Countries to which we transfer your personal data

We may transfer your personal data to recipients abroad, including countries that do not guarantee a level of data protection equivalent to Swiss law. We will normally make such a transfer if this is necessary for the performance of a contract with or in the interest of a data subject, or for its conclusion, or for the assertion, enforcement or defence of legal claims.

If, in exceptional cases, we transfer data to a country without adequate statutory data protection, we ensure an adequate level of protection as required by law by using appropriate contracts (in particular on the basis of the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses, which can be found here: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2021/914/oj?, including the supplements required for Switzerland) or binding corporate rules. Binding Corporate Rules for an appropriate level of protection or rely on the legal exceptions of consent, contract processing, the establishment, exercise, or enforcement of legal claims, overriding public interests, published personal data or because it is necessary to protect the integrity of the data subjects.

How we store your personal data

We store your personal data for as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and as long as we have a legitimate interest in retaining personal data, for example to implement or defend legal claims or for archiving purposes and for IT security. We also store your personal data if and for as long as we are legally obliged to do so.

You are also entitled to request a copy of your personal data. You can also have your data corrected or deleted, restrict our processing activities relating to this information and object to the processing of your personal data. You can also decide to withdraw your consent.

Please note that conditions, exceptions, or restrictions may apply to these rights (e.g. to protect third parties, business secrets, to fulfil legal obligations or because we are obliged to retain the data). We reserve the right to redact copies for reasons of data protection or confidentiality or to provide only excerpts. The exercise of your rights may conflict with contractual agreements, and this may have consequences such as premature termination of the contract or cost consequences. We will inform you in advance if this is not already contractually regulated. Please also note that even if you have decided to withdraw your consent or request the deletion of your data, we may continue to process your personal data to the extent required or permitted by law.

You can also lodge a complaint with a local supervisory authority, in Switzerland with the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner.
