The GDPR defines personal data as “data/information relating to identified or identifiable natural persons”. Online identification characteristics such as IP addresses are considered personal data, unless such were rendered anonymous.
We collect, process and use your personal data for the following purposes:
Whenever you visit our website, our servers will temporarily store the following data in a protocol file, the so-called server logfiles:
· name and URL of the retrieved data and contents of the request (concrete page);
· website from which the access is made (Referrer URL);
· browser type used and the operating system of your computer as well as the name of your
· internet access provider;
· access status / HTTP status code;
· respective data quantity transmitted.
The legitimate interest applies as basis for the temporary storage of your personal data and the log files. The legitimate interest exists to:
· enable the use of our website (establishment of the connection);
· permanently ensure the system security and stability;
· further improve our offer and our internet presentation;
· collect statistical data;
· provide information necessary for a prosecution to the prosecution authorities, in case of an incident.
Procivis provides mobile apps explicitly for testing and demo purposes to a limited audience via App Stores of third-party providers. The Users are made aware orally or via message (e.g., email) before the distribution of the application to use test data when using the mobile apps.
You may contact us by sending an email to the address hyperlinked to contact buttons on our website. In such case, any information you provide us will be processed for the purpose of handling your inquiry.
If you wish to contact us, the following information shall be required; all other information is voluntary:
· first name
· last name
· email address
Mandatory information is transmitted as a result of the standard structure of email addresses. If you provide more data on a voluntary basis, you will facilitate the handling of your inquiry and allow us to give you more detailed information.
Please do not disclose any information that you do not wish us to receive. Therefore, please refrain from sending any sensitive data by email.
The basis for processing your personal data is our legitimate interest in handling your inquiry. If you contact us for the purpose of the performance of a contract to which you are a party or in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract that will serve as an additional basis for the processing of your personal data.
You may object to this data processing, at any time. Please send your objection to the following email address: legal@procivis.ch. Your inquiry will no longer be handled in such case.
Your personal data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for achieving the purpose of its collection. The personal data you transmitted will be processed, even beyond the end of the cooperation, for internal purposes (e.g., analysis, follow-up and documentation) and for any potential further contact (for further customer service, follow-up, for obtaining a rating, etc.). In addition, we allow us to store notes explicitly stating that contacting is undesired, in order to prevent it.
We process inventory and contract data of our customers, interested parties and contract partners for the purpose of fulfilling our contractual and pre-contractual obligations. This includes generally the inventory and master data (e.g. name, address, etc.), the contact data (e.g. email address, phone number, etc.). The data processed in this process, the type, scope and purpose and necessity of their processing depend on the underlying contractual relationship.
Basis for the processing of your personal data is the performance of a contract to which you are a party or in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
If we store your personal data based on a contractual relationship, such data will remain stored for as long as the contractual relationship applies and not longer than to the end of any limitation periods applicable to our potential claims or of the statutory or contractual retention periods.
We keep your personal data in confidence and will only disclose them after you have given your explicit consent, if we are obliged by law or for as long as it is necessary to enforce claims under the contractual relationship. Furthermore, we will disclose your personal data to third parties insofar as that is necessary or appropriate for using the website or for rendering any services requested by you or if a processing relationship applies. The legal provisions on the disclosure of personal data to third parties will naturally be complied with.
If we engage processors to render our services, we take appropriate legal precautions and technical or organizational measures to ensure the protection of your personal data pursuant to the applicable legal provisions. If the data protection level in any country in which the data is being processed fails to comply with the applicable data protection provisions, we ensure in contracts that the protection of your personal data is in line with that applicable in Switzerland or the European Economic Area (EEA), at any time.
We process and store your personal data only for as long as that is necessary for fulfilling our contractual and legal obligations or for other purposes pursued by the processing and beyond that pursuant to the statutory retention periods. As soon as your personal data are no longer necessary for the above-mentioned purposes or if a prescribed retention period expires, your personal data will generally be erased or blocked, as far as possible.
