The hosting provider may record such information in server logs. If you contact the practice by e-mail, the message and associated contact details are processed.

3. Purposes and legal basis

Access data is used to provide and secure the website, identify errors and prevent abuse. E-mail messages are processed to review and respond to enquiries and, where appropriate, prepare for a potential mandate. Processing is governed by applicable Swiss data protection law and, where applicable, the GDPR (in particular Article 6(1)(b) and (f)).
