Pro Natura Newsletter
Your e-mail address is considered a personal information for your identification. It is governed by the Swiss Federal Data Protection Act (DSG, SR 235.1). It is used exclusively by Pro Natura and is not passed on to third parties under any circumstances. For the transmission we use the newsletter service Mailchimp. Cancellation of the newsletter is possible at any time. Each newsletter contains a direct link that makes cancellation simple and automatic.

Secure data transmission
When you order a newsletter or contact requests will be transmitted to us in encrypted form via a secure connection. The security procedure used (SSL-Secure Sockets Layer) corresponds to the usual state of the art.
SSL encryption (recognized by https:// in the browser's address bar) is a protocol for encrypting data during transmission from the web server to the browser. This transmission offers particularly high security. During transmission, your personal data between your computer and our SSL server is encrypted using the SSL protocol.
All employees of Pro Natura working with your data are obliged to observe data protection. All employees get access to the system only through an authorization procedure.
Pro Natura Websites
When visiting the website of Pro Natura and Pro Natura Sections, the web server registers impersonal usage data that provide information about the routes used through the website, further sites/URLs, activities according to time of day and duration of the visit. This anonymous usage data is evaluated internally to adapt the Pro Natura website to the needs of its users. Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc.
