Some of the pages on this website use cookies and store and/or transfer personal data, which are specified in detail in this Data Privacy Statement below. When using cookies and storing and/or transferring personal data, the Swiss Lunch-Check Cooperative takes appropriate and suitable organisational and technical measures to guarantee data protection and data security.

Cookies and web beacons
Some of the pages on this website use cookies and web beacons, including those obtained from third-party providers. Cookies are text files that are stored on the user’s computer and used to make the Swiss Lunch-Check Cooperative website more effective, secure and user-friendly. Cookies are also used for advertising purposes in the form of re-marketing.

Web beacons are invisible graphics that are integrated into a website in order to analyse information such as clicks on the website or website traffic.

Visitors can adjust their browser settings so that they are informed about the generation of cookies and can either only allow cookies in individual cases or for specific occurrences, generally deactivate cookies or decide that cookies should be automatically deleted when they close their browser. Deactivating cookies may mean that users are unable to use certain individual functions of this website.

Use of the Permaleads analytics tool
The Swiss Lunch-Check Cooperative website uses an appropriate web analytics tool to analyse user behaviour and to identify IP addresses for marketing purposes. Use of this service requires data concerning user behaviour (e.g. IP address, the time at which users access the website, user behaviour, browser requests, etc.) to be directly transferred to the analysis server and made available solely for the purpose of use by the Swiss Lunch-Check Cooperative. The data collected are treated as strictly confidential and are neither sold nor passed on to any third parties. If you do not want to be identified in the future, please send an e-mail to optout@please-optout.com.

Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google (Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, which uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on users’ computers in order to enable an analysis of their use of the website. The information on their use of this website generated by the cookie is normally transmitted to and stored at a Google server in the USA. Google may pass this information on to third parties in the case that it is obliged to do so by law or if Google commissions third parties to process these data. When processing this information, Google does not combine IP addresses with other user data stored.

The anonymisation of IP addresses is activated on the Swiss-Check Cooperative website, meaning that Google truncates users’ IP addresses before transferring them to the USA. Users’ full IP addresses will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA before being truncated on this server in exceptional cases. On behalf of the Swiss Lunch-Check Cooperative, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating use of the website, compiling reports on website activities and providing further services relating to use of the website and the Internet to the Swiss Lunch-Check Cooperative.

The IP address transmitted from the users’ browsers within the scope of Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data. Visitors can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in their browser software but this may mean that they are unable to use all of the functions of the website. The deletion of permanent cookies after visiting the website has no detrimental effect.

Visitors can prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie with regard to their use of the website (including their IP address) for Google and the processing of these data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
