5. Legal Basis for Processing
The applicable legal basis depends on the circumstances and the nature of the processing.
Where the GDPR applies, we may rely on one or more of the following legal bases under Article 6 GDPR:
5.1 Legitimate interests
We may process contact information where this is necessary for our legitimate interests, such as responding to business enquiries, communicating with prospective clients, maintaining business relationships, protecting our Website and IT systems, and managing the operation of our business.
When relying on legitimate interests, we consider whether our interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.
5.2 Performance of a contract or steps prior to entering into a contract
Where your enquiry relates to the potential conclusion of a contract, we may process the information you provide where this is necessary to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract or to perform a contract.
5.3 Legal obligations
We may process personal data where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation applicable to us.
5.4 Consent
Where applicable law requires consent for a particular processing activity, we will obtain your consent before carrying out that processing.
You may withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
Under Swiss data protection law, personal data is also processed in accordance with the applicable requirements of the FADP and related legislation.
6. How We Use Personal Data
We may use personal data for the following purposes:
to respond to enquiries submitted through the Website;
to communicate with current and prospective clients;
to discuss our services;
to prepare proposals, offers or contracts;
to perform contractual obligations;
to maintain business correspondence;
to operate, maintain and secure the Website;
to detect and prevent fraud, abuse, cyberattacks and other security incidents;
to comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements;
to establish, exercise or defend legal claims where necessary.
We do not sell your personal data.
We do not rent your personal data to third parties.
We do not use contact form information for unrelated advertising purposes.
7. Data Minimisation
We seek to collect and process only personal data that is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
The contact form is intentionally limited to basic contact information.
You are not required to provide information that is not necessary for us to respond to your enquiry.
If a particular field is marked as optional, you may choose not to provide the corresponding information.
8. Who May Receive Your Personal Data
We may disclose personal data to third parties only where this is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or where required or permitted by applicable law.
Depending on how the Website and our business are operated, recipients may include:
website hosting providers;
email and communication service providers;
IT and cybersecurity service providers;
technical maintenance providers;
professional advisers, such as lawyers, accountants or auditors;
competent courts, authorities or governmental bodies where required by law;
other service providers acting on our behalf and under appropriate contractual or legal safeguards.
Where a service provider processes personal data on our behalf, we take appropriate steps to ensure that the processing is carried out in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.
We do not permit service providers to use your personal data for their own independent marketing purposes unless separately authorised and legally permitted.
9. International Data Transfers
Because we operate internationally and use technical service providers that may be located in different countries, personal data may in certain circumstances be transferred to or accessed from countries outside Switzerland and/or the European Economic Area (“EEA”).
Where the Swiss FADP applies, cross-border disclosure of personal data is subject to the requirements of applicable Swiss data protection law.
Where the GDPR applies, transfers of personal data outside the EEA are carried out in accordance with Chapter V GDPR.
Depending on the destination country and circumstances, appropriate safeguards may include:
a European Commission adequacy decision;
Swiss recognition of an adequate level of data protection;
Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”);
other legally recognised contractual safeguards;
Binding Corporate Rules where applicable;
another transfer mechanism permitted under applicable law.
Where required, information about the relevant safeguards can be obtained by contacting us using the contact details provided in this Privacy Policy.
The Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner confirms that cross-border transfers may be based on an adequate level of protection or, where this is unavailable, appropriate safeguards such as recognised standard data protection clauses.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
For example:
contact enquiries may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to process the enquiry and manage the resulting business relationship;
information relating to contractual relationships may be retained for the duration of the relationship and for the period required for legal, accounting or other regulatory purposes;
technical server logs may be retained for a limited period necessary for security, troubleshooting and operational purposes.
When personal data is no longer required, we will delete it or anonymise it where reasonably possible, subject to applicable legal retention obligations.
Because the appropriate retention period depends on the specific circumstances, we may determine the exact retention period based on the nature of the data, the purpose of processing, contractual obligations, legal requirements and the need to establish or defend legal claims.
11. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on your location and the applicable data protection legislation, you may have certain rights concerning your personal data.
These may include the right to:

Withdrawal of consent
Where processing is based on consent, withdraw your consent at any time.
Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
