    Open Access

    Open Access: What is it? Open Access articles under this keyword are freely accessible and can be read by anyone from 2024 onwards without being restricted by tobacco laws. The keywords (tags) can be found in the footnote to each article. Pay attention on the keyword OPEN ACCESS. Under this keyword you will find all publicly accessible articles that do not violate the Swiss ban on tobacco advertising. 

    What's it all about?

    The tobacco advertising ban in Switzerland will undoubtedly have an impact on the cigar industry, cigar retailers and cigar publications from 2024 (but probably from 2025). As part of this ban, Zigarren.Zone will also be affected. We provide information and reviews on various cigar brands. With the ban, it will no longer be possible for consumers to freely inform themselves about different cigars. Advertising for tobacco products will be severely restricted.

    Why is Open Access important?

    It is important that consumers continue to have access to important information in order to make decisions. These open-access articles can help bridge this gap and ensure that important information is accessible to all.

    This is because they play an important role for the readers of Zigarren.Zone and for the cigar industry. They ensure that information is available to the public without legal restrictions. Free public access to thematically relevant information about cigars and cigarillos is of great importance. They enable and promote the exchange of knowledge about a legal product.

    We are happy to answer any questions you may have. Please contact: info@crazycat-media.com, Mr Vasilij Ratej or Crazycat Media GmbH, Spinnlerstrasse 2, 4410 Liestal - Switzerland
