Privacy policy
General notes
In this privacy statement, we explain how we collect and process personal data. This privacy statement primarily takes into account the revised Swiss Data Protection Act (revDSG) and in individual cases, especially in the case of web-based analytics tools and third-party tools, also the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR). Which of these laws are applicable depends on the individual case. . Specific circumstances are also regulated in other documents (e.g. General Terms and Conditions, Conditions of Participation).

We primarily process the personal data that we receive in the course of our activities, services and business relationships and other persons involved in them and that we collect in the operation of our website, apps and other applications.
In principle, we only collect data that is necessary for the respective processing purposes. We also do not sell any data to third parties. Personal data is all information that relates to a specific or identifiable person. A data subject is a person whose personal data is being processed. Processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular the storage, disclosure, procurement, deletion, storage, modification, destruction and use of personal data.
We process personal data for the duration required for the respective purpose or purposes. In the case of longer-term retention obligations due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict processing accordingly.
We use the personal data we collect for the following processing purposes:
- Donation generation and administration.
- Financial management (processing of incoming payments, disbursements, etc.).
- Course and Event Administration.
- Exchange projects and international cooperation projects
- Online store
- Offer and further develop our offers, services and websites, apps and other platforms on which we are present.
- Advertising and marketing, unless you have objected to the use of your data (if we send you information from us as an existing donor, you can object to this at any time - we will then put you on a blacklist against further deliveries).
- Market research and media review.
- Warranties of our operations, especially IT, our websites, apps, and other platforms.
If you have given us permission to process your personal data for specific purposes, we process your personal data within this framework and based on your consent, unless we require a different legal basis.
We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk, in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing, as well as the different probabilities of occurrence and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.
The measures include, in particular, safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical and electronic access to the data as well as the access, entry, disclosure, safeguarding of availability and its separation. Furthermore, we have established procedures to ensure the exercise of data subjects' rights, the deletion of data, and responses to data compromise. Furthermore, we take the protection of personal data into account as early as the development or selection of hardware, software and processes in accordance with the principle of data protection, through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings.
In the course of our processing of personal data, your data may be transferred to or disclosed to other entities, companies, legally independent organizational units or persons. The recipients of this data may include, for example, service providers entrusted with IT tasks, companies for the production of mailings or applications that improve our collection activities. In such cases, we observe the legal requirements and conclude appropriate contracts and agreements with the recipients of your data for your protection.
We do not transfer personal data to third parties in a country outside Switzerland and the EU that does not have adequate data protection.
However, we cannot rule out the possibility that web tools used by us to operate our website (such as Microsoft Clarity) transmit anonymized data to the USA or other countries. However, in the context of the use of foreign-based web tools, we check whether their operators undertake to comply with legal data protection.
We process your personal data partly automatically with the aim of evaluating certain personal interests. We use profiling exclusively to be able to inform and advise you about our projects in a targeted manner. In doing so, we use evaluation tools that enable us to provide needs-based communication and advertising.
We do not use fully automated decision making.
We process and store your personal data as long as it is necessary for the fulfillment of our contractual and legal obligations or other purposes pursued with the processing. We comply with the statutory retention and documentation obligations. As a rule, they amount to 10 years after completion of a service.
Donor data is stored in a separate database (CRM Sextant). You have the right to have your donor data deleted. In this case, we inactivate your data to ensure that your data is not re-entered into our donation database via other channels (e.g. address rental). If you explicitly request deletion, we cannot guarantee that it will be re-added to our donation database via external address companies.
We conduct audio and video conferences with our stakeholders and project partners. We also conduct digital webinars in our educational work. In doing so, we make sure that we use services that have appropriate data protection. The study leaders of the webinars are experienced users of the respective software. However, participation in these digital events is at your own risk. Mission 21 rejects any liability in this context (e.g. data protection violations). If the webinars are recorded and made available on our website, participants will be asked for their active consent.
Furthermore, we refer to the privacy statements of the respective providers. We mainly use MS Teams and ZOOM.
When you donate money to us or pay for a chargeable service, your payment data is collected. The data of your credit cards run exclusively through our payment partners, so that they can not be stored by us.
Data collection on the Mission 21 website
We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. Your personal data is processed confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases as well as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or falsification.
We point out that data transmission over the Internet (eg communication by e-mail) security gaps. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.
By using this website, you consent to the collection, processing and use of data in accordance with this privacy policy. In the process, data such as pages accessed or names of the accessed file, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes without this data being directly related to your person. Personal data, in particular name, address or e-mail address, are collected on a voluntary basis, for example when you provide them in contact forms, online purchases or registration forms.
This website uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
When you donate money to us online or pay for a paid service, your payment data is collected. The data for payment processing or your credit card information run exclusively through our payment partners, so they can not be stored by us. Your personal information is transmitted to Mission 21 in encrypted form by our service provider. Our service provider is the company RaiseNow AG, located at Hardturmstrasse 101, 8005 in Zurich.
In addition, we work together with the most common credit card and payment providers. The company SIX, located at Pfingstweidstrasse 110, 8005 Zurich, guarantees secure payment processing. It operates the infrastructure for the Swiss financial center. The respective valid data protection statements can be found on the website of the respective provider.
If you order something in our online store, we process the necessary data given by you to enable you to order the selected products. This includes master data (inventory data), communication data, payment data. We transmit personal data to third parties only if this is necessary in the context of the contract (eg delivery of the goods or customer requests for delivery, payment processing, etc.).
The data subjects of the processing include our customers, prospective customers and other business partners. The processing is carried out for the purpose of providing contractual services in the context of the operation of an online store, billing, delivery and customer service.
You can optionally create a user account to view your orders. As part of the registration process, the required mandatory information will be provided to users. The user accounts are not public and cannot be indexed by search engines, e.g. Google.
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your data from the inquiry form including the contact data you provided there will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent. The same applies to information provided on the registration form. Here, we only pass on your data if it is necessary for the purpose (e.g. name for booking an overnight stay at Hotel Odelya).
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on this website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the specified e-mail address and agree to receive the newsletter. Further data will not be collected. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the "unsubscribe link" in the newsletter.
Our provider for the online newsletter is the company getunik ag at Hardturmstrasse 101 in 8005 Zurich. Getunik ag is obliged to ensure that any subcontractors also comply with the legal requirements of data protection.
Mission 21 issues various publications, such as "encounter" a magazine that informs you about the various activities and partners of Mission 21. Of course, you can unsubscribe from Mission 21's publications at any time by sending us an email or calling us immediately.
We use cookies to make our offer more user-friendly, effective and secure. We use session cookies, e.g. for storing the shopping cart content, which are automatically deleted after the end of your visit. Other, so-called permanent cookies, e.g. for storing the login status, are stored on your terminal device. This enables us to recognize your browser on your next visit.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and you can also exclude them.
For more information, see the next chapter.
Google Maps
This website uses the offer of Google Maps. This allows us to display interactive maps directly on the website and enables you to comfortably use the map function. By visiting the website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether there is no user account. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not want the assignment with your profile at Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google to exercise this right. For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by Google, as well as further information on your rights in this regard and settings options for protecting your privacy, please visit:Â www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
Google Ads
This website uses Google conversion tracking. If you have reached our website via an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set on your computer by Google Ads. The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked across Ads customers' websites. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Ads customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Clients learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that personally identifies users.
If you do not wish to participate in the tracking, you can refuse the setting of a cookie required for this - for example, by means of a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies or by setting your browser in such a way that cookies from the domain "googleleadservices.com" are blocked.
Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want any measurement data to be recorded. If you have deleted all your cookies in the browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.
Google Remarketing
This website uses the remarketing function of Google Inc. The function is used to present interest-based advertisements to website visitors within the Google advertising network. A so-called "cookie" is stored in the browser of the website visitor, which makes it possible to recognize the visitor when they visit websites that belong to the Google advertising network. On these sites, the visitor may be presented with advertisements that relate to content that the visitor has previously accessed on websites that use Google's remarketing function.
According to its own information, Google does not collect any personal data during this process. However, if you do not wish to use the Google remarketing function, you can deactivate it by changing the corresponding settings under http://www.google.com/settings/ads make. Alternatively, you can deactivate the use of cookies for interest-based advertising via the advertising network initiative by following the instructions under http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp follow
Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the data controller of this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, the Google Analytics data processing is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereinafter referred to as "Google". Google Ireland (based in Ireland) relies on Google LLC (based in the USA) as an order processor, with which we can measure and apply the use of the website (non-personal). We have configured the service so that the IP addresses of visitors in Europe are shortened before being forwarded to the USA and thus cannot be traced. We have turned off the "data sharing" and "signals" settings. Although we can assume that the information we share with Google is not personal data for Google, it is possible that Google can draw conclusions about the identity of visitors from this data for its own purposes, create personal profiles and link this data to the Google accounts of these individuals. Insofar as you have registered with the service provider yourself, the service provider also knows you. The processing of your personal data by the service provider then takes place under the responsibility of the service provider in accordance with its data protection provisions. The service provider only informs us how our respective website is used (no information about you personally).
The statistics obtained enable us to improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor flows, which is carried out via a user ID. If you have a Google user account, you can deactivate the cross-device analysis of your usage in the settings there under "My data", "Personal data".
The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended by the code "_anonymizeIp();" to ensure anonymized collection of IP addresses. This means that IP addresses are processed in abbreviated form, which means that they cannot be linked to a specific person. Insofar as the data collected about you is related to a person, this is therefore immediately excluded and the personal data is thus immediately deleted.
Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.
Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available under the following link:
Furthermore, you can also prevent the use of Google Analytics by clicking on this link: Deactivate Google Analytics. This saves a so-called opt-out cookie on your data carrier, which prevents the processing of personal data by Google Analytics. Please note that if you delete all cookies on your end device, these opt-out cookies will also be deleted, i.e. you will have to set the opt-out cookies again if you want to continue to prevent this form of data collection. The opt-out cookies are set per browser and computer/end device and must therefore be activated separately for each browser, computer or other end device.
Google Web Fonts
This website uses so-called web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font is used by your computer.
For more information about Google Web Fonts, see https://developers.google.com/fonts/faqand in Google's privacy policy:https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
Google Tag Manager
Google Tag Manager is a solution with which we can manage so-called website tags via an interface and thus, for example, integrate Google Analytics and other Google marketing services into our online offering. The Tag Manager itself, which implements the tags, does not process any personal data of the users. With regard to the processing of users' personal data, please refer to the following information on Google services. Usage guidelines: https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html
Adobe Fonts
We use Adobe Fonts for the visual design of our website. Adobe Fonts is a service provided by Adobe Systems Incorporated, 345 Park Avenue, San Jose, CA 95110-2704, USA (Adobe), which gives us access to a font library. In order to integrate the fonts we use, your browser must establish a connection to an Adobe server in the USA and download the font required for our website. Adobe thereby receives the information that our website was accessed from your IP address. For more information about Adobe Fonts, please see Adobe's privacy policy, which you can access here: Adobe Fonts.
