Cyltronic may process and link personal data in order to try to learn more about you and, in particular, to evaluate certain essential personal aspects (such as job, economic circumstances, personal interests, place of residence, family situation, behavioural patterns) so that Cyltronic may be able to better predict, for example, which products and services you might be interested in in in order to provide you with individualized offers and suggestions.

4 Storage

5 Consent, legal basis, withdrawal and data protection rights

If this is required under applicable data protection regulations, we request your consent to process your personal data, which then forms the legal basis for processing. However, you hereby acknowledge that the legal basis for processing — depending on the circumstances and applicable data protection law — may also lie in the performance of the contract, in the implementation of contractual or pre-contractual measures or in the protection of legitimate interests, provided that the applicable data protection regulations require such a legal basis at all. You can withdraw any consent at any time, but without affecting the lawfulness of the processing that has taken place on the basis of the consent given up to the time of withdrawal. In addition, depending on the circumstances and applicable data protection law, you have in particular

• the right to disclose or access the personal data concerned;
• the right to correct, delete or restrict the processing of personal data;
• the right to object to processing;
• the right to lodge an appeal with a competent supervisory authority; and
• the right to data transmission/portability (i.e. release of personal data in a common electronic format).

The above rights have no effect on personal data that is processed for you as part of an ongoing contractual relationship or service provision or that we must or may retain for legal reasons.

With regard to revocation, exercise of your other data protection rights and further questions, suggestions and comments on the subject of data protection, please contact the person responsible for data protection using the contact details provided above.

6 Data transmission

Cyltronic will not share your personal data with third parties unless

• this is expressly stated differently in this privacy statement (see below in this paragraph 6);
• this is necessary to protect your interests;
• this is necessary to fulfill, open, manage, execute or maintain your business relationship with Cyltronic;
• You have given your consent beforehand.

In addition, Cyltronic will appoint contract processors for hosting, maintenance, administration, storage and other services (such as backup, cloud storage, CRM, other IT services, HR services, (email) marketing services, financial services such as accounting and escrow), which will process personal data to the extent necessary to fulfill such purposes mentioned above or similar.

In this context, some of your personal data may be stored or processed outside Switzerland and the European Union (or the EEA), even in countries that do not have a comparably strict level of data protection (such as in the USA in particular). If Cyltronic therefore stores or transmits personal data outside Switzerland or the European Union (or the EEA), Cyltronic will take all reasonable steps required by applicable and applicable data protection law to ensure that your personal data is still processed securely and in accordance with this privacy policy. In this case, Cyltronic generally ensures appropriate data protection by binding standard data protection clauses, which the competent supervisory authority has approved in advance, with the recipient of the personal data in such an “uncertain” third country.
