3. general principles

3.1 What data we collect from you and from whom we receive this data

We primarily process personal data that you transmit to us or that we collect when operating our website. We may also receive personal data about you from third parties. This may include the following categories:

  • Personal master data (name, address, date of birth, etc.);
  • Contact data (cell phone number, e-mail address, etc.);
  • Financial data (e.g. account details);
  • Online identifiers (e.g. cookie identifiers, IP addresses);
  • Location and traffic data;
  • Sound and image recordings;
  • particularly sensitive data (e.g. biometric data or information about your health).

3.2 Under what conditions do we process your data?

We treat your data confidentially and in accordance with the purposes set out in this privacy policy. We pay attention to transparent and proportionate processing.
If, in exceptional cases, we are unable to comply with these principles, data processing may still be lawful because there is a justification. In particular, the following grounds for justification may apply:

  • Your consent;
  • the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures;
  • our legitimate interests, unless your interests prevail.

 

3.3 How can you withdraw your consent?

If you have given us your consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your data within the scope of this consent, unless we have another justification.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by sending an e-mail to the address given in the legal notice. Data processing that has already taken place is not affected by this.

3.4 In which cases can we pass on your data to third parties?

a. Principle

We may need to use the services of third parties or affiliated companies and commission them to process your data (so-called processors). The categories of recipients are as follows:

  • Accounting, fiduciary and auditing companies;
  • Consulting companies (legal advice, taxes, etc.);
  • IT service providers (web hosting, support, cloud services, website design, etc.);
  • Payment service providers;
  • Providers of tracking, conversion and advertising services.

We ensure that these third parties and our affiliated companies comply with data protection requirements and treat your personal data confidentially.

We may also be obliged to disclose your personal data to authorities.

b. Visiting our social media channels

We may have embedded links to our social media channels on our website. You can see this in each case (typically via corresponding icons). If you click on the icons, you will be redirected to our social media channels.

In this case, the social media providers will learn that you have accessed their platform from our website. The social media providers can use the data collected in this way for their own purposes. We would like to point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by the providers.

c. Transfer abroad

Under certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to companies abroad as part of order processing. These companies are obliged to protect data to the same extent as we are. The transfer may take place worldwide.

If the level of data protection does not correspond to that in Switzerland, we carry out a prior risk assessment and contractually ensure that the same level of protection is guaranteed as in Switzerland (e.g. by means of the new standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or other legally prescribed measures). If our risk assessment is negative, we will take additional technical measures to protect your data. You can access the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses at the following link: https://commission.europa.eu/publications/standard-contractual-clauses-controllers-and-processors-eueea_de

3.5 How long do we store your data?

We only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfill the individual purposes for which the data was collected.

Data that we store when you visit our website is stored for twelve months. An exception applies to analysis and tracking data, which may be stored for longer.

We store contract data for longer, as we are obliged to do so by law. In particular, we must store business communications, concluded contracts and accounting documents for up to 10 years. If we no longer need such data from you to perform the services, the data will be blocked and we will only use it for accounting and tax purposes.

3.6 How do we protect your data?

We will store your data securely and take all reasonable measures to protect your data from loss, access, misuse or alteration.

Our contractual partners and employees who have access to your data are obliged to comply with data protection regulations. In some cases, it will be necessary for us to pass on your inquiries to companies affiliated with us. Your data will also be treated confidentially in these cases.

Within our website, we use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) method in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser.

3.7 What rights do you have?

a. Right to information

You can request information about the data we have stored about you at any time. Please send your request for information together with proof of identity to info@trun-cultura.ch.

You also have the right to receive your data in a commonly used file format if we process your data automatically and if:

  • you have given your consent to the processing of this data; or
  • you have disclosed data in connection with the conclusion or processing of a contract.

We may restrict or refuse to provide information or data if this conflicts with our legal obligations, our own legitimate interests, public interests or the interests of a third party.

The processing of your request is subject to the statutory processing period of 30 days. However, we may extend this period due to a high volume of requests, for legal or technical reasons or because we require more detailed information from you. You will be informed of the extension in good time, at least in text form.

b. Erasure and rectification

You have the option of requesting the deletion or correction of your data at any time. We may reject the request if statutory provisions oblige us to store the data for a longer period or to store it unchanged or if your request conflicts with a legal permission.

Please note that exercising your rights may conflict with contractual agreements and may have a corresponding impact on the performance of the contract (e.g. premature termination of the contract or cost consequences).

c. Legal process

If you are affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to enforce your rights in court or to file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch

  • the name of your internet service provider;
  • Your IP address (under certain circumstances);
  • the version of your browser software
  • the operating system of the computer used to access the URL

  • the website from which you visit the URL

Why are we allowed to process this data?

This data cannot be assigned to a specific person and is not merged with other data sources. The log files are stored in order to guarantee the functionality of the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. This is our legitimate interest.

How can you prevent data collection?

The data is only stored for as long as is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Accordingly, the data is deleted at the end of each session. The storage of log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website; you therefore have no option to object to this.

4.2 MailChimp

We use the MailChimp service offered by The Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce de Leon Ave NE, Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA, to send newsletters and email notifications.

When you register for our newsletter, the data you provide and your e-mail address are transmitted to MailChimp, stored and processed. This enables us to send you regular updates, offers and information.

By registering for the newsletter, your IP address and the date of registration are stored. This storage serves solely as proof in the event that a third party misuses an e-mail address and registers to receive the newsletter without the knowledge of the authorized party.

MailChimp offers extensive analysis options on how the sent newsletters are opened and used. These analyses are group-related and are not used by us for individual evaluation.

The data stored by MailChimp will be deleted as soon as you unsubscribe from our newsletter. This does not affect data stored by us for other purposes.

MailChimp has its own privacy policies and practices, which may differ from those of our website. For more information about MailChimp’s privacy practices, please visit: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. If you have any questions about the data collected by MailChimp or wish to exercise your rights in relation to this data, you should contact The Rocket Science Group, LLC directly.

4.3 Google Maps

On our website, we use Google Maps, a map service provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). Google Maps enables us to integrate interactive maps directly into the website and allows you to conveniently use the map function, for example to search for a location or to plan your route.

When you visit the website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, further data, in particular your IP address, is transmitted to Google and stored on Google servers. These servers may be located in the USA or other countries. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether no user account exists.

Google stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the needs-based design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising.

You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact Google to exercise this right.

4.4 WordPress

Our website is based on the WordPress platform, a content management system developed by Automattic Inc, 60 29th Street #343, San Francisco, CA 94110, USA. WordPress enables us to create, manage and publish content.

When you use our website, which is based on WordPress, various data, including your IP address, the date and time of access and information about the browser you are using, may be collected and stored. This data is mainly used for administrative purposes and to ensure the smooth operation of the website.

Some WordPress functions, such as comments or contact forms, may collect additional personal data when you use them.

4.5 Google reCaptcha

We use the reCAPTCHA service provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”) to protect against unwanted requests via the Internet form on our website. The query is used to distinguish whether the input is made by a human or abusively by automated, machine processing. As part of the query, information such as your IP address or your behavior when filling out the form may be transmitted to Google.

For this purpose, your input is transmitted to Google and processed there. By using reCAPTCHA, you consent to the recognition you have provided being incorporated into the digitization of old works. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of reCAPTCHA will not be merged with other Google data.
