3. General Information and Mandatory Notice

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

By using this website, various personal data will be collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g. in email communications) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to guarantee the complete protection of data from access by third parties.

Notice regarding the responsible body

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Eoswiss Engineering Sarl
Soleure Road 6
CH 1207 Geneva
Switzerland

Phone: +41225520562
Email: info@eoswiss.ch

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage duration

Unless a more specific retention period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases to apply. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we have no other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods); in the latter case, deletion will occur after these reasons no longer apply.

General information on the legal bases for data processing on this website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, insofar as special categories of data are processed in accordance with Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR. In the event of express consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information in your end device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), the data processing is also carried out on the basis of Section 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for the fulfilment of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if this is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. Data processing may also be carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Information on the relevant legal bases in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Note on data transfer to third countries with inadequate data protection and transfer to US companies not DPF-certified

Amongst other things, we use tools from companies based in third countries that are not considered safe from a data protection perspective, as well as US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. We would like to point out that a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed in third countries that are not considered safe from a data protection perspective.

We would like to point out that the USA, as a safe third country, generally has a comparable level of data protection to the EU. Data transfer to the USA is therefore permissible if the recipient has certification under the „EU-US Data Privacy Framework“ (DPF) or possesses appropriate additional safeguards. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.

Recipients of personal data

As part of our business activities, we collaborate with various external parties. This sometimes requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties if it is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., transfer of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using processors, we only transfer our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid order processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent that has already been given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out up to the point of revocation shall remain unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to data processing in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

Where the processing of data is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. You can find the respective legal basis on which processing is based in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR).

SHOULD YOUR PERSONAL DATA BE PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR SUCH MARKETING, INCLUDING PROFILING IN SO FAR AS IT IS CONNECTED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOUR PERSONAL DATA SHALL NO LONGER BE PROCESSED FOR THESE PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right of complaint to the competent supervisory authority

In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State where they have their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to complain shall be without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible.

Information, Rectification, and Deletion

You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing at any time within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, and if applicable, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us regarding this at any time. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we will generally need time to verify it. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, instead of its erasure.
  • If you have lodged an objection under Article 21(1) of the GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may – apart from its storage – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

SSL or TLS encryption

This page uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of sensitive content, such as orders or enquiries, that you send to us as the site operator.

This data can be used with Google signals for personalised advertising. If you have a Google account, visitor data from Google signals will be linked to your Google account and used for personalised advertising messages. The data is also used to create anonymised statistics on the behaviour of our users.

Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics

Google AdSense (non-personalised)

This website uses Google AdSense, a service for including advertisements. The provider is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use Google AdSense in „non-personalised“ mode. Unlike personalised mode, advertisements are therefore not based on your previous user behaviour and no user profile of you is created.

The selected advertisements are then based, for example, on your location, the content of the website you are on, or your current search terms. You can find out more about the differences between personalised and non-personalised targeting with Google AdSense here: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/9007336.

Furthermore, the advertising target groups created with Google Ads Remarketing can be linked with Google's cross-device functionalities. In this way, interest-based, personalised advertising messages, which have been adapted to you based on your previous usage and browsing behaviour on one device (e.g. mobile phone), can also be displayed on another of your devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

If you have a Google Account, you can opt out of personalised advertising at the following link: https://adssettings.google.com/anonymous?hl=de.

Google Konverteringssporing

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The provider is Google Ireland Limited („Google“), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

With the help of Google Conversion Tracking, Google and we can detect whether a user has performed specific actions.

This website uses ActiveCampaign for sending newsletters. The provider is ActiveCampaign, Inc., 1 N Dearborn, 5th Floor Chicago, Illinois 60602, USA.

ActiveCampaign is a service that can be used to organise and analyse the sending of newsletters, among other things. The data you enter for the purpose of newsletter subscription will be stored on ActiveCampaign's servers in the USA.

Data Analysis by ActiveCampaign

Using ActiveCampaign, we can analyse our newsletter campaigns. For example, we can see if a newsletter message has been opened and which links, if any, have been clicked. This allows us to determine, among other things, which links have been clicked most often.

Furthermore, we can see if specific predefined actions were carried out after opening / clicking (conversion rate). For example, we can see if you made a purchase after clicking on the newsletter.

ActiveCampaign also allows us to segment recipients of our newsletters into various categories (“cluster”). For example, newsletter recipients can be segmented by age, gender, or place of residence. This enables us to tailor newsletters more effectively to specific target groups. If you do not wish to have your data analysed by ActiveCampaign, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a corresponding link for this in every newsletter message.

Detailed information on ActiveCampaign's features can be found at the following link: https://www.activecampaign.com/email-marketing.

ActiveCampaign's privacy policy can be found at: https://www.activecampaign.com/privacy-policy.

The data you have provided to us for the purpose of subscribing to our newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter, or by the newsletter service provider, and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe. Data stored by us for other purposes will remain unaffected by this.

Following your unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your e-mail address may be stored on a blacklist by us or the newsletter service provider if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data on the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be combined with other data. This serves your interests as well as our interest in complying with legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR). Storage on the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interests.

YouTube with enhanced privacy

This website embeds videos from the website YouTube. The operator of the website is Google Ireland Limited („Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in an advanced data protection mode. According to YouTube, videos played in advanced data protection mode are not used for personalising browsing on YouTube. Advertisements shown in advanced data protection mode are also not personalised. No cookies are set in advanced data protection mode. However, so-called local storage elements are saved in the user's browser, which, similar to cookies, contain personal data and can be used for recognition. You can find details on advanced data protection mode here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780.

If necessary, after activating a YouTube video, further data processing operations may be triggered, over which we have no influence.
