Privacy, legal notice and accessibility
Privacy policy
This statement explains what data this website collects, why, and what rights you have, in line with the revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (in force since 1 September 2023).
Controller and contact
This site is operated by the Kizazi Kijacho research program, Department of Economics, University of Zurich, Schönberggasse 1, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland. For any question about this policy or your data, contact kizazikijacho@econ.uzh.ch.
What is collected, and why
Standard access data (IP address, requested page, date and time, browser type) are logged automatically by our hosting provider, GitHub Inc., to keep the site secure and running. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics for aggregate visit counts — a cookie-free tool that does not collect personal data or track individuals across sites. If you email us, we process your message and address solely to reply to you.
Recipients and transfers abroad
Two providers based in the United States are involved in running this site: GitHub Inc. (hosting) and Google LLC / YouTube (the embedded field videos, which may set their own cookies — governed by Google's privacy policy, not ours). Such transfers are made subject to the safeguards required under Swiss data protection law.
Cookies and analytics
This site does not set its own cookies. Our analytics tool, Cloudflare Web Analytics, is cookie-free and does not track visitors individually, so no consent banner is required. See Cookie settings below for details.
Your rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data, or ask further questions, by writing to kizazikijacho@econ.uzh.ch. You may also contact the University's Legal Services and Data Protection department directly: Künstlergasse 15, CH-8001 Zurich — www.rud.uzh.ch/en.
Retention and version
Access logs and analytics data are retained according to GitHub's and Cloudflare's own data retention policies, not set by us directly. Contact emails are kept only as long as needed to respond, unless a longer period is legally required.
This page covers this website specifically. For the University of Zurich's central data protection statement, see uzh.ch/en/privacy.html.
Legal notice
Required under Art. 3 of the Unfair Competition Act: a clear statement of who operates this site and how to reach them.

Cookie settings
This site does not set cookies for analytics, advertising, or tracking. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookie-free and does not collect personal data or track you individually — so there's nothing here for you to opt in or out of. The only cookies you might encounter come from the embedded YouTube videos on the Overview and Media pages, which are set by Google, not by us; see our Privacy Policy above for details.
