Privacy Policy

Last updated on 25 May 2024

Transparent handling of personal data is very important to us.
This privacy policy provides information on what personal data we collect, for what purpose and to whom we pass it on. We regularly review and update this privacy policy to ensure the highest level of transparency.

What data we collect

General personal data

We process your general personal data. Personal data is any type of information that relates to an identifiable natural person. The natural person is identifiable if conclusions can be drawn about the identity of the person from the available information.

Example: Your name, IP address and home address are personal data.

Transferred data

You often provide us with your personal data yourself. Whenever you enter your personal data and transmit it to us, it is deemed to have been provided to us. The transmission of data to us is basically voluntary, but in some cases it is mandatory in order to be able to use our offers.

Example:
You enter your data in a contact form or sign up for a newsletter.

Data collected

When you use our services, we sometimes collect their data without your active participation. This data is usually data about your device and data about user behavior.

Example: We collect data about the operating system of the device you used to access our website.

Product development

We strive to continuously improve our offer. For this purpose, we use your personal data for the development and improvement of our products and services.

Example: We collect data about visitor behavior on the website in order to constantly improve the user experience.

Data sharing

We share your personal data with companies that can decide for themselves how to use the data. Most often, this is done because it is necessary to comply with legal requirements, when an outstanding debt is transferred to a collection agency, or when to detect fraudulent activity.

Example: A legal requirement obliges us to pass on your data to an authority.

Worldwide

We work with providers from all over the world to process your personal data. This allows us to benefit from the global offering and access the best and most reliable services. Under certain circumstances, the country to which the data is exported does not have the same data protection standard as Switzerland.

Example: We use the services of a cloud provider such as Google, which is based in the USA.
