Processing of personal data

Personal data is all information that relates to a specific or identifiable person. A data subject is a person whose personal data is processed.

We process personal data pursuant to the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection. In addition, we process personal data pursuant to the following legal bases in connection with Art. 6 Para. 1 of the GDPR - to the extent and insofar as the EU GDPR is applicable:

lit. c) Processing of personal data to fulfill a legal obligation to which we are subject under any applicable EU law or under any applicable law of a country in which the GDPR is fully or partially applicable.

lit. d) Processing of personal data in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.

lit. f) Processing of personal data in order to safeguard our legitimate interests or those of third parties, provided that the fundamental freedoms and fundamental rights and interests of the data subject do not prevail. Legitimate interests are in particular our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for the duration necessary for the respective purpose or purposes. In the case of longer-lasting storage obligations due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict processing accordingly.

GDPR in order to provide you with our contractual or pre-contractual services. The data processed here, the type, scope and purpose and the necessity of their processing are determined by the underlying contractual relationship.

The processed data includes the master data of our contractual partners (e.g. names and addresses), contact data (e.g. e-mail addresses and telephone numbers) as well as contract data (e.g. services used, contract content, contractual communication, names of contact persons) and payment data (e.g. bank details, payment history ).

In principle, we do not process special categories of personal data, unless these are part of commissioned or contractual processing.

We process data that is required to justify and fulfill the contractual services and point out the need to provide them if this is not evident to the contractual partner. Disclosure to external persons or companies will only take place if it is required under a contract. When processing the data provided to us as part of an order, we act in accordance with the instructions of the client and the legal requirements.

When using our online services, we can save the IP address and the time of the respective user action. The storage takes place on the basis of our legitimate interests, as well as the interests of the user in protection against misuse and other unauthorized use. In principle, this data will not be passed on to third parties unless it is necessary to pursue our claims in accordance with Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR or there is a legal obligation to do so in accordance with Article 6 (1) (c). GDPR.

The data will be deleted when the data is no longer required to fulfill contractual or legal duties of care or to deal with any warranty and comparable obligations, with the necessity of storing the data being checked at irregular intervals. Otherwise, the statutory retention requirements apply.

Administration, financial accounting, office organization, contact management

We process data in accordance with the data protection regulations of the federal government (Federal Act on Data Protection, FADP) and the EU-DSGVO in the context of administrative tasks and organization of our operations, financial accounting and compliance with legal obligations, such as archiving. In doing so, we process the same data that we process within the scope of providing our contractual services. The basis of processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c. GDPR, Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. Customers, interested parties, business partners and website visitors are affected by the processing. The purpose and our interest in processing lies in administration, financial accounting, office organization, archiving of data, i.e. tasks that serve to maintain our business activities, perform our tasks and provide our services. The deletion of the data with regard to contractual services and contractual communication corresponds to the information given in these processing activities.

We disclose or transmit data to the financial administration, consultants such as tax consultants or auditors as well as other fee offices and payment service providers.

Furthermore, on the basis of our business interests, we store information on suppliers, organizers and other business partners, e.g. for the purpose of later contact. We store this mostly company-related data permanently.

Provision of our services according to statutes

We process the data of our members, supporters, interested parties, customers or other persons in accordance with the data protection regulations of the Federal Government (Federal Act on Data Protection, FADP) and the EU GDPR pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b. DSGVO, insofar as we offer them contractual services or act within the framework of an existing business relationship, e.g. towards members, or are recipients of services and benefits ourselves. In addition, we process the data of affected persons pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interests, e.g. when it comes to administrative tasks or public relations work.

The data processed here, the type, scope and purpose and the necessity of their processing are determined by the underlying contractual relationship. This basically includes inventory and master data of the persons (e.g. name, address, etc.), as well as the contact data (e.g. e-mail address, telephone, etc.), the contract data (e.g. services used, content communicated and information, names of contact persons) and if we offer paid services or products, payment data (e.g. bank details, payment history, etc.).

We delete data that is no longer required to provide the statutory purposes. This is determined according to the respective tasks and contractual relationships. In the case of business processing, we keep the data for as long as they can be relevant for business transactions and with regard to any warranty or liability obligations. The necessity of storing the data is checked at irregular intervals. Otherwise, the statutory retention requirements apply.
