By using this Website, the User agrees to the data collected being processed and used as described above.
The User may object to the collection and storage of data at any time, with effect for the future.
No recommendation, performance
The Website has been prepared for information purposes only. It does not constitute an invitation to tender or an offer to buy or sell, nor does it constitute a personalised investment recommendation. Unless otherwise stated, the information contained in this Website is not financial analysis within the meaning of the Swiss Bankers Association's guidelines on the independence of financial analysis.
The risks associated with certain investments (in particular derivatives in any form whatsoever, investments in non-traditional funds or in emerging markets) are not suitable for all investors. It is the User's responsibility to consult the prospectuses and regulations (which can be obtained free of charge, in the case of investment funds authorised in Switzerland, from the fund management companies and/or their representatives), to contact their advisers for a specific examination of their risk profile, and to inform themselves of the risks inherent in any decision, in particular by consulting the Swiss Banking brochure on special risks in securities trading, before any transaction.
Structured or synthetic products and warrants are not collective investments within the meaning of the Federal Act on Collective Investment Schemes (CISA) and are, therefore, not subject to authorisation or supervision by the Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). Investors cannot, therefore, claim protection under the CISA.
Investors are exposed to issuer risk, and the value of their investments depends not only on the performance of the underlying asset(s) but also on the issuer's creditworthiness, which may change during the product term.
Past performance should not be considered a guarantee of current or future performance. For many reasons, an investment may appreciate or depreciate, and the investor may not get his money back. In addition, fluctuations in exchange rates may cause the value of investments to rise or fall.
Reliability of the information presented on the Website
Piguet Galland & Cie SA endeavours to carefully select the information it publishes on this Website; however, it cannot guarantee its accuracy, reliability or completeness.
In addition, Piguet Galland & Cie SA reserves the right to modify the content of this Website at any time and without prior notice.
Interest from third parties
Piguet Galland & Cie SA, Group companies and/or their directors, officers and employees may hold or have held interests or positions in certain securities, which they may acquire or sell at any time, or may have acted or traded as a market maker. They may have had and may continue to have, commercial relations with the issuers of certain securities, providing them with corporate finance, capital market or other financing services.
Warranty exclusions
Neither Piguet Galland & Cie SA, nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or shareholders, nor any third party information provider, nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or shareholders, shall be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever arising out of your access to, or use of, or inability to access or use, the information or opinions available on this Website. In particular, Piguet Galland & Cie SA, as well as its administrators, directors, employees, auxiliaries and shareholders, for any prejudice or loss suffered as a result of an error, technical or otherwise, a transfer failure, an overload situation, difficulty in use, a service interruption (including in particular the system maintenance service), a delay in the transmission of information, an incompatibility between this Website and the files and/or software of the User (in particular with their "browser") and/or computer, malfunction, interference, the transmission of a virus or worm to the User's computer, illegal intrusion (e.g. as a result of hacking), intentional blocking of telecommunications tools and networks (e.g. as a result of mass e-mailing or denial of service attacks) or any other inadequacy of telecommunications or network service providers is excluded.
Partial nullity
Suppose any of the provisions of these terms of use should be invalid, unenforceable or inapplicable as a result of any legal provision. In that case, this shall not render the other provisions of these terms of use invalid, unenforceable or inapplicable. The invalid, non-compliant or inapplicable clause will be replaced by another valid, compliant and applicable clause corresponding as closely as possible to the meaning and purpose of the invalidated clause.
Applicable law and place of jurisdiction
All legal relations between the Website User and Piguet Galland & Cie SA are subject to Swiss law. The place of performance, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all types of proceedings and the place of jurisdiction for legal action, but only with regard to the latter for Website Users not domiciled in Switzerland, is at the registered office of Piguet Galland & Cie SA in Yverdon-les-Bains.
