This Privacy Policy informs you about the type, scope, and purpose of the collection and use of personal data on our website top-wettbewerb.ch.
For individual or additional offers and services, special, supplementary, or other privacy policies, as well as other legal documents such as Terms and Conditions (T&C), Terms of Use, or Participation Terms, may apply.
The controller responsible for data processing on this website and contact person for data protection inquiries is:

Personal data refers to all information related to an identified or identifiable individual. A data subject is an individual about whom personal data is processed. Processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the methods and procedures used, particularly the storage, disclosure, acquisition, collection, deletion, storage, alteration, destruction, and use of personal data.
We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law, especially the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and the Data Protection Ordinance (DPO).
We process personal data necessary to provide our online services in a permanent, user-friendly, secure, and reliable manner. Such personal data may fall into categories such as basic and contact data, content data, usage data, metadata, contract data, and payment data.
We process personal data for as long as is necessary for the respective purpose(s) or as required by law. Personal data no longer needed for processing will be anonymized or deleted.
We generally process personal data only with the consent of the data subject, unless processing is permitted for other legal reasons, such as fulfilling a contract with the data subject or for corresponding pre-contractual measures, to safeguard our overriding legitimate interests, where processing is apparent from the circumstances or after prior notification.
Within this scope, we process in particular information voluntarily and self-submitted by a data subject when contacting us -- for example, by postal mail, email, contact form, social media, or phone -- or when registering for a user account. We may store such information in an address book, a Customer Relationship Management system (CRM system), or comparable tools. If you provide us with personal data about third parties, you are obligated to ensure data protection for such third parties and to guarantee the accuracy of such personal data.
We also process personal data received from third parties, obtained from publicly accessible sources, or collected during the provision of our online services, provided and to the extent such processing is legally permissible.
We take appropriate and adequate technical and organizational measures to ensure data protection and particularly data security. However, processing personal data on the internet may always involve security vulnerabilities despite such measures. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute data security.
Access to our online services is provided using transport encryption (SSL / TLS with HTTPS).
We may allow third parties, especially processors, to process personal data, or process personal data jointly with or with the assistance of third parties, or transmit personal data to third parties. Such third parties include, in particular, providers whose services we utilize. We also ensure adequate data protection with such third parties.
Such third parties are generally located in Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA), including the European Union (EU), but may also be located in third countries, provided that their data protection law ensures adequate data protection as assessed by the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or if adequate data protection is guaranteed for other reasons, such as a corresponding contractual agreement, particularly based on standard contractual clauses, or through corresponding certification. In the United States of America (USA), certification under the Data Privacy Framework may ensure adequate data protection. Exceptionally, a third party may be located in a country without adequate data protection, provided the legal data protection requirements, such as explicit consent from the data subject, are met.
Here you will learn how we collect and use information to offer you a better user experience. The collected data helps us better understand your needs and interests and adjust our content accordingly. Additionally, we place great importance on protecting your privacy and transparently inform you about our methods. Read on to learn more about our data collection approaches and their benefits to you.
We use various third-party services on our website. Below we explain in detail which services these are, why we use them, and what data is collected.
We may collect the following information for each access to our website, if transmitted by your browser to our server infrastructure or determined by our web server: date and time, including time zone, Internet Protocol (IP) address, access status (HTTP status code), operating system, including user interface and version, browser, including language and version, accessed individual page, transmitted data volume, and last accessed website (referrer or referring website).
Our website is hosted by Digital Ocean (101 6th Ave New York, NY 10013). We use web tools hosted by the Swiss service nine (Badenerstrasse 47, 8004 Zurich) to collect and store data. These data are collected and stored to optimize processes and workflows, especially in connection with the use of our website and the system's security and stability.
We store such information, which may also constitute personal data, in log files. This information is required to provide our online services in a permanent, user-friendly, and reliable manner and to ensure data security and, in particular, the protection of personal data -- also through third parties or with the help of third parties.
When you fill out and submit our sweepstakes form, your information from the form will be processed by us in accordance with our participation terms and this Privacy Policy. We ask for the following personal information:
You must generally expressly consent to the use of your email address and other contact details unless use is permissible for other legal reasons. We use “Single Opt-in” for any required consent for emails. We may log such consents, including the Internet Protocol (IP) address, as well as the date and time for proof and security purposes. By checking the box before submitting the form, you consent to the processing of your personal data as described below.
You may generally unsubscribe from notifications and communications, such as newsletters, at any time. Required notifications and communications essential to our online service are exempted. By unsubscribing, you may object to the statistical measurement of usage, including success and reach measurement.
Your data is used in connection with the sweepstake and with any potential newsletter distribution. Participants may object to such contact at any time. Participation in the sweepstake is also possible without such contact. Participants who do not wish for such contact from the outset may alternatively participate by emailing support@2media.ch with the same chances of winning. The email must specify the desired prize.
Notifications and communications may contain web links or tracking pixels that record if an individual communication has been opened and which web links have been clicked (success measurement). Such web links and tracking pixels may also record the use of notifications and communications. We need this statistical usage recording, including success and reach measurement, to provide notifications and communications effectively and user-friendly and in a secure, reliable, and lasting manner, based on the recipients' needs and reading habits.
Your data will also be used to enable contact by the organizer or third parties for consultation and brokerage related to financial and insurance products. Participants may object to such contact at any time.
Third parties to whom we transmit your personal data are:
We use cookies and similar technologies (e.g., tracking pixels/web beacons) on our website. Cookies are small files stored on your device and saved by your browser.

Temporary cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Permanent cookies allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit to our website and thus measure our website’s reach, among other things. However, permanent cookies can also be used for online marketing purposes.

It is a service provided by the American Google LLC, and for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland, the Irish Google Ireland Limited is responsible.
Google also attempts to capture individual visitors to our website when they use different browsers or devices (Cross-Device Tracking). Cookies are also used in this process. Google Analytics requires your Internet Protocol (IP) address, but it is not combined with other data from Google.
Further details about the nature, scope, and purpose of data processing can be found in Google's Privacy and Security Principles and Privacy Policy, the Guide to Privacy in Google Products (including Google Analytics), Information on How Google Uses Data from Sites that Use Google Services, and Information on Cookies at Google.

We may use third-party services to provide our online offering permanently, user-friendly, securely, and reliably. Such services also serve to embed content in our online offering. Such services—such as hosting and storage services, video services, and payment services—require your Internet Protocol (IP) address because they would otherwise not be able to transmit the corresponding content. These services may be located outside Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA), including the European Union (EU), provided that adequate data protection is ensured.
For their own security-related, statistical, and technical purposes, third-party services may also process data related to our online offering, as well as from other sources, in an aggregated, anonymized, or pseudonymized manner—using cookies, log files, and tracking pixels, among others. Such data will not be used to directly reach affected individuals in connection with our online offering.
Your personal data will only be stored as long as necessary for the respective purpose. After that, it will be routinely deleted, unless there is a legal obligation to retain it (e.g., for contract fulfillment or contract initiation).
On our website, you will find links to third-party sites. We are not responsible for the content and data protection measures on external websites that you can access through these links. Please refer to the privacy policy directly on the respective websites.
We are present on social media platforms and other online platforms to communicate with interested individuals and inform them about our online offering. The general terms and conditions (T&Cs), privacy policies, and other provisions of the individual operators of such online platforms also apply.
When we process your personal data, you have rights under Swiss data protection law, which we will explain to you below.
You have the right to request information about the stored data related to you, its origin, and the purpose of data processing free of charge. You also have the right to rectification, deletion, restriction of processing, or to object to the processing under the legal conditions.
Any consent you have given can be revoked at any time with effect for the future. A simple informal notification via email to us is sufficient.
Please note that the above rights are subject to legal restrictions and may, in some cases, impair or make it impossible to provide our services.
You are entitled to enforce your claims in court or file a complaint with the relevant data protection authority. In Switzerland, the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner is responsible.
We may adjust and supplement this privacy policy at any time. We will inform you of such adjustments and additions by publishing the current privacy policy on our website.
