I have created this searchfunction that looks like this:

function search_data_fetch() {
    $search_query = new WP_Query( array( 'posts_per_page' => -1, 's' => esc_attr( $_POST['keyword'] ), 'post_type' => 'visitor' ) );
    if ( $search_query->have_posts() ) {
        while( $search_query->have_posts() ) {
          $search_query->the_post();
          ?>

              <div class="module">
                    <span class="infos-name"><?php the_title(); ?></span>
                    <span class="infos-nick"><?php echo the_content(); ?></span>
              </div>

        <?php
        }
        wp_reset_postdata();
    }
    else {
        ?>
              <div id="nothing_found">
                <p>Nothing found</p>
              </div>
    <?php
    }
  die();
}
add_action('wp_ajax_data_fetch', 'search_data_fetch');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_data_fetch', 'search_data_fetch');

And the posts I search for with the custom post type visitor all have a custom meta data field that is called visitor-hide and when it is set to yes I want it to not be visible in the search at all. So how do I exclude posts which have the meta data visitor-hide set to yes from the search results while showing every other post with this post type.

Thank you!

You need an additional parameter meta_query in the WP_Query arguments.

$query_args = [
    'posts_per_page' => -1, 
    's' => esc_attr( $_POST['keyword'] ),
    'post_type'  => 'visitor',

    'meta_query' => [
        'key'     => 'visitor-hide',
        'value'   => 'yes',
        'compare' => '!=',
    ]
]

or in cases like yours (query by single custom field):

$query_args = [
    'posts_per_page' => -1, 
    's' => esc_attr( $_POST['keyword'] ),
    'post_type'  => 'visitor',

    'key'     => 'visitor-hide',
    'value'   => 'yes',
    'compare' => '!=',
]
