Data security
We take data security very seriously and use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or against unauthorized access by third parties. We continuously improve our security measures in line with technological developments.
Within our website, we use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser. You can tell whether an individual page of our website is transmitted in encrypted form by the closed representation of the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser.
Your rights
You have the right to receive information from us about which personal data about you is stored. You may also request the correction of inaccurate data or the deletion of personal data, provided that there are no legal obligations to retain such data or no legal grounds for permitting such data to be processed. Furthermore, you may under certain circumstances have the processing of your personal data restricted or object to it.
We draw your attention to the fact that the exercise of your rights may be subject to legal restrictions. We reserve the right to assert these restrictions, e.g. if we are obliged to store or process certain data, if we have an overriding interest in them (to the extent that we may invoke them) or if we need them for the assertion of claims. Please note that the exercise of your rights may under certain circumstances conflict with contractual agreements and may have corresponding effects on the execution of the contract (e.g. premature termination of the contract or cost consequences). Where this is not already contractually agreed, we will inform you in advance.
The exercise of your rights requires that you prove your identity (e.g. by means of a copy of your identity card if your identity cannot otherwise be determined). If you incur any costs, we will inform you in advance.
In the area of data processing within the framework of dosimetry, you can only assert your rights to the extent that these can be granted within the framework of the statutory provisions on radiation protection and dosimetry (see also below).
Changes
We reserve the right to amend this privacy statement at any time without prior notice. The current version published on our website applies.
We engage in the processing of personal data for a variety of specific purposes, including but not limited to:
Contractual Obligations: This encompasses all data processing activities that are essential for the initiation, execution, and conclusion of contracts between you and us.
Communication: This category involves the handling of data associated with communication, encompassing both the communication’s content and associated metadata.
Marketing and Information: We may send you informational content about our products or services through various channels.
Legal Claims Enforcement: There may be instances where we require personal data processing to assert and uphold legal claims.
Compliance with Legal Mandates: In specific circumstances, we process personal data to meet legal obligations. Please refer to Section 5 for details regarding data related to the Radiation Protection Ordinance.
Other Objectives: This category covers various purposes such as security measures, process enhancement, infrastructure development, service improvement, administrative tasks, analysis of user behavior on our website, and safeguarding other legitimate interests.
By providing transparency about these purposes, we aim to ensure clarity and compliance with data processing practices.
Under specific circumstances, we may share personal data with third parties. In the context of our role as a personal dosimetry laboratory, this sharing can occur with individuals or entities as stipulated in the Radiation Protection Ordinance (refer to Section 5 for details).
Furthermore, we may engage third-party service providers to conduct data processing on our behalf (known as data processors). These third parties are contractually obligated to adhere to the same stringent requirements that we uphold. They may include service providers in sectors such as IT, finance, consulting, or other domains where outsourcing is necessary.
In some instances, outsourcing may extend to international borders, potentially affecting countries worldwide. If data processing involves countries lacking adequate data protection measures, data transfer will only proceed once standard data protection clauses have been established and approved by the competent supervisory authority. This ensures the safeguarding of data privacy across borders.

We use Google Analytics with the functions of Universal Analytics on our website.

This is made possible by a pseudonymous assignment of a user ID to a user. This happens, for example, when you register for a customer account or log in for your customer account. No personal data will be forwarded to Google. The additional functions of Universal Analytics do not restrict the aforementioned data protection measures such as anonymizing the IP address or the possibility of objecting to the use of Google Analytics.
The data collected within the framework of Google Analytics is stored for as long as is necessary for the analysis of the website. The data is automatically deleted after a period of 50 months at the latest.
