Purpose of the cookie policy
The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of platforms for users. Some functions of our platform cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For these, the browser must also be recognized after a page change. The user data collected by technically necessary cookies are not used to create user profiles.
Web analysis
The user analysis tool “Matomo” is used for the anonymized evaluation of impersonal usage data (connection data), which serves to identify trends and improve our online offering. This means that this data is only processed by Swisscontact and not by the open source service Matomo.
Collection and processing of content data

You can recognize a secured connection if the browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and exhibits a lock symbol. If the SSL or TLS protocol is activated, then the data you are sharing with us will not be read by third parties.
