I. Scope of this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to (see Section A) the website terraquantum.swiss as well as (see Section B) the TQ42 Studio platform (hereinafter: "TQ42 Studio") and all of our individual products within, which are accessible via TQ42 Studio (e.g. Qode Engine, QAI Hub, TQ Chem, and TQml SDK).
This Privacy Policy does not apply to other websites that Terraquantum.swiss merely references via hyperlink. We cannot assume responsibility for the confidential handling of your personal data on these third-party websites since we do not have any influence on their data protection compliance. Please inform yourself about the handling of personal data by these companies directly on their websites.
This Privacy Policy furthermore does not apply to personal data we process as a processor on behalf of third parties. This may especially be the case with hosting personal data for third parties who run an organization on TQ42 Studio and related processing (e.g., invitations to join that organization). If you are an end user of one of those organizations, such as an employee or student, you should read that organization’s privacy policy and direct any privacy inquiries to the third party who runs that organization on TQ42 Studio.
This Privacy Policy applies to data processing subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as indicated.

Google Analytics
a) Type and scope of data processing
On our website, we use the tracking tool Google Analytics of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Tel: +353 1 543 1000, Fax: +353 1 686 5660 („Google“).
We have contracted a so-called data processing agreement (DPA) with Google.
We have concluded a so-called order processing agreement insofar as Google acts as a processor for us. The data sharing settings with Google have been deactivated, so that consequently there is no joint controllership with Google. Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site.
The information generated by cookies about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of systematically 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 AI (artificial intelligence) and machine learning by applying algorithms to evaluate user behaviour. The algorithms automatically measure the usage behaviour of the individual website user based on event data.
The algorithm that analyses these events can also recognise specific usage behaviour on other devices, which enables cross-device behavioural analysis of website users. If you have different separate sessions on different devices, Google Analytics can automatically aggregate the sessions into a single cross-device user experience based on User ID, Google ID, or Device ID and create database models, including cross-device conversions.
We do not receive any personal data from Google, just statistics. If you would like to stop the cross-device analysis, you can deactivate the "personalised advertising" function in the settings of your Google account. To do so, follow the instructions on this Google support page:
If individual pages of our website are called up, the following data is stored:
- three bytes of the IP address of the calling system of the user (anonymized IP address)
- accessed website
- website from which the user accessed the page of our website (referrer)
- sub-pages that are called from the caller page
- time spent on the website
- frequency of calls to the website
- scroll behavior and clicks
- achievement of "website objectives" (e.g., newsletter registrations)
- approximate location
- information about the used browser, internet provider, and device information
Google informs that the IP addresses in Google Analytics no longer need to be anonymised, as they are neither logged nor stored. Nevertheless, the IP address in Google Analytics is automatically shortened by the service (IP anonymisation). This means that the IP addresses are shortened by the last octet (e.g., 192.168.79.***; so-called IP masking). It is no longer possible to assign the shortened IP address to the calling computer or end device of the user.

10. Services with statistical cookies (Statistics)
Google Analytics
a) Type and scope of data processing
On the TQ42 Studio, we use the tracking tool Google Analytics of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Tel: +353 1 543 1000, Fax: +353 1 686 5660 ("Google“).
We have contracted a so-called data processing agreement (DPA) with Google.
We have concluded a so-called data processing agreement (DPA) with Google insofar as Google acts as a processor for us. The data sharing settings with Google have been deactivated, so consequently there is no joint controllership with Google. Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the TQ42 Studio analyze how users use the site.
The information generated by cookies about your use of the TQ42 Studio is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. On behalf of the operator of the TQ42 Studio, Google will use this information to systematically evaluate your use of the TQ42 Studio, compile reports on the TQ42 Studio activity, and provide other services relating to the TQ42 Studio activity and internet usage to us. Google Analytics uses AI (artificial intelligence) and machine learning by applying algorithms to evaluate user behavior. The algorithms automatically measure the usage behavior of the individual user based on event data.
The algorithm that analyses these events can also recognize specific usage behavior on other devices, which enables cross-device behavioral analysis of users. If you have different separate sessions on different devices, Google Analytics can automatically aggregate the sessions into a single cross-device user experience based on User ID, Google ID, or Device ID and create database models, including cross-device conversions.
We do not receive any personal data from Google, just statistics. If you would like to stop the cross-device analysis, you can deactivate the "personalized advertising" function in the settings of your Google account. To do so, follow the instructions on this page:
If individual pages of the TQ42 Studio are called up, the following data is stored:
- three bytes of the IP address of the calling system of the user (anonymized IP address)
- accessed sub-page
- website from which the user accessed the page of the TQ42 Studio (referrer)
- sub-pages that are called from the caller page
- time spent on the website
- frequency of a call to the TQ42 Studio
- scroll behavior and clicks
- achievement of "objectives" (e.g., newsletter registrations)
- approximate location
- information about the used browser, internet provider, and device information
Google informs that the IP addresses in Google Analytics no longer need to be anonymized, as they are neither logged nor stored. Nevertheless, the IP address in Google Analytics is automatically shortened by the service (IP anonymization). This means that the IP addresses are shortened by the last octet (e.g.: 192.168.79.***; so-called IP masking). It is no longer possible to assign the shortened IP address to the calling computer or end device of the user.

Google Tag Manager only implements tags. Tags are small elements of code on websites that, among other things, serve to measure traffic and visitor behavior, identify the impacts of online advertisement and social channels, use remarketing and targeting, and test and optimize websites. This means:No additional cookies are used. Google Tag Manager triggers other tags, which may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level - in particular, if you have opted for the Google Analytics opt-out solution described above or have made the corresponding settings in your browser - it will remain in effect for all tracking tags provided that these are implemented with the Google Tag Manager.
