What happens when I write an email
Email operator and data storage location: cyon GmbH, Brunngässlein 12, 4052 Basel, Switzerland
In the event of contact via email, Your message has been forwarded to our mail hosting provider. Mail hosting is a type of hosting service specifically focused on providing email functionality. It allows individuals, businesses, and organizations to create and manage email accounts associated with their domain name (e.g., info@www.s-bc.memoserver.ch). Mail hosting providers typically offer email services with features such as spam filtering, virus protection, webmail access, and the ability to use email clients like Outlook or Thunderbird. This type of hosting is part of a larger hosting package, such as web hosting or domain hosting, or is offered as a standalone service. It is a convenient solution for those who need a professional email service with their own domain name. Message retention is handled individually. Normally, we archive your messages to track past inquiries, such as follow-up questions about completed orders, reorders, complaints, or similar matters. Furthermore, there are regulations governing the operation of email hosting services that specify which data must be collected and stored for security reasons. These regulations are governed by the data processing agreement with the service provider. Further details can be found on the website of the email hosting provider:

How we handle personal data
Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e., information that can be traced back to an individual. This includes name, email address, and telephone number. Data about preferences, hobbies, memberships, or which websites someone has visited also counts as personal data. Personal data is only collected, used, and shared by the provider if this is legally permitted or if users consent to the data collection. How we protect your personal data: We have implemented technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss, destruction, manipulation, and unauthorized access. Our security measures are continuously reviewed and optimized in line with technological developments. When you use a service on our website, your personal data is transmitted to us. To prevent this data from falling into the wrong hands, we encrypt it using the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol. The SSL protocol is currently the most common and secure data transmission method on the internet. How the SSL protocol works: The SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol protects data that a customer sends to a company's server over the internet. SSL provides triple protection: Your data is encrypted before being submitted. It is ensured that the form is only sent back to the server from which it was received.
