set cookies with which they can track usage behavior on other websites and apps of the group. This applies in particular if you are already registered on these third-party platforms. You can find more details on this in the respective data protection information of the operators.
We receive certain information from the operator of the third-party platforms, such as anonymized evaluations.

If your request (see sections 2.2 and 2.3) concerns a member of the AVIA Association (and not us), we will forward the request to the respective member of the AVIA Association.
We also use service providers commissioned by us to operate this website and provide our services. Our service providers only process your data to the extent necessary.

We only process your personal data in Switzerland and in the European Union or EEA.
