Processing of Personal Data

Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual. A data subject is a person whose personal data is being processed. Processing encompasses any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and methods used, including, in particular, the storage, disclosure, collection, erasure, retention, modification, destruction, and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. To the extent that the EU GDPR applies, we also process personal data on the following legal bases in conjunction with Article 6(1) of the GDPR:

• Processing of personal data with the data subject’s consent.
• Processing of personal data to fulfill a contract with the data subject and to carry out related pre-contractual measures.
• Processing of personal data to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable EU law or under the applicable law of a country in which the GDPR is fully or partially applicable.
• Processing of personal data to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
• Processing of personal data to protect our legitimate interests or those of third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms, rights, and interests of the data subject take precedence. Legitimate interests include, 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 as long as is necessary to fulfill the respective purpose or purposes. In cases where we are subject to longer-term retention requirements due to legal or other obligations, we restrict our processing accordingly.
