Privacy Policy

The protection of the privacy of the users of our website is important to us. Most of our content can be used without registration. However, we use industry standard technologies to measure and improve the performance of our website and collect data for this purpose. In some cases we work together with external service providers. Insofar as we (or third parties on our behalf) collect and process personal data, we comply with the requirements of the Swiss Data Protection Act. In addition, we also comply with the requirements of the EU DSGVO, to the extent applicable. This privacy policy explains how we do this.

1. What data do we collect and for what purposes?

1.1 Automatic data storage when visiting the website
Our website can also be used without disclosing personal data. On the other hand, the server of our website temporarily stores information about access by users.

When you visit our website, our web server automatically stores data such as:

• the address (URL) of the called website
• Browser and browser version
• the operating system used
• the address (URL) of the previously visited page (referrer URL)
• the host name and IP address of the device from which it is accessed
• date and time

We use this data to ensure a smooth connection setup, the comfortable use of the website and to evaluate the system security and stability. We do not pass on this data, but we cannot exclude the possibility that this data may be viewed in the event of illegal behaviour.

1.2 Use of the contact form
The contact form on our website gives you the opportunity to contact us. If you send us enquiries using the contact form, your details from the enquiry form including the contact data you entered there, including the IP address will be stored for processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass this data on without your consent. The basis of this data processing is your consent.

1.3 Subscription to the newsletter
If you have subscribed to the newsletter, we will use your e-mail address to send you news about our company, products and services. You can unsubscribe at any time (via link in every news alert or by e-mail to info@www.neratec.com).

In addition to the e-mail address required for registration, you are free to enter your name and, if applicable, a company name. Your consent forms the basis of this data processing.

2. How we do use cookies on our website?

We may use cookies on our website to optimize our service. These text files are stored on your computer and enable the analysis of the use of our website.

You can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or a message always appears before a cookie is installed. A complete deactivation of cookies can lead to the website not functioning or not functioning completely.

The data processed by cookies is required for the above-mentioned purposes in order to safeguard our legitimate interests.

3. How do we use web analysis tools?

Through the measures listed below, we ensure that our website is designed and continuously optimised to meet requirements. These measures allow us to statistically record and evaluate the use of our website. This is a legitimate interest of ours.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to statistically evaluate visitor data (Google). Google Analytics uses cookies to analyse how you use the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

We use Google Analytics only with IP anonymization enabled. This means that your IP address in Switzerland, the European Union or the European Economic Area will be reduced. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, to provide reports on the activities of users on the website and to provide us with further services associated with the use of the website and the Internet. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. The IP address transmitted by your browser will not be merged with other Google data.

4. Order data processing

We have concluded a contract with Google for commissioned data processing. We fulfil the strict requirements of the Swiss and European data protection authorities for the use of Google Analytics.

5. Deactivation of data collection by google by google analytics

You can object to the collection of data by Google Analytics with effect for the future by installing a deactivation add-on (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en) for your browser.

6. Do we share your information with third parties?

We will only pass on your personal data to third parties if you expressly consent, if there is a legal obligation or permission to do so, if the passing on is necessary to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or if the passing on of data is necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you.

7. How secure is your data?

We take technical and organisational measures to protect your data against manipulation, loss, destruction or unauthorised access by third parties. When you visit our website, the SSL encryption method is used.

If you send us personal data by e-mail – away from this website – we cannot guarantee secure transmission and protection of your data. We recommend that you never transmit confidential data by e-mail without encryption.

8. What rights do you have with regard to your data?

You have the right to information, data correction, data deletion, restriction of data processing, data transferability, revocation of your consent and objection. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law, you can report this to us or to the responsible supervisory authority.

9. How can we change this privacy policy?

We reserve the right to change this data protection declaration at any time. Changes will be published on the website. Last release: May 2018.
