YOUTUBE WITH EXTENDED DATA PROTECTION

This website uses plugins of the website YouTube. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode causes YouTube not to store information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. The transfer of data to YouTube partners, on the other hand, is not necessarily excluded by the extended data protection mode. Thus, YouTube – regardless of whether you watch a video – connects to the Google DoubleClick network.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. This tells the YouTube server which of our websites you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, YouTube may store various cookies on your device after starting a video. Cookies allow YouTube to obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience, and prevent fraud attempts. The cookies remain on your device until you delete them.

If necessary, further data processing operations may be triggered after the start of a YouTube video, over which we have no control.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online content. This constitutes a legitimate interest under Art. 6 DSG or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

For more information about YouTube’s privacy practices, please see their privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

GOOGLE WEB FONTS

This site 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.

For this purpose, the browser you use must connect to Google’s servers. This gives Google knowledge that this website was accessed via your IP address. Google Web Fonts are used in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online content. This constitutes a legitimate interest under Art. 6 DSG or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

If your browser does not support web fonts, your computer uses a default font.

For more information on Google Web Fonts, please visit https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and see Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.

Important information on net asset value (NAV)

In certain parts of this website, the current net asset value (NAV) of the Company’s investments is calculated. In this context, we draw your attention to the following important note:

The Company has taken the greatest possible care in calculating the current indicative share price NAV. Nevertheless, the indicative share price NAV may differ from the actual price. This may occur due to varied factors, among others: Accounting accruals may be based on assumptions in certain cases (e.g., accrued costs); price data of certain assets (e.g., those without a secondary market or illiquid assets) may not be updated on a daily basis; and it cannot be ruled out that, due to technical errors, temporarily incorrect, incomplete or no price data can be fed into the calculation system. The Company assumes no liability for the accuracy and timeliness of the indicative share priceNAV.

Final provisions

SEVERABILITY CLAUSE

If any provision of the Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any court or competent authority under any applicable law, such provision shall be deemed severable from the Disclaimer. However, this shall not limit the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy under the laws of the relevant country or any other country.

JURISDICTION AND APPLICABLE LAW

Any disputes arising in connection with the use of the Company’s website shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts having jurisdiction over the registered office of the Company. Swiss law is to be applied.
