General

In accordance with our legal obligation, we would like to inform you about the collection and use of your personal data.

When you use our website, personal data is collected about you. This can be done by you entering the data on your own – such as your mail address. However, our system also collects data from you automatically, such as your visit to our website. This occurs regardless of the device or software with which you use our website.

Any entry of data by you on our website is voluntary, there are no disadvantages for you by not disclosing your data. Without certain data, however, it is not possible for us to provide services or conclude contracts. We will point out such mandatory data to you in each case.

On this website, personal data of the user is only collected within the framework of the applicable data protection law, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO). The technical terms used in the text are explained in more detail in Art. 4 of the DSGVO.

Data processing is permitted under the DSGVO in three cases in particular:

according to Art. 6 (1) lit. a and 7 DSGVO, if you have consented to data processing by us; in each case, we will inform you in advance in this data protection declaration and on the occasion of the consent in accordance with Art. 4 No. 11 DSGVO exactly for what purpose and under what circumstances your data will be processed by us;
according to Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO, if the processing of your personal data is necessary for the initiation, conclusion or execution of a contractual relationship;
according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, if, after a balancing of interests, the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests; this includes, in particular, our interests in analyzing, optimizing and securing the offer on our website – this includes, in particular, an analysis of user behavior, the creation of profiles for advertising purposes and the storage of access data, as well as the use of third-party providers.
Inventory data
We collect inventory data to the extent that it is necessary for the establishment, content or modification of a contractual relationship (also free of charge) between us and the user. This may include: Customer data (e.g. name, address), contact data (e.g. e-mail address, telephone number), performance data (e.g. ordered service, term, fee). When the user relationship is established, we will request this data from you (e.g. name, address and e-mail address) and also inform you of the extent to which the information is required in each case in order to establish the user relationship.

data Usage

Furthermore, we collect usage data to enable the user’s use of the services on our website. This may include: Usage data (e.g. web pages or areas accessed, duration of visit, interest in services), content data (e.g. data entered or uploaded by you, texts, images, sounds, videos), metadata (e.g. identity of your device, location, IP address).

We will only aggregate usage data if and to the extent necessary for billing purposes. Otherwise, we will only create usage data pseudonymously and only if you have not objected to this. You can send this objection at any time to the address given in the imprint or to the responsible person named in this privacy policy.

The legal basis for this data processing is, on the one hand, our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO in the analysis of the website and its use, and, if applicable, also the legal permission to store data as part of the initiation of a contractual relationship pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO.

WPX
Our website is made available for retrieval on the Internet by a service provider (provider or hoster). We use the service of WPX represented by K Media Tech (owner of WPX) BG 202249002 #13, 20th April Street, Sofia 1000, Bulgaria for this purpose. We have concluded an order processing agreement with our provider. According to this, our provider is obliged to process your data only on our behalf and according to our instructions. For further information on data processing by our provider, please refer to their privacy policy at https://www.novatrend.ch/de/datenschutz. The legal basis for this data processing is, on the one hand, our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO in the provision and use of our website on the Internet and, where relevant, also the legal permission to store data as part of the initiation of a contractual relationship pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO.

Each time you use this website, our provider processes information, the so-called server log files, which are automatically transmitted by your browser each time you call up websites on the Internet. These are:

  • Your IP address
  • Type and version of your browser
  • Host name
  • time of visit
  • the website from which you visited our website
  • name of the website you visited
  • exact time of the call and
  • the amount of data transferred

This data is only used for statistical purposes and does not allow us to identify you as a user.

Initial contact by electronic request

If you contact us in electronic form (e.g. e-mail, fax, telephone, messenger, etc.), we store and process the data that you have made known to us (e.g. name, contact information, content of the inquiry). The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in effective customer communication pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO and, insofar as it concerns a request to enter into or fulfill a contract, also Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO.
We will only pass on this data to third parties insofar as it is necessary (according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO) for the fulfillment of the contract, this corresponds to the overriding interest in effective performance (according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) or your consent (according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) or another legal permission or obligation exists.
You can request information about the purpose of processing, origin and, if applicable, recipients of your personal data from us free of charge at any time. Furthermore, you can assert the correction, the deletion and the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may object to the (further) processing of your data at any time and have a right to data portability as well as a right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
In principle, your data will only be stored for as long as required by the purpose of the respective data processing. Further storage is mainly considered if this is still necessary for legal prosecution or for legitimate interests or if there is a legal obligation to still store the data (e.g. tax retention periods, statute of limitations).

Consent

Where we ask for your consent to process your data, we will inform you in clear language and easily accessible about the cases for which you give your consent. Any consent we ask for is voluntary, any benefit you wish to obtain by giving consent can be obtained without the consent, just ask us.

For any consent, you have the right to revoke any consent given to us to process your personal data at any time. This can be done by an informal message, for example, via our contact form, an email to the email address provided in the imprint or an unsubscribe link (if offered by us). Your revocation does not affect the lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to that point.

Storage period

In principle, your data will only be stored for as long as the purpose of the respective data processing requires. Further storage is mainly considered if this is still necessary for legal prosecution by us or for our other legitimate interests.
For your inventory data that was required for the fulfillment of a contractual relationship (also free of charge), this means that we store it until the complete fulfillment or termination of the contractual relationship plus the limitation period (which is generally 2 or 3 years) plus an appropriate surcharge for any interruption of the limitation period.
For your usage data collected on the occasion of your use of the website, this means that we will only store it for as long as this is still necessary for the proper functioning of our website and our legitimate interest is sufficient. In the first instance, we will only store statistical data in pseudonymized form.
In addition, we still store your data insofar as we are legally obligated to do so. These are in particular the tax retention periods, which are generally 6 or even 10 years.
