Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2 April 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies this website uses, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences — in compliance with the Swiss DSG, the EU ePrivacy Directive, and the GDPR.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They enable the site to remember certain information about your visit and are widely used to make websites function correctly and efficiently.
In addition to traditional cookies, this site uses localStorage (browser storage) to store your cookie consent preference, and sessionStorage to remember your persona selection during a single browsing session.
2. Cookies We Use
| Name / Key | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
fb_cookie_consent | localStorage | Stores your cookie consent decision ("accepted" or "declined") | 1 year |
fb_persona | sessionStorage | Remembers your selected audience persona (CFO, CTO, Legal, Sustainability) for the current session | Session (deleted on tab close) |
| Express session cookie | HTTP Cookie (strictly necessary) | Server-side session management required for the application to function | Session |
3. Cookie Categories
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled. They do not store any personally identifiable information. The Express session cookie falls into this category.
No consent is required for strictly necessary cookies under the ePrivacy Directive and DSG.
Functional Cookies / Browser Storage
fb_persona (sessionStorage) stores your audience preference for the current session only. It is not transmitted to our servers and is deleted automatically when you close the browser tab. No consent is required as it does not track you.
fb_cookie_consent (localStorage) stores your consent decision so you are not asked again on every visit. This is set only after you make a choice in the cookie banner.
Analytics and Marketing Cookies
We currently do not use any analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies. No Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or similar tools are active on this website.
4. Your Consent
When you first visit this website, a cookie banner will ask for your consent. You may:
- Accept — allow functional browser storage as described above
- Decline — only strictly necessary cookies will be used
You can withdraw or change your consent at any time by clicking the button below:
5. Third-Party Cookies

6. Browser Controls

- View and delete existing cookies
- Block cookies from specific or all websites

Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of the website.
