10. Google Analytics 4

We use Google Analytics 4 on our website, a web analytics service provided by Google. Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use our website and how we can improve our offerings.

In this context, information such as accessed pages, sessions, interactions, approximate location data, browsers, operating system, and devices used may be processed in particular. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies for this purpose.

For accesses from Switzerland, the European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom, Google uses IP addresses to derive approximate location information. According to Google, the IP addresses are not logged or stored in the process.

Google Analytics is activated on our website only in accordance with the consent you have given via the cookie settings, provided such consent is required.

You can revoke given consent at any time via our cookie settings with effect for the future.

You can find more information about data processing by Google in the Google Privacy Policy.

11. Google Ads and Conversion Tracking

We can use Google Ads to promote our services via Google's advertising network and measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

If Google Ads is used on our website, we can use conversion tracking in particular. This makes it possible to determine, for example, whether a visitor performs an action relevant to us on our website after interacting with a Google ad.

Such actions can include, for example, visiting certain pages, making contact, or placing an order.

Cookies, ad identifiers, and similar technologies may be used for measurement, and information regarding ad interactions and subsequent actions may be transmitted to Google.

Google Ads and the associated tracking will only be activated on our website in accordance with the consent you gave via the cookie settings, provided such consent is required.

You can revoke given consent at any time via our cookie settings with effect for the future.

You can find more information about data processing by Google in the Google Privacy Policy.

We can use Microsoft Advertising to promote our services via the Microsoft advertising network and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

For this purpose, Microsoft Universal Event Tracking (UET) can be used. This allows us, for example, to track whether a visitor comes to our website after interacting with a Microsoft ad and performs certain actions there.

In this context, information regarding page views, interactions, technical device and browser information, as well as information about ad interactions, can be processed in particular. Microsoft may use cookies and comparable technologies for this purpose.

Microsoft Advertising UET is only activated on our website in accordance with the consent you gave via the cookie settings, insofar as such consent is required.

CURIAWEB is based in Switzerland. However, to provide our services, we also use providers and technical infrastructure outside of Switzerland. As a result, personal data may be processed, in particular, in states of the European Union and the European Economic Area.

When using international providers such as Google, Microsoft, or PayPal, personal data may also be processed in other countries, in particular if this is necessary due to the technical infrastructure of the respective provider.

When disclosing data to countries without an adequate level of data protection recognized by the Swiss Federal Council, we ensure appropriate protection through suitable guarantees, to the extent necessary. These may include, in particular, recognized standard data protection clauses. In cases provided for by law, a disclosure may also be based on a statutory exception.

15. Cookies, Similar Technologies, and Consent Management

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies. Cookies are small files that can be stored on your device or read when you visit a website. Similar technologies can include, for example, tracking pixels or comparable technical procedures.

Certain cookies and comparable technologies are technically necessary for the website and individual functions to operate properly. Other technologies may be used, for example, for statistics, analysis, convenience functions, or marketing.

To manage the cookies and similar technologies used and the related consents, we use the consent tool Real Cookie Banner.

Real Cookie Banner enables us to obtain, manage, and document required consents. In doing so, information about your consent decision, the time of the decision, and technical information necessary for the management and documentation of the consent are processed.

The processing of this information is carried out, insofar as necessary, for the fulfillment of data protection requirements as well as on the basis of our legitimate interest in the reliable administration and documentation of consents.

Insofar as consent is required for certain cookies, services, or comparable technologies, these are used in accordance with the selection you made in the cookie banner.

You can change your privacy settings at any time subsequently, view the history of your privacy settings, or revoke consent with effect for the future. You can find the corresponding functions on our page Legal notice.

16. External websites and services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites and services. If you follow such a link, you will leave the area of responsibility of our website.

The respective provider is fundamentally responsible for data processing by external providers. The privacy policy of the respective service applies.

17. Data security

CURIAWEB takes appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, unauthorized alteration, and other security risks.

The measures may include, in particular, access restrictions, encryption, security and access controls, data backups, system monitoring, and other technical protective measures.

Despite appropriate security measures, absolute protection against all risks cannot be guaranteed during data transmission over the internet and in electronic systems.

18. Retention and Deletion of Personal Data

We store personal data only as long as this is necessary for the respective processing purpose or as long as statutory or contractual retention obligations exist.

Once the purpose of processing ceases to apply, personal data will be deleted or anonymized, provided there are no legal retention obligations, legitimate interests, or other permissible reasons for further retention.

Different retention periods may apply to individual data categories. Business records and billing-relevant information are stored in accordance with legal requirements.

For data processed by external services such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or Microsoft Advertising, the retention and deletion periods provided by the respective provider as well as the settings made by CURIAWEB in the respective service may additionally apply.
