principles
Principles
I process personal data in good faith, proportionately, and only for the purposes stated at the time of collection or evident from the circumstances. I do not pass personal data to third parties unless it is necessary to deliver the service, you have consented, or I am legally required to do so.
website-data
Data collected when you visit the website
When you open this website your browser automatically transmits technical data to the server (server log files): IP address, date and time, page requested, browser type and operating system. This data serves the secure and stable operation of the website and is not combined with other data sources.
The website is hosted by [TBD: enter hosting provider — e.g. Cloudflare Pages]. The host processes the technical data described above on my behalf.
cookies
Cookies and consent
This website uses cookies. Technically necessary cookies are required for operation and are set without consent. All other cookies — in particular for statistics and embedded content — are only set after you have agreed in the cookie banner. You can withdraw your consent at any time by reopening the cookie settings.
analytics
Statistics and audience measurement
[TBD: confirm whether Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager should continue on the new website. The previous website used GTM-KQVVKPP6 and Google Analytics.]
Where used, audience measurement serves only to improve the service. It is activated only after your consent.
booking
Appointment booking
A widget from the provider OneDoc is embedded for online appointment booking. If you make a booking, the data you enter (name, contact details, requested appointment) is processed directly by OneDoc. OneDoc's own privacy terms apply in addition.
embeds
Embedded content
Some pages embed content from third parties (e.g. YouTube videos, map extracts). This content is only loaded after you have agreed. When it loads, the provider concerned receives your IP address.
client-data
Client data
As part of treatment I collect and process health data — intake information, treatment history, contact details. This counts as particularly sensitive personal data and is handled accordingly:
- It is used solely for treatment, billing and legally required documentation.
- I am bound by professional confidentiality.
- Data is passed to health insurers only to the extent needed for billing, and only where you have initiated this.
- Treatment records are retained for the legally required period and deleted thereafter.
contact-data
Getting in touch
If you contact me by email, phone, WhatsApp or a contact form, your details are stored in order to handle your enquiry. I do not pass this data on without your consent.
If you contact me via WhatsApp, that provider's privacy terms apply in addition.
security
Data security
I take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. The website is delivered encrypted over HTTPS. Complete protection during transmission over the internet is not possible.
rights
Your rights
You have the right to information about the personal data I process, and to have it corrected or deleted. You may also object to processing and, in certain cases, request that your data be released to you.
To exercise these rights, contact info@ralfing.ch. I may request proof of identity in order to protect your rights.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
