Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: https://safespacecampus.ch.
This website is operated by the association Safe Space on Campus.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

The website may contain photos taken during our association’s events and workshops. These photos are used solely for documentation and communication purposes. If you appear in a published photo and wish it to be removed, you may contact us to request deletion.
If you upload images in comments, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website could download and extract location data from such images.

Contact forms

When you use our contact form, we collect the information you enter (such as name, email address, and message). This data is used exclusively to process your inquiry and will not be shared with third parties.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

We only use cookies that are technically necessary for the operation of the site. We do not use cookies for marketing or tracking purposes.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles).
Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited those websites directly.
These external sites may collect data, use cookies, or apply tracking. We have no influence over this and recommend checking the privacy policies of the respective providers.

Hosting and technical logs

This website is hosted on Hetzner. As part of providing hosting services, Hetzner and its infrastructure providers may automatically collect and store technical information (such as IP addresses, browser type, and time of access) in server logs. These logs are used for the secure and reliable operation of the website and are automatically deleted after a limited period.

Backups

We create regular backups of our website. These backups are stored on our hosting servers at Hetzner and are used solely for recovery purposes. Backups are automatically deleted after a limited period.

Caching and performance

To improve website performance and security, we use caching technology. Temporary copies of website content may be stored, which may include your IP address. These caches are automatically cleared on a regular basis.

Data retention

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

Contact form messages may be stored for the duration necessary to process your inquiry and for documentation purposes.

Your rights

Under the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection, you have the right to request information about the personal data we process about you.
You may also request correction or deletion of your data, provided no statutory obligations prevent us from doing so. For image removal requests or other privacy concerns, please contact us.

Data sharing

We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties. Comments may, however, be checked through an automated spam detection service.
