Impressum / Privacy Policy

Alvra (Salamanderweg 10, 8134 Adliswil) is responsible for the data processing described here. If you have any data protection concerns, you can contact us at: Alvra Partners AG, Salamanderweg 10, 8134 Adliswil; Email: info@alvra-partners.com

We primarily process personal data that we receive from our business partners and other persons involved in connection with our business relationships, or that we collect from users when operating our website and other applications. Where permitted, we also obtain certain data from publicly accessible sources (e.g. commercial registers, press, internet) or receive such data from other companies, authorities and other third parties.

We use the personal data we collect primarily to enable visitors to use our website, to provide our services, to conclude and perform contracts with business partners, and to comply with our legal obligations domestically and abroad. If you act on behalf of such a business partner, you may also be affected in that capacity with regard to your personal data.

We typically use "cookies" and comparable techniques on our website, which can identify your browser or device. A cookie is a small file that is sent to your computer or automatically stored by the web browser used on your computer or mobile device when you visit our website. If you visit this website again, we may be able to recognize you, even if we do not know who you are. In addition to cookies that are used only during a session and 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 ("persistent cookies"). However, you can set your browser to reject cookies, to store them only for a session, or to delete them prematurely. Most browsers are set by default to accept cookies.

By using our website, you consent to the use of these techniques. If you do not want this, you must set your browser accordingly.

We sometimes use Google Analytics or comparable services on our website. 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, with Google Ireland relying on Google LLC, based in the USA, as a processor (together "Google"), www.google.com), with which we can measure and analyze the use of the website (not on a personal basis). Persistent cookies set by the service provider are also used for this purpose. Although we can assume that the information we share with Google is not personal data for Google, it is possible that Google may use this data for its own purposes to draw conclusions about the identity of visitors, create personal profiles and link this data to these persons' Google accounts. If you have registered with the service provider yourself, the service provider also knows who you are. The processing of your personal data by the service provider is then the responsibility of the service provider in accordance with its own privacy policy. The service provider only informs us how our respective website is used (no information about you personally).

We do not sell your personal data and only disclose it to third parties (e.g. IT providers) within the scope of our business activities and the purposes set out in Section 3 (the recipients). These recipients are partly domestic but may be located anywhere in the world. If a recipient is located in a country without adequate statutory data protection, we contractually obligate the recipient to comply with applicable data protection law, unless it is already subject to a legally recognized framework ensuring data protection.

We process and store your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil our contractual and legal obligations or otherwise to achieve the purposes pursued by the processing, i.e. for example for the duration of the entire business relationship (from initiation, performance, to termination of a contract) and beyond, in accordance with statutory retention and documentation obligations. It is possible that personal data will be retained for as long as claims can be asserted against our company, and insofar as we are otherwise legally obliged to do so or legitimate business interests require it (e.g. for evidentiary and documentation purposes). Operational data (e.g. system logs) is generally subject to shorter retention periods of twelve months or less.

We take appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access and misuse.

As part of our business relationship, you must provide the personal data that is required for entering into and carrying out a business relationship and fulfilling the associated contractual obligations (you generally have no statutory obligation to provide us with data). Without this data, we will generally be unable to conclude or perform a contract with you (or the entity or person you represent). The website also cannot be used if certain information required to ensure data transmission (such as your IP address) is not disclosed.

Under the data protection law applicable to you, you have the right to access, rectification, and erasure of your personal data, the right to restrict the processing of your data, and otherwise to object to our processing of your data, as well as the right to receive certain personal data for transfer to another party (so-called data portability). Please note that we reserve the right to invoke the statutory restrictions available to us, for example where we are obliged to retain or process certain data, where we have an overriding interest in doing so (insofar as we may rely on this), or where we need such data to assert claims.

We have already informed you of the possibility of withdrawing your consent in Section 3. Please note that exercising these rights may conflict with contractual arrangements and may have consequences such as early termination of a contract or cost implications. In such cases, we will inform you in advance, unless this has already been contractually agreed.

Exercising such rights generally requires you to clearly prove your identity (e.g. by means of a copy of an identity document, where your identity cannot otherwise be clearly established or verified). To exercise your rights, you can contact us at the address given in Section 1.

Every data subject also has the right to assert their claims in court or to lodge 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).

We may amend this privacy policy at any time without prior notice. The version published on our website at any given time shall apply.
