Legal bases according to the GDPR
Below you will find an overview of the legal bases of the GDPR on the basis of which we process personal data. Please note that in addition to the provisions of the GDPR, national data protection regulations may apply in your or our country of residence or domicile.
- Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR) – The data subject has given their consent to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.
- Performance of a Contract and Precontractual Inquiries (Art. 6(1), first sentence, subparagraph (b) of the GDPR) — Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or for the implementation of precontractual measures taken at the data subject’s request.
- Legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c) GDPR) – Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.
- Protection of vital interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. d) GDPR) – Processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.
- Legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR) – Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.
- Processing of special categories of personal data relating to healthcare, employment and social security (Art. 9 (2) (h) GDPR)
- Consent to the processing of special categories of personal data (Art. 9 (2) (a) GDPR)
- Processing of special categories of personal data for the protection of vital interests (Art. 9 para. 2 lit. c) GDPR)
Legal basis according to the Swiss Data Protection Act
If you are located in Switzerland, we process your data in accordance with the Federal Act on Data Protection (the “Swiss DPA” for short). This also applies if our processing of your data otherwise concerns you in Switzerland and you are affected by such processing. Unlike the GDPR, for example, the Swiss Data Protection Act does not generally require that a legal basis for the processing of personal data be specified. We process personal data only if the processing is lawful, carried out in good faith, and proportionate (Art. 6, paras. 1 and 2 of the Swiss Data Protection Act). Furthermore, we collect personal data only for specific purposes that are identifiable to the data subject and process it only in a manner consistent with those purposes (Art. 6(3) of the Swiss Data Protection Act).
Reference to validity of GDPR and Swiss DPA
This data protection notice serves to provide information in accordance with both the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). For this reason, please note that the terms of the GDPR are used due to the broader geographical application and comprehensibility. In particular, instead of the terms “processing” of “personal data”, “overriding interest” and “sensitive personal data” used in the Swiss DPA, the terms “processing” of “personal data”, “legitimate interest” and “special categories of data” used in the GDPR are used. However, the legal meaning of the terms will continue to be determined in accordance with the Swiss DPA within the scope of application of the Swiss DPA.

As part of our activities, we may also process special categories of data, in particular information on patients’ health, possibly with reference to their sex life or sexual orientation, as well as data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs or trade union membership. Where necessary, we obtain the express consent of patients for this and otherwise process the special categories of data for the purposes of preventive healthcare or to protect the vital interests of patients.
If it is necessary for the performance of our contract, for the protection of vital interests or by law (e.g. to fulfill obligations under social law and reporting obligations), or if the patient’s consent has been obtained, we disclose or transfer the patient’s data to third parties or agents, such as authorities, medical institutions, laboratories, billing offices and in the area of IT, office or comparable services, in compliance with the requirements of professional law.
Retention period: Your data will be retained for as long as is necessary for the provision of our services and any follow-up support. The retention period is generally ten years, but may differ in special cases due to special regulations, e.g. the requirements of the Radiation Protection Act.

Legal basis for the processing of health data: The processing of health data is generally based on explicit consent in accordance with Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR. In certain cases, the processing may also be based on other legal grounds, such as:
- for the purposes of preventive health care or occupational medicine pursuant to Article 9(2)(h) of the GDPR
- if the processing is necessary for reasons of public interest in the area of public health pursuant to Article 9(2)(i) of the GDPR
- if the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims pursuant to Article 9(2)(f) of the GDPR
Special Protective Measures for Health Data: Given the particular sensitivity of health data, we have implemented additional technical and organizational measures:

Safety Measures
We implement technical and organizational measures appropriate to the circumstances and the purposes of the processing, as well as to the varying likelihoods and severity of threats to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in accordance with legal requirements and taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation, and the nature, scope, circumstances, and purposes of the processing, as well as the varying likelihoods and severity of threats to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
These measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data, as well as access to, input of, and disclosure of the data, ensuring its availability, and maintaining data segregation. Furthermore, we have established procedures that ensure the exercise of data subjects’ rights, the deletion of data, and responses to data breaches. Furthermore, we take the protection of personal data into account from the very beginning of the development and selection of hardware, software, and procedures, in accordance with the principle of data protection through technical design and privacy-friendly default settings.
TLS/SSL encryption (https): To protect user data transmitted via our online services, we use TLS/SSL encryption. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is the standard technology for securing internet connections by encrypting the data transmitted between a website or app and a browser (or between two servers). Transport Layer Security (TLS) is an updated and more secure version of SSL. Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is displayed in the URL when a website is secured by an SSL/TLS certificate.

International data transfers
Data processing in third countries
If we process data in a third country (i.e., outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)), or if processing occurs in connection with the use of third-party services or the disclosure or transfer of data to other individuals, agencies, or companies, this is done only in accordance with legal requirements.
If the level of data protection in the third country has been recognized by means of an adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR), this serves as the basis for the data transfer. Otherwise, data transfers only take place if the level of data protection is otherwise ensured, in particular through standard contractual clauses (Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c) GDPR), express consent or in the case of contractual or legally required transfers (Art. 49 para. 1 GDPR).
EU-US Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework
As part of the so-called “Data Privacy Framework” (DPF), the EU Commission has also recognized the level of data protection for certain companies from the USA as secure as part of the adequacy decision of 10.07.2023. The list of certified companies as well as further information on the DPF can be found on the website of the US Department of Commerce at https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/
Swiss Data Protection Act
In accordance with the Swiss Data Protection Act (DSG), we disclose personal data abroad only if adequate protection for the data subjects is ensured (Art. 16 of the Swiss DSG). If the Federal Council has not determined that adequate protection exists, we implement alternative security measures such as international treaties, specific safeguards, or data protection clauses in contracts.

- Commercial and business letters: 6 years
Deletion of data
The data we process is deleted in accordance with legal requirements as soon as the consent authorizing its processing is revoked or other legal grounds for processing no longer apply (e.g., if the purpose for which the data was processed no longer exists or if the data is no longer necessary for that purpose).
If the data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing is restricted to these purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax law reasons or whose storage is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person.
