This data is used exclusively for the stated business purposes and is generally not shared with third parties without your consent.

There is no obligation to provide your personal data. Please note, however, that our services cannot be provided if you do not supply the data strictly necessary for them.

Legal Bases and Purposes of Data Processing

Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal data described in this privacy policy depends on the data we collect and the specific purposes for which we collect it:

  • Contract: To fulfil our (pre-)contractual obligations or to take steps in connection with a contract with you.

  • Consent: We may rely on your freely given consent at the time you provided your personal data.

  • Legitimate interests: We may rely on legitimate interests based on our assessment that processing is fair and reasonable and where your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms do not override those interests.

  • Necessity to comply with legal obligations: To fulfil legal and public-interest obligations.

Retention Periods

We retain personal data for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and in accordance with legal, regulatory, or contractual requirements. After this period, we delete or fully anonymize your personal data.

Data Disclosure

We may disclose personal data to the extent necessary to comply with legal obligations, respond to legitimate requests from authorities, protect the security of the website and our rights or property, or prevent or investigate potential misconduct in connection with our services.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss, manipulation, and unauthorised access, and continuously adapt these to the current state of the art. Employees and contracted service providers are bound to confidentiality and compliance with applicable data protection regulations, and are granted access to personal data only to the extent necessary to fulfil their tasks.

All data transmitted between your browser and our website is secured via HTTPS. Despite all security measures, absolute security during data transmission over the internet or in electronic storage cannot be guaranteed.

Your Rights

To exercise your data protection rights, you may contact us at the address above or send an email to info@swissplant.ch. Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before responding substantively to such requests.

  • Right of access: You have the right to request a copy of your personal data, which we will provide in electronic form.

  • Right to rectification: You have the right to ask us to correct our records if you believe they contain inaccurate or incomplete information about you.

  • Right to withdraw consent: If you have consented to the processing of your personal data, you may withdraw that consent at any time with future effect. Following receipt of your withdrawal, we will no longer process your data for the relevant purposes, unless another legal basis exists.

  • Right to erasure: You have the right to request deletion of your personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or when it has been processed unlawfully.

  • Right to restriction of processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data if it is inaccurate, if processing is unlawful, or if we no longer need it but are unable to delete it due to legal obligations or at your request.

  • Right to data portability: You have the right to request that we transfer your personal data in a common, machine-readable format to you or another controller.

  • Right to object to processing: Where processing of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest, you may object on grounds relating to your particular situation. We will cease processing unless there are compelling legitimate grounds or legal claims that require it.

  • Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates data protection law. The competent supervisory authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), Feldeggweg 1, CH-3003 Bern (www.edoeb.admin.ch). Where the GDPR is applicable, you may also contact the supervisory authority in your place of residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement.
