Privacy Policy
Data We Collect
Transparent handling of personal data is very important to us. This privacy policy informs you about which personal data we collect, for what purpose, and to whom we disclose this information. We regularly review and update this privacy policy to ensure the highest level of transparency.
General Personal Data
We process your general personal data. Personal data refers to any type of information relating to an identifiable natural person. A natural person is identifiable if conclusions about their identity can be drawn from the available information.
Example: Your name, IP address, and home address are considered personal data.
Provided Data
You often provide us with your personal data yourself. Whenever you enter and submit your personal data to us, it is considered provided to us. While providing data is generally voluntary, it is sometimes required to use our services.
Example: You enter your data in a contact form or sign up for a newsletter.
Collected Data
When you use our services, we sometimes collect your data without the need for your active participation. This usually includes data about your device and user behavior.
Example: We collect data about the operating system of the device you used to access our website.
Marketing
We use the data you have provided and that we have collected for marketing and advertising purposes. Our goal is to understand visitor behavior to make targeted marketing decisions and deliver targeted advertising.
Example: We analyze how many visitors are most interested in which of our offerings.
Product Development
We strive to continually improve our offerings. For this purpose, we use your personal data to develop and enhance our products and services.
Example: We collect data on visitor behavior on the website to constantly improve user-friendliness.
Data Sharing
We share your personal data with companies that can decide independently how to use the data. This usually occurs to comply with legal requirements, when a debt is transferred to a collection agency, or to detect fraudulent activities.
Example: A legal requirement obliges us to share your data with an authority.
Financial Data
To use our services, you may need to provide your financial data. We use this information to process transactions.
Example: You enter your credit card details in our online shop.
Worldwide
We collaborate with providers from around the world to process your personal data. This allows us to benefit from global offerings and access the best and most reliable services. The country to which data is exported may not have the same data protection standards as Switzerland.
Example: We use the services of WooCommerce, which is based in the USA.

6.2 Under What Conditions Do We Process Your Data?

If we are exceptionally unable to adhere to these principles, data processing may still be lawful if there is a justification. Possible justifications include:

- The performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures;
- Our legitimate interests, provided your interests do not override them.

6.4 In What Cases Can We Share Your Data with Third Parties?
a. Principle
We may need to use the services of third parties or affiliated companies and commission them to process your data (so-called processors). Categories of recipients include:
- Accounting, fiduciary, and auditing companies;
- Consulting companies (legal advice, taxes, etc.);
- IT service providers (web hosting, support, cloud services, website design, etc.);
- Payment service providers;
- Providers of tracking, conversion, and advertising services.
We ensure these third parties and our affiliated companies comply with data protection requirements and treat your personal data confidentially. In some cases, we may also be required to disclose your personal data to authorities.
b. Sharing with Partners and Cooperative Companies
We sometimes collaborate with different companies and partners that display their offers on our website. It is evident to you when it is a third-party offer (marked as "advertisement").
If you take advantage of such an offer, we will transmit your personal data to the respective partner or cooperative company (e.g., name, function, communication, etc.) whose offer you wish to access. These partners and cooperative companies are independently responsible for the personal data they receive. After the data is transmitted, the respective partner's privacy policy applies.
c. Visiting Our Social Media Channels
Our website includes links to our social media channels, which are clearly marked (typically with appropriate icons). When you click on these icons, you're redirected to our social media channels.
In this case, social media providers become aware that you are accessing their platform from our website. They may use the data collected for their own purposes. Please note that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by the operators.
d. International Data Transfer
In the course of order processing, your personal data may be transmitted to companies abroad. These companies are required to protect data to the same extent as we are. The transfer can occur worldwide.
If the level of data protection does not match that of Switzerland, we conduct a preliminary risk assessment and contractually ensure the same protection as in Switzerland is guaranteed (e.g., using the new EU Commission standard contractual clauses or other legally required measures). If our risk assessment is negative, we implement additional technical measures to protect your data.
6.5 How Long Do We Retain Your Data?
We store personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the data was collected.
Data collected during your visit to our website is retained for twelve months. An exception applies to analysis and tracking data, which may be kept longer.
We retain contract data for a longer period due to legal obligations. Specifically, we must keep business communications, concluded contracts, and accounting documents for up to 10 years. If we no longer need such data from you to provide services, the data will be locked and used only for accounting and tax purposes.
6.6 How Do We Protect Your Data?
We will securely store your data and take all reasonable measures to protect it from loss, access, misuse, or alteration.
Our contractual partners and employees who have access to your data are obligated to comply with data protection regulations. In some cases, it may be necessary to forward your inquiries to affiliated companies. Even in these cases, your data will be treated confidentially.
On our website, we use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology in conjunction with the highest encryption level supported by your browser.
6.8 What Rights Do You Have?
a. Right to Access
You can request information about the data we have stored about you at any time. Please send your request along with proof of identity to support@digitalify.app.
You also have the right to receive your data in a commonly used format if we process your data automatically, and if:
- You have consented to the processing of this data; or
- You have disclosed data related to the conclusion or execution of a contract.
We may restrict or deny access or data release if it conflicts with our legal obligations, legitimate own or public interests, or the interests of a third party.
The processing of your request is subject to the legal processing period of 30 days. However, we may extend this period due to high request volumes, legal or technical reasons, or if we need further information from you. You will be notified of the extension in advance, at least in text form.
b. Deletion and Correction
You can request the deletion or correction of your data at any time. We can deny the request if legal provisions require us to retain the data longer or unchanged, or if there is a justification against your request.
Please note that exercising your rights may conflict with contractual agreements and have corresponding effects on contract execution (e.g., early termination or additional costs).
c. Legal Recourse
If you are affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to enforce your rights through the courts or to file a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch.
