Legal information, data protection
Scope of application
This is a website of Smart Gecko AG; its purpose is to inform its customers and to share news from our field of activity through articles.
Smart Gecko Academy is a commercial and visual trademark of Smart Gecko AG.
Liability for links
The foundation of the World Wide Web and of Internet 2.0 is the sharing of information. We want to contribute actively to the sharing of knowledge and experience. We support the dissemination and the weaving of the Web through links from or to this site.
We have no control over the content published on links to external sites: it is the responsibility of the provider or operator of the pages concerned. We make every effort to provide links only to sites that comply with legal provisions, while assuming the good faith of the publishers. Once a link is activated, it is not possible for us to monitor its content. If we become aware that content on a third-party site is unlawful, we will remove the link concerned without delay.
Copyright
Contributors to this site who publish content in the form of pages, articles or comments assign all of their copyright to Smart Gecko AG upon publication of their content and express their consent to this assignment of rights through their personal login.
The content and works published and produced by Smart Gecko AG on this site are subject to Swiss copyright law. Reproduction, adaptation, distribution and any form of use beyond the limits of copyright require written agreement from Smart Gecko AG.
Downloads and copies of our site are permitted only for private, non-commercial use and with acknowledgement of the source. Insofar as the content of our site is not created by Smart Gecko AG, the property rights of third parties are respected; in particular, third-party content is marked as such, e.g. by indicating a link to the site of the presumed rights holder. If, nevertheless, you become aware of a copyright infringement, we kindly ask you to inform us so that we can take corrective measures.
All registered trademarks, product and company names, or logos cited on our website are the sole property of their respective holders. All rights reserved.
Exclusion of liability
Smart Gecko AG declines all liability, including in cases of negligence, that may arise from access to or the impossibility of accessing all or part of the site, or from the use made of it. Access to the site and its use are not guaranteed. As the Internet is an open network accessible to anyone, the transmission of information is not secure and is comparable to sending a postcard, even if your browser displays a secure connection. Technically, even if the sender and the recipient are located in Switzerland, it is possible that the data may transit through foreign countries that have a lower level of data protection than Switzerland. Smart Gecko AG declines all liability regarding the security of data during its transfer over the Internet.
Data protection declaration
This data protection declaration governs the protection and processing of personal data. We attach paramount importance to the protection and security of personal data. Accordingly, we strictly apply the GDPR.

Collection and use of information
Any access to the Internet portal results in the recording of data (for example the date and time of access, the IP address, the item viewed, the browser characteristics, etc.). We are not able to associate this data with a person. You can assess the possibility of identifying individuals on the basis of this information (metadata) on the site of the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
The technical data is not subject to any evaluation. Only an anonymous analysis of the data is carried out for statistical purposes, for example to establish the daily number of visits to the site.
What is personal data?
It is all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.
Data protection
The data is protected against unauthorised or unlawful use by all available means and is treated confidentially at all times. In the event of misuse or loss of data, all parties concerned will be informed in detail and within the legal time limits of the events and the measures taken.
Processing of personal data
The personal data obtained will be used and processed only for specific and legitimate purposes. The data will not be passed on to third parties, unless a transfer is necessary by reason of legal requirements or if the user has expressly authorised it.
Consent
By accepting the data protection declaration, the person concerned consents to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purpose(s).
Right of access to existing personal data
Information on personal data may be obtained at any time from our Data Protection Officer. The person concerned has the right to demand confirmation of the processing of the personal data concerned and of the manner in which this processing takes place.
Right of rectification
The person concerned has the right to demand the immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data or to have incomplete data completed.
Deletion of data
The person concerned has the right, at any time, to have their personal data deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purpose that justified its recording. They may also revoke the authorisation to process the data or demand the restriction of its processing.
Duration of data storage
Personal data may be retained only for the period necessary or in accordance with the requirements of the legislator. If the purpose or the obligation to retain the data has lapsed, it must be deleted.
Registration on our website
When registering on our website to benefit from personalised services, personal data is collected. This includes the name, address, telephone number and email address as contact and communication data.
Registration provides access to services and content reserved for registered users.
Newsletter
Personal data is used exclusively for the purposes specified at the time of registration or to inform you of this service or of relevant circumstances. The data collected will not be passed on to third parties.
A valid email address is required to receive the newsletter. The IP address used to register for the newsletter as well as the date of this registration are also recorded. This data serves as proof in the event of misuse, in case an illegitimate email address is used to register for the newsletter.
It is possible at any time to revoke consent to the recording of the data, of the email address and of their use for sending the newsletter. A link allowing the revocation to be notified is included in each newsletter and on the website. It is also possible to communicate one's wish to revoke to the Data Protection Officer.
Contact form
When contact is made via the online form or by email, the data provided is recorded in order to be able to respond to requests and to ask questions that are as relevant as possible.
Integration of third-party services and content
Our offering also includes content, services and provisions from other providers. These include, for example, maps made available by Google Maps, videos available on YouTube, and graphics and images from other websites. In order for the user's browser to be able to access this data and for it to be displayed correctly, the transmission of the IP address is essential. The providers thus become aware of the IP address of the user concerned.
Even though we make every effort to use exclusively third-party providers that use the IP address only in order to be able to deliver content, we have no influence over the possible recording of the IP address. In this case, this procedure also serves statistical purposes in particular. As soon as we learn that the IP address is recorded, we draw our users' attention to this fact.

Cookies contain information about the browser used, the IP address, the operating system as well as the Internet connection. The website can also be accessed without cookies.

Google will use this information to evaluate the use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide the website operator with other services associated with the use of the website and the Internet. The IP address transmitted in the context of Google Analytics is not associated with other Google data.
Google AdWords
This website uses the Google AdWords online advertising programme. Insofar as our website has been opened from a Google advertisement, a cookie is recorded on the computer by Google AdWords for a duration of 30 days. The cookie serves to evaluate the total number of users of the Google advertisement. No personal data is collected or processed in this context.
Amendment of the data protection declaration
To ensure that our data protection declaration permanently corresponds to the current legal guidelines, we reserve the right to make changes to it at any time. In the event of significant changes to the collection, use and/or transmission of the personal data provided, we will publish a notice on our website in order to draw attention to these changes.
