1 Controller & contact

The controller responsible for the processing of personal data in connection with this website is:

2 Scope

This policy explains how we handle personal data when you visit this website or contact us through it. We process personal data in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and its Ordinance and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We collect only the data necessary for the purposes described below.

3 Data we process

a) Data you provide to us

When you use our contact form or write to us, we process the data you choose to provide — typically your name, email address, organisation, country/jurisdiction, your investor or partner category, and the content of your message. Providing this data is voluntary; without it, we may be unable to respond to your enquiry.

b) Data collected automatically

When you access the website, our infrastructure and hosting provider automatically process technical data required to deliver the site securely — such as your IP address, the date and time of access, the pages requested, the referring page, and information about your browser and operating system (server log files).

4 Purposes & legal basis

We process personal data for the following purposes:

• to respond to your enquiries and to communicate with you, including sharing further information you request on your own initiative;
• to operate, secure and maintain the website and to prevent misuse and ensure IT security;
• to comply with legal and regulatory obligations to which we are subject;
• to protect our rights and legitimate interests, for example in connection with potential business relationships.

Under Swiss data protection law, private controllers do not require a specific statutory justification to process personal data lawfully, provided the general principles (lawfulness, good faith, proportionality, purpose limitation, transparency and data security) are respected. Where the GDPR applies, we rely on your consent, the performance of pre-contractual or contractual measures, compliance with legal obligations, and/or our legitimate interests as the applicable legal bases.

5 Cookies & analytics

This website uses only the cookies strictly necessary for its technical operation. This website does not use web-analytics, tracking, profiling, advertising or social-media tools, and it embeds no third-party content. Only technically necessary cookies (for example a session cookie required to operate the website) are used; these do not require consent. Should analytics or comparable tools be introduced in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated and, where legally required, consent will be obtained via a cookie banner.

You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. Disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the functioning of the website.

6 Recipients & processors

We do not sell personal data. We may disclose personal data to:

• service providers who process data on our behalf as processors (for example hosting, IT, email and, where applicable, professional advisers), bound by contract to process data only on our instructions;
• affiliated companies and business partners, where necessary for the purposes described above;
• authorities, courts or other third parties where we are legally required to do so or where necessary to protect our rights.

7 Transfers abroad

Personal data is processed primarily in Switzerland and the EU/EEA. Where data is transferred to a country that does not offer an adequate level of data protection, we ensure appropriate safeguards — in particular the applicable standard contractual clauses recognised by the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) — or rely on a statutory exception. Apart from our web-hosting provider — which operates the servers on which this website runs, located in Switzerland — no personal data is disclosed to third parties or transferred abroad. As the website integrates no analytics, advertising or third-party services, no personal data is transmitted to providers such as Google or social networks.

8 Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required to comply with applicable legal retention obligations. Server log data is retained for a limited period for security and troubleshooting and is then deleted or anonymised.

9 Data security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration. Data transmission over the internet can nevertheless never be fully secured against access by third parties.

10 Your rights

Subject to the conditions and limits of applicable law, you have the right to:

• obtain information as to whether and which personal data concerning you we process (right of access);
• request the rectification of inaccurate data;
• request the deletion or destruction of your data;
• object to processing or request that processing be restricted;
• request the disclosure or transfer of data you have provided (data portability), where applicable;
• withdraw any consent you have given, with effect for the future.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority — in Switzerland, the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), www.edoeb.admin.ch.

11 EU/EEA visitors (GDPR)

Where the GDPR applies to our processing of your personal data, you additionally have the rights afforded under that regulation, including the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. This website is directed at users in Switzerland and is not aimed at users in the European Union or the EEA. Processing is governed by the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revFADP / nDSG). As the website is not directed at the EU/EEA, the EU GDPR does not apply on an ongoing basis and no EU representative pursuant to Art. 27 GDPR has been appointed.

12 Changes

We may amend this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our processing activities or in the applicable law. The version published on this website at the time of your visit applies.
