3. General Principles
3.1 What Data Do We Collect and Where Do We Get It From?
We primarily process personal data that you provide to us or that we collect when operating our website. In some cases, we may receive personal data from third parties. These may include:
- Personal details (name, address, date of birth, etc.)
- Contact information (mobile number, email address, etc.)
- Financial data (e.g., bank account information)
- Online identifiers (e.g., cookie ID, IP addresses)
- Location and traffic data
3.2 Under What Conditions Do We Process Your Data?
We treat your data confidentially and process it only for the purposes defined in this privacy policy. We ensure transparent and proportionate data processing.
In exceptional cases where these principles cannot be adhered to, data processing may still be lawful if a justification applies. Such grounds include:
- Your consent
- The performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures
- Our legitimate interests, provided they do not override your own interests
3.3 How Can You Withdraw Your Consent?
If you have given us consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your data within the scope of this consent unless another legal basis applies.
You can withdraw your consent at any time by sending an email to the address provided in the legal notice. Previous data processing activities remain unaffected.
3.4 When Can We Share Your Data With Third Parties?
a. General
We may rely on third-party services or affiliated companies to process your data (so-called data processors). Categories of such recipients include:
- Accounting, fiduciary, and auditing firms
- Consulting firms (legal, tax, etc.)
- IT service providers (hosting, cloud services, web development, etc.)
- Payment providers
- Providers of tracking, conversion, and advertising services
We ensure that these third parties and our affiliates comply with data protection requirements and treat your personal data confidentially.
We may also be legally required to disclose your data to authorities.
b. Social Media Channels
Our website may contain links to our social media channels, identifiable via icons. By clicking these, you are redirected to the respective platforms.
The social media providers may learn that you accessed their service from our website and use this data for their own purposes. We do not receive information about the data they collect or how they use it.
c. International Data Transfers
In the course of data processing, your personal data may be transferred to companies located outside Switzerland and the EU/EEA. This may include countries such as the United States or New Zealand, depending on the services used.
Some of these countries – especially the United States – do not offer a level of data protection equivalent to that of Switzerland. In such cases, there is a risk that authorities may access your data without sufficient legal remedies being available to you as a data subject.
Before any transfer takes place, we conduct a risk assessment and implement appropriate safeguards to ensure an adequate level of data protection. These safeguards include, in particular, standard contractual clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission or other legally required measures. Where necessary, we also apply additional technical and organizational measures, such as encryption or pseudonymization, to further protect your data.
You can access the EU Standard Contractual Clauses here:
https://commission.europa.eu
Upon request, we are happy to provide further information or a copy of the applicable safeguards.
3.5 How Long Do We Store Your Data?
We store personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected.
Data collected during your website visit is stored for twelve months. An exception applies to analytics and tracking data, which may be stored longer.
Contract-related data may be retained for up to 10 years due to legal obligations (e.g., commercial correspondence, contracts, invoices). Such data is restricted for accounting and tax purposes once no longer needed.
3.6 How Do We Protect Your Data?
We take appropriate measures to securely store your data and protect it from loss, unauthorized access, misuse, or alteration.
Our employees and contractors are bound by data protection laws. Where necessary, your inquiries may be forwarded to affiliated companies, who will also treat your data confidentially.
We use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption on our website with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser.
3.7 Your Rights
a. Right of Access
You can request information about the personal data we hold about you. Please send your request along with proof of identity to: info@niten.ch
You also have the right to receive your data in a common format if:

We may limit or deny access if required by law or to protect the rights of third parties.
Requests will be processed within 30 days. If necessary (e.g., high volume, technical/legal issues), this deadline may be extended, in which case you will be informed in writing.
b. Right to Erasure and Rectification
You may request correction or deletion of your data at any time. We may deny such requests if legal retention requirements or overriding interests apply.
Please note that exercising these rights may conflict with contractual obligations (e.g., early termination or additional costs).
c. Legal Remedies
If you are affected by our processing of personal data, you may seek legal recourse or file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in Switzerland:
Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC)
