According to these regulations, business communications, contracts concluded and accounting records must be kept for up to 10 years. If we no longer need this data to perform the services for you, the data will be blocked. This means that the data may then only be used for accounting and tax purposes.

      D. For further information, please contact

      1. Right of access, rectification, cancellation and restriction of processing; right to data transferability

      You have the right to request information about the personal data that we store about you. In addition, you have the right to correct incorrect data and to have your personal data deleted, insofar as this does not conflict with any legal obligation to retain data or an event of authorisation which allows us to process the data.

      You also have the right to reclaim from us the data that you have provided to us (right of data portability). Upon request, we will also pass the data on to a third party of your choice. You have the right to receive the data in a common file format.

      You can contact us for the above-mentioned purposes by e-mail at welcome@ibiszurich.ch We may, at our sole discretion, require proof of identity to process your applications. 

      16 Data security Datensicherheit

      We use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data stored with us against manipulation, partial or complete loss and against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.

      You should always treat your access data confidentially and close the browser window when you have finished communicating with us, especially when you share your computer with others.

      We also take internal data protection very seriously. Our employees and the service companies commissioned by us have been obliged by us to maintain confidentiality and to comply with data protection regulations.

      1. Note on data transmission to the USA 

      For reasons of completeness, we would like to point out to users residing or domiciled in Switzerland that monitoring measures are in place in the USA by US authorities, which generally allow the storage of all personal data of all persons whose data was transmitted from Switzerland to the USA. This is done without differentiation, restriction or exception on the basis of the objective pursued and without an objective criterion which makes it possible to limit the access of the US authorities to the data and their subsequent use to very specific, strictly limited purposes which can justify the intervention associated with both access to these data and their use. Furthermore, we would like to point out that there are no legal remedies available in the USA for the data subjects from Switzerland which would allow them to gain access to the data concerning them and to obtain their correction or deletion, or that there is no effective legal protection against general access rights of US authorities. We explicitly point out this legal and factual situation to the person concerned in order to make an appropriately informed decision to consent to the use of his data.

      Users residing in an EU Member State are advised that the US does not have an adequate level of data protection from the point of view of the European Union, partly because of the issues mentioned in this section. If we have explained in this privacy policy that recipients of data (such as Google) are based in the USA, we will ensure that your data is protected by our partners at an appropriate level, either by contractual arrangements with these companies or by ensuring that these companies are certified under the EU or Swiss-US privacy label.

      1. Right of appeal to a data protection supervisory authority

      You have the right to complain at any time to a data protection supervisory authority.
