2. General principles

2.1 What data do we collect from you and from whom do we receive this data?

First and foremost, we process personal data that you provide to us or that we collect when operating our website. We may also receive personal data about you from third parties. This may include the following categories:

personal master data (name, address, date of birth, etc.);
contact data (cell phone number, email address, etc.);
financial data (e.g. account details);
online identifiers (e.g. cookie identifiers, IP addresses);
location and traffic data;
sound and image recordings

2.2 Under what conditions do we process your data?

We treat your data confidentially and in accordance with the purposes set out in this privacy policy. We pay attention to transparent and proportionate processing.

If, in exceptional cases, we are unable to comply with these principles, data processing may still be lawful because there is a justification. In particular, the following grounds for justification may apply:

your consent;
the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures;
our legitimate interests, provided that your interests do not prevail.

2.3 How can you withdraw your consent?

If you have given us your consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your data within the scope of this consent, unless we have another justification.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by sending an e-mail to the address given in the legal notice. Data processing that has already taken place is not affected by this.

2.4 In which cases can we pass on your data to third parties?

a. Principle
We may need to use the services of third parties or affiliated companies and commission them to process your data (so-called processors). Categories of recipients are in particular: ‍

Accounting, fiduciary and auditing companies;
consulting companies (legal advice, taxes, etc.);
IT service providers (web hosting, support, cloud services, website design, etc.);
payment service providers; providers of tracking, conversion and advertising services.

We ensure that these third parties and our affiliated companies comply with data protection requirements and treat your personal data confidentially.

We may also be obliged to disclose your personal data to authorities.

b. Visiting our social media channels
We may have embedded links to our social media channels on our website. This is visible to you in each case (typically via corresponding icons). If you click on the icons, you will be redirected to our social media channels.

In this case, the social media providers are informed that you have accessed their platform from our website. The social media providers can use the data collected in this way for their own purposes. We would like to point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by the providers.

c. Transfer abroad
Under certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to companies abroad as part of order processing. These companies are obliged to protect data to the same extent as we are. The transfer may take place worldwide.

If the level of data protection does not correspond to that in Switzerland, we will carry out a prior risk assessment and contractually ensure that the same level of protection is guaranteed as in Switzerland (e.g. by means of the new standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or other legally prescribed measures). If our risk assessment is negative, we will take additional technical measures to protect your data. You can access the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses at the following link: https://commission.europa.eu/publications/standard-contractual-clauses-controllers-and-processors-eueea_de

2.5 How long do we store your data?

We only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfill the individual purposes for which the data was collected.

Data that we store when you visit our website is stored for twelve months. An exception applies to analysis and tracking data, which may be stored for longer.

We store contract data for longer, as we are obliged to do so by law. In particular, we must store business communications, concluded contracts and accounting documents for up to 10 years. If we no longer need such data from you to perform the services, the data will be blocked and we will only use it for accounting and tax purposes.

2.6 How do we protect your data?

We will store your data securely and take all reasonable measures to protect your data from loss, access, misuse or alteration.

Our contractual partners and employees who have access to your data are obliged to comply with data protection regulations. In some cases, it will be necessary for us to pass on your inquiries to companies affiliated with us. Your data will also be treated confidentially in these cases.

Within our website, we use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) method in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser.

you have given your consent for the processing of this data; or you have disclosed data in connection with the conclusion or performance of a contract.

We may restrict or refuse to provide information or data if this conflicts with our legal obligations, our own legitimate interests, public interests or the interests of a third party.

The processing of your request is subject to the statutory processing period of 30 days. However, we may extend this period due to a high volume of requests, for legal or technical reasons or because we require more detailed information from you. You will be informed of the extension in good time, at least in text form.

b. Deletion and correction
You have the option of requesting the deletion or correction of your data at any time. We may reject the request if statutory provisions oblige us to store the data for a longer period or to store it unchanged or if your request conflicts with a legal permission.

Please note that exercising your rights may be in conflict with contractual agreements and may have a corresponding impact on the performance of the contract (e.g. premature termination of the contract or cost consequences).

c. Legal recourse If you are affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to enforce your rights in court or to file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
