10. PRIVACY POLICY ON THE USE AND APPLICATION OF GOOGLE ANALYTICS (WITH ANONYMIZATION FUNCTION)

 

The Bank has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on its website. Google Analytics is a web analysis service that collects, compiles, and evaluates data about the behavior of visitors to our website, which subpages of the website were accessed or how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. A web analysis is mainly used for the optimization of the website and for the cost-benefit analysis of internet advertising.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the flow of visitors to our website. Google uses the data and information obtained to evaluate the activity in our website, to compile online reports, and to provide additional services related to the use of our website.

Google Analytics sets a cookie on the information technology system of the Data Subject. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. By each call of one of the individual pages of this website, the internet browser of the data subject is automatically activated to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google obtains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the data subject, which Google uses, to track the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission calculations.

By means of the cookie, personal information, for example the access time, the location from which an access originated and the frequency of visits to our website by the data subject, is stored. Each time the data subject visits our website, his/her personal data, including the IP address is transmitted to Google in the United States of America where it is also stored. Google may pass on the personal data collected via the technical procedure to third parties.

You can prevent the setting of cookies in our website, by means of an appropriate setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

Furthermore, you have the possibility to object to the collection of data generated by Google Analytics and to prevent the processing of your Personal Data. For this purpose, you must download and install a browser add-on under the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout . This browser add-on tells Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data and information about visits to Internet pages may be transmitted to Google Analytics. The installation of the browser add-on is considered by Google as an objection. If the information technology system of the data subject is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later point in time, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. Provided that the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another person attributable to his or her sphere of control, there is the option of reinstalling or reactivating the browser add-on.

Further information and the applicable Google privacy policy can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail under this link https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.

 

11. DURATION FOR WHICH THE PERSONAL DATA ARE STORED


 

The criterion for the duration of the storage of your Personal Data is stated in the respective statutory retention period. After expiry of the period, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, provided that no other legal requirements rule otherwise.

 

12. COMPETENT DATA PROTECTION AUTHORITY IN SWITZERLAND
