1. Collection and processing of personal data
1.1 General personal data
We process your general personal data. Personal data refers to all information relating to an identified or identifiable person.
1.2 Data provided
You provide us with your personal data yourself when you enter it and transmit it to us. The transmission of data to us is generally voluntary, but in some cases it is mandatory in order to use our services.
1.3 Data collected
When you use our services, we collect some of your data without your active participation. This data typically includes data about your device and user behavior.
1.4 Worldwide
We work with providers from all over the world to process your personal data. This allows us to benefit from global offerings and access the best and most reliable services. The country to which the data is exported may not have the same data protection standards as Switzerland.
2. Purposes of data processing and legal bases
We use the personal data we collect primarily to conclude and process our contracts with our customers and business partners.
In addition, we process personal data of you and other persons, where permitted and deemed appropriate, for the following purposes in which we (and sometimes third parties) have a legitimate interest corresponding to the purpose:
Offering and further developing our offers, services and websites, apps and other platforms on which we are present;
Communication with third parties and processing their inquiries (e.g. applications, media inquiries);
Advertising and marketing, provided you have not objected to the use of your data (if we send you advertising as an existing customer, you can object to this at any time; we will then place you on a block list to prevent further advertising mailings);
Ensuring our operations, in particular IT, our websites, apps and other platforms;
If you have given us your consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your personal data within the scope of and based on this consent. You can revoke your consent at any time; however, this will not affect any data processing that has already taken place.
3. Cookies / tracking and other technologies related to the use of our website
3.1 Cookies
We typically use "cookies" and similar technologies on our websites that can be used to identify your browser or device. A cookie is a small file that is sent to your computer or automatically saved on your computer or mobile device by the web browser you use when you visit our website. This allows us to recognize you when you visit this website again. In addition to cookies that are only used during a session and are deleted after your visit to the website ("session cookies"), cookies can also be used to store user settings and other information for a certain period of time (e.g. two years) ("permanent cookies"). We use permanent cookies so that we can make our website user-friendly, effective and secure. However, you can set your browser to reject cookies, to only save them for a session or to delete them prematurely. If you deactivate cookies for our website, you may no longer be able to use all of the website's functions to their full extent.
3.2 Google Analytics
We occasionally use Google Analytics or similar services on our websites. This is a service provided by third parties that may be located in any country in the world (in the case of Google Analytics, this is Google Ireland (based in Ireland); Google Ireland relies on Google LLC (based in the USA) as a processor (both "Google"), www.google.com), with which we can measure and evaluate website usage (not in a personal way). Permanent cookies placed by the service provider are also used for this purpose. If you have registered with the service provider yourself, the service provider also knows you. The processing of your personal data by the service provider is then the responsibility of the service provider in accordance with its data protection regulations. The service provider only informs us how our respective website is used (no information about you personally).
3.3 Social Media
We also use plug-ins from social networks such as YouTube and LinkedIn on our websites. You will be able to see this (typically via corresponding icons). We have configured these elements to be deactivated by default. If you activate them (by clicking), the operators of the respective social networks can register that you are on our website and where you are, and can use this information for their own purposes. Your personal data will then be processed under the responsibility of that operator in accordance with its privacy policy. We will not receive any information about you from them.
4. Data sharing and data transfer abroad
Within the scope of our business activities and for the purposes set out in Section 3, we may also disclose data to third parties, where permitted and deemed appropriate, either because they process it for us or because they wish to use it for their own purposes.
Some recipients are located in Germany, but they may be located anywhere in the world. In particular, you must expect your data to be transferred to all countries in which Vuna GmbH is represented by group companies, branches, or other offices, as well as to other European countries and the USA where the service providers we use are located (such as Microsoft, SAP, Amazon).
5. Duration of storage of personal data
The data will be stored until you revoke your consent to the processing. You have the option to revoke your consent to the processing of your data at any time.
6. Data security
We take appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access and misuse.
7. Rights of the data subject
Within the scope of the data protection law applicable to you and to the extent provided therein (such as in the case of the GDPR), you have the right to information, rectification, erasure, the right to restriction of data processing and otherwise the right to object to our data processing, in particular that for the purposes of direct marketing, profiling carried out for direct advertising and other legitimate interests in processing, as well as to the release of certain personal data for the purpose of transferring it to another entity (so-called data portability).
Exercising such rights generally requires that you provide clear proof of your identity (e.g., by providing a copy of your ID card where your identity is otherwise unclear or cannot be verified). To exercise your rights, you can contact us at the address provided in Section 1.
Furthermore, every data subject has the right to enforce their claims in court or to file a complaint with the competent data protection authority. The competent data protection authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (http://www.edoeb.admin.ch).
8. Changes
We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time without prior notice. The most current version published on our website applies. If this Privacy Policy is part of an agreement with you, we will notify you of any changes by email or other appropriate means.
