Welcome to Swiss View Wire (https://swissviewwire.com). By accessing our website, subscribing to memberships or newsletters, purchasing items from our shop, or attending events (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to these Terms & Conditions (“Terms”). Please read them carefully.
We publish independent commentary, photo essays, explainers, and newsletters about life in Switzerland. We also offer optional paid memberships, clearly labeled sponsorships, limited-run prints and similar items, and occasional events or workshops. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Services at our discretion with notice where required.
Some features require an account. You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and for all activity under your account. Membership access is for personal use and must not be shared or resold. We may suspend or terminate access for material breaches of these Terms.
Prices are shown in CHF. Subscriptions renew automatically at the selected interval until cancelled. Payments are processed by third-party providers; separate terms may apply. Taxes or payment-processor fees may apply where required by law.
You can cancel a membership at any time via your account or by emailing us. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; we do not offer pro-rata refunds for partial periods. For physical items (e.g., prints), return windows and conditions are stated at checkout; statutory rights remain unaffected.
Content is provided for general information and convenience. It is not legal, financial, medical, or professional advice. Schedules and details can change; always check official sources before acting. Past coverage reflects information available at the time and may be updated.
Unless otherwise noted, site content (text, images, graphics, layout) is owned by Swiss View Wire or its licensors and protected by applicable laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the site for personal, non-commercial purposes. Reproduction, scraping, automated downloading, or redistribution without permission is prohibited.
If you submit comments, tips, photos, or other materials, you confirm you have the necessary rights and grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display, reproduce, and adapt them for the Services. We may moderate, edit, or remove submissions that are unlawful, infringe rights, or disrupt community guidelines.
You agree not to: (i) attempt to breach security or disrupt the site; (ii) use automated means to extract or index content without written permission; (iii) impersonate others or misrepresent affiliation; (iv) upload malicious code; (v) violate applicable laws.
We process personal data as described in our Privacy Policy and manage cookies as described in our Cookie Policy. By using the Services, you acknowledge those documents.
Our site may link to third-party websites or tools. We are not responsible for their content or practices. Your use of third-party services is at your own discretion and subject to their terms.
To the maximum extent permitted by Swiss law, Swiss View Wire is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses arising from your use of the Services. Our aggregate liability for any claim shall not exceed the total amount you paid to us for the Services in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim (for free users, CHF 0).
These Terms are governed by the laws of Switzerland. The ordinary courts of Zürich, Switzerland, have exclusive jurisdiction, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protection rules. We encourage contacting us first to seek an informal resolution.
We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date above will reflect changes. Continued use of the Services after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
