Data processors We may engage third parties to provide certain services (e.g. in IT, application operation, administration, shipping, etc.) and to process and store data (so-called “data processors”). Data processors may have access to personal data and process it on our behalf. We oblige our processors to comply with data protection law and to process data only as we instruct. Data processors that receive personal data may be located in various countries, in particular in Switzerland.
Contractual partners
We may disclose data to contractual partners (for example distribution partners, service providers, etc.). This may occur for example in order to fulfill contractual obligations, to provide certain services, for debt collection and marketing purposes, for analyzing usage and operating our services, systems and infrastructure. Contractual partners may receive access to personal data and process it for their own purposes (for example for performance of their contract or to fulfill their own legal obligations). They are themselves obliged to comply with applicable data protection laws. Contractual partners that receive personal data may be located in various countries, in particular in Switzerland.
Transfers to authorities
In certain situations we may disclose data to authorities, official bodies and other third parties. We do so where we are legally or officially required to do so or where we consider ourselves obliged to do so.
7. Retention period
We retain personal data as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Certain personal data may also be subject to legally binding retention obligations of ten or more years, which we take into account. We may also retain personal data for at least the duration of applicable limitation periods, which in many cases is five or ten years. Personal data generated in connection with the use of our services (e.g. logs, analyses, etc.) that are not subject to such retention or limitation periods are generally deleted earlier once we no longer have an interest in processing them. Data may also be retained in anonymized form for longer periods. Unless expressly agreed otherwise by contract, we are not obliged to retain data for any specific duration.
8. Data security
We use the common SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol for transmission during visits to the website. You can tell whether an individual page of our website is transmitted encrypted by the closed representation of the key or lock symbol in the address bar of your browser.
In addition, we apply other appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
9. Your rights (data subject rights)
Every data subject has the right to obtain information about the personal data concerning them. They also have the right to request that we rectify, delete or restrict the processing of personal data concerning them and to object to such processing. The exercise of such rights usually requires that the data subject can clearly prove their identity. If the processing of personal data is based on consent, the data subject may withdraw the consent at any time. In EU/EFTA states, the data subject may, in certain cases, have the right to receive the data generated during the use of online services in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format enabling further use and transmission. Requests in connection with these rights should be directed to the address given above. We reserve the right to restrict the rights of the data subject under applicable law, e.g. not to provide full information or not to delete data. We would also like to point out that deleting your personal data may result in services being unavailable or unusable in whole or in part.
Every data subject has the right to file a complaint with the competent data protection authority. For a controller located in Switzerland, this is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (http://www.edoeb.admin.ch).
