8. External Fonts
This website may use external fonts, including Google Fonts.
If fonts are loaded directly from the servers of an external provider, the browser establishes a connection to those servers when the website is accessed. In this process, the IP address and technical information relating to the device or browser used may be transmitted.
Where technically possible, fonts are stored locally on the website’s hosting server. This prevents a direct connection to an external provider when the fonts are loaded.

This website may contain links to VE Consulting profiles on the following social networks:
In the case of a standard link, a connection to the respective platform is generally only established when the link is clicked.
If posts, videos, feeds or other content are embedded directly into the website, a connection to the respective provider may already be established when the relevant page is loaded. In this process, the IP address, browser information, device data and information concerning the website visit may be transmitted.
If the visitor is logged into the relevant platform, the provider may be able to associate the visit with the corresponding user account.
The respective provider’s privacy policy applies to any further processing of data by the social network.

Certain service providers may process personal data outside Switzerland.
If a recipient is located in a country that, from a Swiss perspective, does not provide an adequate level of data protection, the protection of personal data will be ensured through appropriate safeguards. These may include recognised standard data protection clauses.

Once the required retention period has expired, the data will be deleted or anonymised unless there are legal or factual reasons for its continued retention.
