Data protection

Data protection declaration

General / Introduction

Based on Article 13 of the Swiss Federal Constitution and the Federal Data Protection Regulations (Data Protection Act, DSG), every person is entitled to protection of his or her privacy as well as protection against misuse of his or her personal data. brickit AG takes the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.

In cooperation with our hosting providers, we strive to protect the databases as much as possible against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or corruption.

We point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. during communication by e-mail) may have security gaps. A seamless protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.

By using this website, you agree to the collection, processing and use of data in accordance with the following description. This website can generally be visited without registration. Data such as accessed pages or names of accessed files, date and time are stored on the server for statistical purposes, without this data being directly related to you. Insofar as personal data (for example name, address or e-mail addresses) are collected on our pages, this is, as far as possible, always on a voluntary basis. This data will not be shared with third parties without your express consent.

Processing of personal data

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable person. A data subject is a person through whom personal data are processed. The processing shall include any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular the storage, disclosure, procurement, erasure, storage, alteration, destruction and use of personal data.

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law. If and to the extent that the EU GDPR is applicable, we also process personal data on the following legal bases in connection with Art. 6 (1) GDPR:

  • lit. a) Processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.
  • lit. b) Processing of personal data for the performance of a contract with the person concerned as well as for the implementation of corresponding pre-contractual measures.
  • (c) Processing of personal data in order to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable EU law or under the applicable law of a country where the GDPR is fully or partially applicable.
  • lit. d) Processing of personal data for the protection of vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
  • lit. f) Processing of personal data to safeguard the legitimate interests of us or third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms and rights and interests of the data subject predominate. Legitimate interests include in particular our business interest in being able to provide our website, information security, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with Swiss law.

We process personal data for the duration necessary for the respective purpose or purposes. For longer-term storage obligations due to legal and other obligations to which we are subject, we restrict the processing accordingly.
