Data protection

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the Swiss Confederation’s data protection regulations (Data Protection Act, DPA), every person is entitled to protection of their privacy and protection from misuse of their personal data. This federal law is strongly influenced by European law, and companies located outside the European Union or the EEA are obliged under certain circumstances to comply with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Although this regulation is a legal text of the European Union, it is important for avl Interpreters. We comply with these regulations. Personal data is kept strictly confidential and is not sold or passed on to third parties.

In close cooperation with our hosting providers, we endeavor to protect the databases, as far as possible, from unauthorized access, loss, misuse or counterfeiting.

When accessing our web pages, the following data is stored in log files: IP address, date, time and information transmitted about the operating system and the browser. This usage data is the basis for statistical, anonymous evaluations, to identify trends, with which we can improve our offer.

Detailed personal data is recorded of our interpreters and partners who work for avl interpreters on a mandate basis or who are interested in working with us. This data is taken from the collaboration form. It is only used to make a suitable offer to our clients.
