For data protection requests, please contact us in writing at info@bmponline.ch.
2. Scope and Applicable Law
This Privacy Policy applies to the use of www.bmponline.ch, our services, and communication with us.
We process personal data in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nFADP). Where required by law, we obtain consent before processing.
3. What Data We Process
Depending on the interaction, we may process contact data (name, email, phone, company), communication content, technical data (IP address, browser, device, log data), and contract-related information.
If you provide personal data about other persons, please ensure you are authorized to do so and that the information is accurate.
4. Contact Form Data
When you submit our contact or support form, we collect the data you enter to process and answer your request. You must explicitly consent to this processing by ticking the consent checkbox on the form.
Form data is stored in our backend database hosted on AWS (Amazon Web Services) in the EU region Frankfurt, Germany. It is also sent by email to our admin team so we can respond to your enquiry.
Data is not shared with, sold to, or transferred to any third-party provider. Only our internal team has access.
Form submissions are retained for 30 days and then deleted, unless a longer retention period is required by law or contract.
5. Purposes of Processing
We process personal data to provide and improve our services, communicate with you, respond to inquiries, perform contracts, ensure IT security, and comply with legal obligations.
If we use data for marketing communications, you may opt out at any time.
6. Recipients and Processors
We do not sell, share, or transfer personal data to any third-party companies for their own purposes.
Frontend hosting is provided by SiteGround. Backend and database hosting is provided by Hostinger, with the database stored on AWS infrastructure in Frankfurt, Germany (EU).
Data may be disclosed to authorities or courts only where we are legally required to do so.
7. International Data Transfers
Contact form data is stored on servers within the European Union (AWS Frankfurt, Germany), which provides an adequate level of data protection. No data is transferred outside the EU/EEA for form submission processing.
8. Retention
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the stated purposes, legal obligations, and legitimate documentation needs.
Retention periods may differ by data category. Contact form backend storage is 30 days unless longer storage is required by law or contract.
9. Data Security
We apply appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including access controls, encryption in transit (HTTPS), backups, and internal confidentiality measures.
No transmission or storage method is completely risk-free, but we continuously review and improve our safeguards.
10. Your Rights
Under applicable law, you may request information about your data, correction, deletion, restriction, objection to processing, and data portability where applicable.
You may also lodge a complaint with the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
