Contact Information
Regarding privacy and all related requests, you can contact us only by mail at the address of our company. We currently do not have a dedicated Data Protection Officer.
Principle
Your privacy is important to us. This statement sets out our legal notice and privacy policy, i.e. the processing of personal data collected via our website or online services, or more generally, in connection with the services we provide.
We collect and process your personal data with the utmost care and in compliance with the applicable legal provisions; their processing is limited to what is strictly necessary and takes place only for the purposes described in this statement. We keep your personal data only for the time necessary for the provision of our services or for the duration provided for by law. In close collaboration with our hosting provider, we make every effort to protect our databases from external intrusions, loss, misuse and falsification.
This statement is based on the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Although the GDPR is an EU regulation, it is of great importance to us. Swiss data protection law is heavily influenced by European law, and companies outside the EU or EEA are required, in some cases, to comply with the GDPR.
Use of personal data collected
We undertake to process your personal data in accordance with your privacy and in accordance with the Swiss and European legislation in force.
We collect data when you use our contact or information form. The data collected includes your name, email address and phone number.
In addition, we automatically receive and record data from your computer and browser, including your IP address, software and hardware, and the page you request.
Any data we collect from you may be used to:
– Personalize your experience and meet your individual needs
– Provide personalized advertising content
– Improve our site
– Improve customer service and your support needs
– To contact you by e-mail
Feedback
When you leave a comment on our website (if possible), the data entered in the comment form, but also your IP address and the user agent of your browser are collected to help us detect unwanted comments.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) can be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The privacy clauses of the Gravatar service are available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After validation of your comment, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.
Media
If you are given the opportunity to upload images to our website, we advise you to avoid uploading images containing EXIF data of GPS coordinates. Visitors to your website can download and extract location data from these images.
Cookies
On our website, we use “cookies” and other similar techniques to identify your browser or device. A cookie is a small file that is sent to your computer or even automatically saved on your computer or mobile device by the web browser you use when you visit our website.
Essential cookies are essential for the proper functioning of the site. They are only used during a session (“session cookies”) and are deleted once you have left the site. The cookie for which you opt in the cookie banner is an exception: a refusal of optional cookies is only recorded for the current session, a consent for one month.
We only use analytical cookies with your consent. These cookies allow us, on the basis of anonymised data, to better understand how you use our website in order to continuously optimize it. Analytical cookies are stored for a certain period of time, for example for two years (“permanent cookies”). When you visit the site again, we can recognize you even without knowing who you are. You have the possibility to accept or refuse the use of cookies as soon as you open our homepage in the popup window dedicated to this purpose, through the “reject all” or “accept all” buttons.
You can also set your browser so that it refuses cookies (essential and optional), saves them only for one session or deletes them early. Most browsers are pre-configured to accept cookies. When you disable cookies, some features (e.g. language selection) may no longer work.
In the event of sending marketing emails, we integrate, to the extent permitted, visible and invisible image elements that allow us, by consulting our servers, to determine if and when you opened the email in order to be able, in this case too, to measure and better understand how you use our offers and adapt them to your needs. You have the option to block this process in your email program.
Google Analytics
We rarely but sometimes use Google Analytics on our website. This is a third-party service that can be located in any country in the world (in the case of Google Analytics, it is Google LLC in the United States, www.google.com) through which we can measure and evaluate the use of the site (based on non-personal information). For this purpose, permanent cookies created by the service provider are also used. You can accept or reject these cookies in the cookie banner.
We do not share any personal data with the service provider (who does not store any IP addresses), but the service provider may track your use of the site, combine this information with data from other web pages that you have visited and that it also tracks, and use this information for personal purposes (e.g. advertising management). If you are registered with the service provider, they also know you. The processing of your personal data by the service provider is therefore its responsibility in accordance with its privacy policy. The service provider only tells us how our various websites are used (no personal information about you).
For more information, see Google Marketing Platform.
Marketing newsletters and emails
By using our website and consenting to receive newsletters and other marketing emails, you agree to the use of these techniques. If you do not want this, you must set up your server or e-mail program accordingly.
Plugins
We also use social media plugins for our website, which are LinkedIn and Instagram. You can view it with the corresponding symbols. We have configured these items to be disabled by default. If you activate them (by clicking on them), the data about your visit to our website will be transmitted to the operator of the social network, which may use it for its own purposes. The processing of your personal data is then the responsibility of this operator in accordance with its privacy policy. It does not send us any information about you.
Embedded content from other sites
Articles on this site (if any) may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles…). Content embedded from other sites behaves in the same way as if the visitor were visiting that other site.
These websites could collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking tools, track your interactions with this embedded content if you have a connected account on their website.
Retention period of personal data
We process and store your personal data for as long as this is necessary for the fulfilment of our contractual and legal obligations or for the purposes pursued by the processing, i.e. for the duration of a business relationship (preparation, execution and termination of a contract) and beyond this period in accordance with legal retention and documentation obligations. We may retain personal data for the period during which claims can be made against us and because we are obliged to do so by law or by legitimate business interests (e.g. for evidentiary or documentation purposes).
The rights you have over your data
If you have an account on our site, and only if you have an account, you can request to receive a file containing all the personal data we have about you, including those you have provided to us. You can also request the deletion of personal data concerning you. This does not take into account data stored for administrative, legal or security purposes.
Disclosures of your personal data to third parties
We do not sell, trade, or transfer your personally identifiable information to third parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website or conducting our business, as long as those parties agree to keep such information confidential.
We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use, or when we are required to do so by law.
Non-private information, however, may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
Protection of information
We implement a variety of security measures to keep your personal information safe. We use state-of-the-art encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online. We also protect your information offline. Only employees who need to perform specific work (e.g., billing or customer service) have access to personally identifiable information. Computers and servers used to store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
Consent
By using our site, you have read our legal notice, and you consent to our privacy policy.
