1.3 Legal Fundamentals
The data privacy law based term "personal data" relates to all information that is affiliated with a specific or determinable individual. We process personal data in compliance with the applicable data protection mandates, in particular the GDPR and the DSG. We process data solely on the basis of a statutory permit. We process personal data only subject to your consent (Art. 6 Sect. 1 Letter a GDPR respectively Art. 13 Sect. 1 DSG), if it is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract you are a contracting party to or upon your request to perform pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 Sect. 1 Letter b GDPR Art. respectively 13 Sect. 2 Letter a DSG ), for the fulfillment of any legal obligations (Art. 6 Sect. 1 Letter c GDPR respectively Art. 13 Sect. 1 DSG) or if such processing is necessary to protect our legitimate rights or the legitimate rights of a third party, provided this is not in conflict with your interest or fundamental rights and fundamental liberties that mandate the protection of personal data that outweigh our interests (Art. 6 Sect. 1 Letter f GDPR respectively Art. 13 Sect. 1 DSG).

If you are applying for one of our company’s job vacancies, we are processing your data also to make a decision concerning the establishment of an employment relationship.

1.4 Duration of data storage
Unless otherwise stipulated in the following passages, we store data only as long as this is necessary to attain the purpose of its processing or for the fulfillment of our contractual or statutory obligations. Such statutory retention period may arise in particular for trade or tax law provisions. As of the end of the calendar year during which the data was collected, we will archive such personal data contained in our accounting records for a period of ten years. Incidentally, we shall keep on file records of date related to evidence requiring consent as well as with claim and accounts receivable entitlements for the duration of the statutory statutes of limitation.

In conjunction with the processing of your data we also use contracted processors.

A contracted processor is either a natural or legal entity, government agency, facility or other point of contact that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller responsible for the processing of this data. Contracted processors do not utilize the data for their own purposes, but instead handle data processing exclusively as commissioned by the data controller. Contractually, they are required to warrant the utilization of suitable technical and organizational measures aiming at the protection of the data.
Incidentally, we may also share your personal data with for instance postal and courier services, our bank, tax consultants/financial auditors or the Swiss internal revenue service as well as government institutions, e.g. the Canton Cancer Register or the Federal Department of Health. To track infections, we may transfer the data to the competent health department. Other recipients may arise from the following information.

In the event of absence of a decision in favor of reasonable data protection levels by the European Commission or the Federal Council in Switzerland, the transfer of personal data to a third country shall occur only if suitable guarantees are on hand, especially if you have expressly consented to the sharing of personal data with a third country.

Unless otherwise provided in the following we use the standard data privacy clauses for the transmission of personal data into third countries.
