The main categories are as follows:
Technical data:
When you use our website, we collect the IP address of your device and other technical data to ensure the functionality and security of these services. This data also includes logs in which the use of our systems is recorded. We generally retain technical data for 6 months. To ensure functionality, we may assign an individual code to you or your device (e.g. in the form of a cookie; see section 11). As a rule, technical data alone does not allow conclusions to be drawn about your identity. However, in connection with user accounts, registrations, access controls, or contract processing, it may be linked with other data categories.
Communication data:
If you contact us via contact form, email, telephone, chat, letter, or other means of communication, we collect the data exchanged between you and us, including your contact details and metadata of the communication. Emails in personal mailboxes and written correspondence are generally retained for at least 10 years.
Master data:
Master data refers to basic data that we require, in addition to contractual data, for the processing of our contractual and other business relationships or for marketing purposes. This includes, for example, name, contact details, information about your role and function, bank details, date of birth, customer history, powers of attorney, signature authorizations, and declarations of consent. We process this data if you are a client or another business contact, or if you act for such a person, or because we wish to contact you for our own purposes or those of a contractual partner. We generally retain this data for 10 years from the last interaction with you, but at least from the end of the contract. For purely marketing contacts, the retention period is usually shorter, typically no more than 2 years.
Behavioral and preference data:
Depending on our relationship with you, we seek to better understand you and tailor our services accordingly. We collect and use data about your behavior and preferences, including by analyzing your behavior and supplementing it with data from third parties, including publicly available sources. We anonymize or delete such data when it is no longer relevant. Details on tracking are set out in section 11.
We process your data for the following purposes:
Where we request your consent for certain processing activities, we will inform you separately. You may withdraw your consent at any time by notifying us in writing (see section 2).
Once we receive your withdrawal, we will no longer process your data for those purposes, unless another legal basis applies. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.
We may disclose your personal data to third parties, in particular:
Service providers:
We work with service providers in Switzerland and abroad.
Authorities:
We may disclose data to courts, authorities, and regulators if required or permitted.
Other parties:
Where necessary for the purposes set out in section 4.
Your data may be processed in Europe or, in exceptional cases, worldwide. If a recipient is located in a country without adequate protection, we use standard contractual clauses or rely on legal exceptions.
We process your data for as long as necessary for our purposes, legal retention obligations, or legitimate interests. Data is deleted or anonymized once no longer required.
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.
You have rights including:
You may contact us (section 2). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
We use cookies and similar technologies to ensure functionality, analyze usage, and personalize content.
Cookies may store identifiers to recognize your device. You can manage your preferences at any time.
