Cookies help in many ways to make your visit to our website simpler, more pleasant and more meaningful. Cookies are information files that your web browser automatically stores on your computer’s hard drive when you visit our website. Cookies neither damage your computer’s hard drive nor do they transfer the user’s personal data to us.
is transferred to servers at Google, a company of the holding company Alphabet Inc., in the US and stored there (see Section 10 Note about data transfer to the US). As IP anonymisation (“anonymizeIP”) is enabled on this website, the IP address is abridged within the Member States of the European Union or in other Contracting States to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and Switzerland before being transferred. Google does not combine the anon­ymised IP address transferred by your browser for Google Analytics with other data. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the US and abridged there. In these cases, we ensure by means of contractual guarantees that Google maintains sufficient data protection levels.
The information is used to analyse website usage, compile reports about activities on the web­site and to provide other services associated with use of the website and Internet for market research purposes and needs-based website design. This information may also be transferred to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties are commissioned to process this data. According to Google, the IP address will not be linked to other data concerning users under any circumstances.
Instead of downloading the browser plugin, users can click on this link to prevent Google Ana­lytics from collecting data on this website in future. An opt-out cookie will then be stored on the user’s device. If users delete cookies (see Section 5 Cookies), the link must be clicked again.
Google will use this information to evaluate the use of the website with regard to the advertise­ments to be placed, to compile reports on the website activities and advertisements for the website operators and to provide further services connected with the use of the website and the Internet. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. However, Google will under no circum­stances associate the IP address of users with other Google data.
The website uses the tracking technology of OpenX Technologies Inc. "("OpenX"), 888 East Walnut Street, 2nd Fl, 91101 Pasadena/CA, United States. This may include cookies (cookies number 5). OpenX collects and stores usage data in pseudonymous profiles for the purpose of web analysis and/or to enable interest-oriented advertising (note on data transmission to the USA, item 10).
You can object to this data processing at any time with future effect by setting an opt-out cookie on your terminal. Further information on this opt-out option and data processing by OpenX can be found in the OpenX data protection statement under the following link: openx.com/legal/privacy-policy/. You can also prevent cookies from being stored on your hard disk at any time (cookies, section 5).
The social plugins described below are used on our website. The plugins are disabled on our website as standard and therefore do not send any data. By clicking on the corresponding so­cial media button, you can enable the plugins (known as the Shariff solution).
If these plugins are enabled, your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers for the relevant social networks as soon as you call up one of our websites. The content of the plugins is transferred from the social network to your browser directly and integrated by your browser into the website. The plugins can of course be disabled again with just a click of the mouse.
Social plugins from Facebook are used on our website to make our online presence more per­sonal. We use the “LIKE” or “SHARE” buttons for this purpose. This is an offering from US com­pany Facebook Inc. (1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA).
By integrating the plugin, Facebook receives the information that your browser has called up the corresponding website, even if you do not own a Facebook account or are not logged in to Fa­cebook. This information (including your IP address) is transferred by your browser to one of Facebook’s servers in the United States and stored there. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook may assign the visit to our website to your Facebook account directly. If you interact with the plugins, for example the “LIKE” or “SHARE” button, the corresponding information is likewise transferred to one of Facebook’s servers directly and stored there. The information is published on Facebook and shown to your Facebook friends.
Facebook may use this information for the purposes of advertising, market research and needs-based design for Facebook pages. For this reason, usage, interests and relationship profiles are created by Facebook, e.g. in order to analyse your use of our website with respect to the adver­tisements placed on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activity on our web­site and to provide other services associated with your use of Facebook.
Plugins from the short messaging network Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Fran­cisco, CA 94107, USA are integrated into our website. The Twitter plugin (tweet button) is rec­ognisable by the Twitter logo on our website.
If you do not want Twitter to be able to identify your visit to our websites, please log out of your Twitter account.
Our website uses the “+1″ button from social network Google Plus, which is operated by Google. The button is recognisable by the “+1″ on a white or coloured background.
If you have enabled social plugins, your browser establishes a direct connection with Google's servers as soon as you visit any page of our website. The content of the “+1″ button is trans­ferred from Google to your browser directly and integrated by your browser into the website. We therefore do not have any influence on the scope of the data collected by Google through this button.
If you are a Google Plus member and do not want Google to link the data collected via our web­site to your member data stored with Google, you must log out of Google Plus before visiting our website.
If you click on the relevant symbols for the social networks, you will automatically be redirected to our profile on the corresponding network. To use the relevant network’s functions, you will sometimes have to log into your user account for that network.
If you click on a link to one of our social media profiles, a direct connection is established be­tween your browser and the server of the relevant social network. The network will therefore receive the information that you are visiting our website with your IP address and have opened the link. If you open a link to a network while you are logged in to your account for the relevant network, the content of our page may be linked to your profile on the network, meaning that the network can directly assign your visit to our website to your user account. If you wish to prevent this, you should log out before clicking on this kind of link. This assignment will happen anyway if you log in to the relevant network after clicking the link.
To send our newsletter, we use e-mail marketing services of third parties. Our newsletter may therefore contain a web beacon (tracking pixel) or similar technical tools. A web beacon is an invisible graphic image, 1x1 pixel in size, that is associated with the user ID for the relevant newsletter subscriber.
The use of these services allows us to analyse whether or not the e-mails containing our news­letter have been opened. In addition, the click behaviour of recipients of our newsletter can also be collected and analysed. We use this data for statistical purposes and in order to optimise the newsletter with regard to content and structure. This allows us to better align the information and offers in our newsletter to the individual interests of the recipient in question. The tracking pixel is deleted if you delete the newsletter.
If you wish to prevent tracking pixels from being included in our newsletter, please set your e-mail software such that HTML is not displayed in messages. On the following pages, you will find an explanation of how to adjust this setting in the most common e-mail software.
This data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 point f GDPR, and therefore our legitimate inter­est.
For the sake of completeness, we would like to point out to users residing or based in Switzer­land that in the US there are monitoring measures taken by the US authorities that generally allow the storage of all personal data relating to all persons whose data has been transferred from Switzerland to the US. This happens without differentiation, limitation or exception on the basis of the aim pursued and without an objective criteria that makes it possible to limit access to the data by US authorities and its later use to very specific, strictly limited purposes that may justify the intervention associated with both access to this data and use thereof. We would also like to point out that there are no judicial remedies in place in the US for affected persons from Switzerland that would make it possible to receive access to the data relating to them and to have this corrected or deleted, as well as no effective legal protection against general access rights by US authorities. We refer the persons affected explicitly to this legal and factual situa­tion so that they can make an appropriately informed decision on whether or not to consent to their data being used.
You have the right to receive information about the personal data that we store about you free of charge upon request. In addition, you have the right to correct inaccurate data and the right to delete your personal data, as far as there is no statutory storage obligation or another legal basis for the processing in the sense of art. 6 GDPR that allows us to continue processing the data.
You also have the right to reclaim from us the data you have given us (right to data portability). On request, we also pass the data on to a third party of your choice. You have the right to re­ceive the data in a common file format.

to carry out services that you requested or to which you have given your consent (for ex­ample, to newsletter pursuant to pSection 9)to the extent specified above.
Contract data is kept longer by us, as this is required by statutory storage requirements. Reten­tion requirements that oblige us to keep data arise from accounting and tax regulations. Ac­cording to these regulations, business communications, closed contracts and accounting docu­ments must be kept for up to 10 years. As far as we no longer need this data to carry out the services for you, the data will be blocked. This means that the data may then only be used for accounting and for tax purposes.
If you have any questions about data protection on our website, would like more information or want to ask for your data to be erased, please contact us by completing the relevant online con­tact form or sending an e-mail to dsb@luzern.com.
