Privacy Policy

Swiss Web Development Kiefer ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle it — in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (DSG/nDSG) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2. What Data We Collect

Contact Form

When you submit our contact form, we collect the following information:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Your company name (optional)
• Your message

This data is used solely to respond to your inquiry and is not shared with third parties or used for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

Server Log Files

Our hosting provider automatically collects standard log data when you visit our website, including your IP address, browser type, referring page, and date/time of access. This data is used for technical operation and security purposes only and is not linked to any personal identity.

Cookies

This website uses only technically necessary cookies required for basic functionality. We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics that collect personally identifiable information.

3. Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data on the following legal bases:

• Contract performance: to respond to your inquiry and deliver our services.
• Legitimate interest: for the secure operation of this website.
• Consent: where you have explicitly agreed, e.g. to receive project updates.

4. Data Retention

We retain your contact form submissions for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and fulfil any resulting contractual obligations — and no longer than required by applicable law. Server log files are retained for a maximum of 30 days unless required for security investigations.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share data with trusted service providers (e.g. hosting infrastructure) who act as data processors on our behalf and are contractually bound to process data only on our instructions.

6. Your Rights

Under applicable Swiss and EU data protection law, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data (where legally permitted)
• Object to or restrict processing of your data
• Request data portability
• Withdraw consent at any time (without affecting prior lawful processing)

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@swisswebdev.ch. We will respond within 30 days.

7. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure — including encrypted connections (HTTPS) and access controls.

8. Third-Party Services

This website is hosted on Vercel. Their privacy policy applies to infrastructure-level data processing. We do not integrate Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or other behavioural tracking services.
