conceptual and legal

PRIVACY­POLICY

With this privacy policy, we inform you about which personal data we process in connection with our activities and operations, including our jvmimpact.ch website. We inform you in particular for what purpose, how, and where we process which personal data. We also inform you about the rights of individuals whose data we process.

For individual or additional activities and operations, further privacy policies and other legal documents such as General Terms and Conditions (GTC), terms of use, or terms of participation may apply.

We are subject to Swiss data protection law and, where applicable, foreign data protection law, such as that of the European Union (EU) with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The European Commission recognizes that Swiss data protection law ensures an adequate level of data protection.

1. CONTACT ADDRESSES

Responsibility for the processing of personal data: 

Jung von Matt IMPACT AG
Weberstrasse 7
8004 Zürich

contact@jvmimpact.ch

We point out if there are other responsible parties for the processing of personal data in individual cases.

2. TERMS AND LEGAL BASES

 

2.1 Terms

Personal data are all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. A data subject is a person whose personal data we process.

Processing encompasses any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, for example, querying, comparing, adapting, archiving, storing, reading out, disclosing, procuring, recording, collecting, deleting, revealing, ordering, organizing, storing, modifying, disseminating, linking, destroying, and using personal data.

The European Economic Area (EEA) comprises the Member States of the European Union (EU) as well as the Principality of Liechtenstein, Iceland, and Norway. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) refers to the processing of personal data as the processing of personal data.

 

2.2 Legal Bases

We process personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection law, in particular the Federal Act on Data Protection (Data Protection Act, FADP) and the Ordinance on Data Protection (Data Protection Ordinance, DPO).

We process – insofar as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – personal data based on at least one of the following legal bases:

  • Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data for the performance of a contract with the data subject and for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.
  • Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to safeguard the legitimate interests of us or third parties, provided that the fundamental freedoms and rights and interests of the data subject do not override them. Legitimate interests include, in particular, our interest in being able to carry out our activities and operations permanently, user-friendly, securely, and reliably and to communicate about them, ensuring information security, protection against misuse, enforcement of our own legal claims, and compliance with Swiss law.
  • Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject under applicable law of Member States in the European Economic Area (EEA).
  • Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.
  • Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR for the processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.
  • Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR for the necessary processing of personal data to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.

3. TYPE, SCOPE AND PURPOSE

We process personal data that is necessary to carry out our activities and operations permanently, user-friendly, securely, and reliably. Such personal data may include, in particular, categories of inventory and contact data, browser and device data, content data, meta or edge data and usage data, location data, sales data, and contract and payment data.

We process personal data for the duration that is necessary for the respective purpose(s) or as required by law. Personal data whose processing is no longer necessary will be anonymized or deleted.

We may have personal data processed by third parties. We may process personal data jointly with third parties or transmit it to third parties. Such third parties are, in particular, specialized providers whose services we use. We also ensure data protection with such third parties.

We process personal data only with the consent of the data subject, unless the processing is permissible for other legal reasons. Processing without consent may be permissible, for example, for the fulfillment of a contract with the data subject and for corresponding pre-contractual measures, to protect our overriding legitimate interests, because the processing is evident from the circumstances, or after prior information.

In this context, we process, in particular, information that a data subject voluntarily transmits to us when contacting us – for example, by mail, email, instant messaging, contact form, social media, or telephone – or when registering for a user account. We can store such information, for example, in an address book, in a Customer Relationship Management system (CRM system), or with comparable tools. If we receive data about other persons, the transmitting persons are obliged to ensure data protection towards these persons and to ensure the accuracy of this personal data.

We also process personal data that we receive from third parties, obtain from publicly accessible sources, or collect in the course of our activities and operations, provided and to the extent that such processing is permissible for legal reasons. 

4. APPLICATIONS

We process personal data about applicants insofar as it is necessary for assessing suitability for an employment relationship or for the subsequent execution of an employment contract. The required personal data results in particular from the requested information, for example in the context of a job advertisement. We also process personal data that applicants voluntarily provide or publish, particularly as part of cover letters, CVs, and other application documents, as well as online profiles. 

We process personal data about applicants – provided and insofar as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – in particular according to Art. 9 Abs. 2 lit. b DSGVO.

We can enable applicants to store their data in our talent pool so that they can be considered for future open positions. We can also use such information to maintain contact and inform about news. If we assume that an applicant is suitable for an open position based on the information provided, we can inform the person accordingly. 

We use third-party services to advertise positions through e-recruitment and to enable and manage applications. 

5. PERSONAL DATA ABROAD

We generally process personal data in Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA). However, we can also export or transmit personal data to other countries, particularly to process it there or have it processed.

We can export personal data to all countries and territories on Earth as well as elsewhere in the Universe, provided that the local law, according to the Decision of the Swiss Federal Council, ensures adequate data protection and – insofar as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – according to the Decision of the European Commission, ensures adequate data protection.

We can transmit personal data to countries whose law does not ensure adequate data protection, provided that data protection is ensured for other reasons, in particular on the basis of standard data protection clauses or other suitable guarantees. Exceptionally, we can export personal data to countries without adequate or suitable data protection if the special data protection requirements are met, for example, the explicit consent of the data subjects or a direct connection with the conclusion or processing of a contract. We are happy to provide data subjects with information about any guarantees upon request or provide a copy of any guarantees. 

6. RIGHTS OF DATA SUBJECTS

 

6.1 Data Protection Claims

We grant data subjects all claims according to applicable data protection law. Data subjects have the following rights in particular:

  • Information: Data subjects can request information on whether we process personal data about them, and if so, what personal data it is. Data subjects also receive the information necessary to assert their data protection claims and ensure transparency. This includes the processed personal data as such, but also, among other things, information on the purpose of processing, the duration of storage, any disclosure or export of data to other countries, and the origin of the personal data.
  • Rectification and Restriction: Data subjects can rectify inaccurate personal data, complete incomplete data, and have the processing of their data restricted.
  • Erasure and Objection: Data subjects can have personal data erased ("right to be forgotten") and object to the processing of their data with effect for the future.
  • Data Disclosure and Data Transfer: Data subjects can request the disclosure of personal data or the transfer of their data to another controller.

We may postpone, restrict, or refuse the exercise of data subjects' rights within the legally permissible framework. We may inform data subjects of any conditions that must be met for the exercise of their data protection claims. For example, we may wholly or partially refuse access to information with reference to business secrets or the protection of other persons. For example, we may also wholly or partially refuse the erasure of personal data with reference to statutory retention obligations.

We may exceptionally charge costs for the exercise of rights. We inform data subjects in advance about any costs.

We are obliged to identify data subjects who request information or assert other rights with appropriate measures. Data subjects are obliged to cooperate.

 

6.2 Right to Lodge a Complaint

Data subjects have the right to enforce their data protection claims through legal action or to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

The data protection supervisory authority for private controllers and federal bodies in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).

Data subjects have – insofar as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – the right to lodge a complaint with a competent European data protection supervisory authority.

7. DATA SECURITY

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure data security commensurate with the respective risk. However, we cannot guarantee absolute data security.

Access to our website is via transport encryption (SSL / TLS, in particular with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure, abbreviated HTTPS). Most browsers indicate transport encryption with a padlock in the address bar.

Our digital communication – like all digital communication in general – is subject to mass surveillance without cause or suspicion, as well as other surveillance by security authorities in Switzerland, the rest of Europe, the United States of America (USA), and other states. We cannot directly influence the corresponding processing of personal data by intelligence services, police departments, and other security authorities. 

8. USE OF THE WEBSITE

 

8.1 Cookies

We may use cookies. Cookies – both our own cookies (first-party cookies) and cookies from third parties whose services we use (third-party cookies) – are data stored in the browser. Such stored data does not have to be limited to traditional text-form cookies.

Cookies can be stored temporarily in the browser as "session cookies" or for a specific period as so-called permanent cookies. "Session cookies" are automatically deleted when the browser is closed. Permanent cookies have a specific storage duration. Cookies enable, in particular, a browser to be recognized on the next visit to our website and thereby, for example, to measure the reach of our website. Permanent cookies can also be used, for example, for online marketing.

Cookies can be completely or partially deactivated and deleted in the browser settings at any time. Without cookies, our website may no longer be fully available. We actively request – at least if and to the extent necessary – explicit consent to the use of cookies.

For cookies used for success and reach measurement or for advertising, a general objection ("opt-out") is possible for numerous services via AdChoices (Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada), the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), YourAd-Choices (Digital Advertising Alliance) or Your Online Choices (European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance, EDAA).

 

8.2 Server Log Files

For each access to our website, we may collect the following information, provided it is transmitted by your browser to our server infrastructure or can be determined by our web server: date and time including time zone, Internet Protocol (IP) address, access status (HTTP status code), operating system including user interface and version, browser including language and version, individual sub-page of our website accessed including the amount of data transferred, last accessed website in the same browser window (referrer).

We store such information, which may also constitute personal data, in server log files. This information is necessary to permanently, user-friendly, and reliably provide our website, and to ensure data security and thus, in particular, the protection of personal data – also by third parties or with the help of third parties.

 

8.3 Tracking Pixels

We may use tracking pixels on our website. Tracking pixels are also referred to as web beacons. Tracking pixels – including those from third parties whose services we use – are small, usually invisible images that are automatically retrieved when you visit our website. Tracking pixels can collect the same information as in server log files.

9. NOTIFICATIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS

We send notifications and communications via email and other communication channels such as instant messaging or SMS.

 

9.1 Success and Reach Measurement

Notifications and communications may contain web links or tracking pixels that record whether an individual message has been opened and which web links have been clicked. Such web links and tracking pixels can also record the use of notifications and communications on a personal basis. We need this statistical recording of usage for success and reach measurement to be able to send notifications and communications effectively and user-friendly, as well as permanently, securely, and reliably, based on the needs and reading habits of the recipients.

 

9.2 Consent and Objection

You must generally expressly consent to the use of your email address and other contact addresses, unless the use is permissible for other legal reasons. For any consent, we use the "Double Opt-in" procedure where possible, meaning you receive an email with a web link that you must click to confirm, so that no misuse by unauthorized third parties can occur. We can log such consents, including Internet Protocol (IP) address, date, and time, for evidentiary and security reasons.

You can generally object to receiving notifications and communications such as newsletters at any time. With such an objection, you can simultaneously object to the statistical recording of usage for success and reach measurement. Necessary notifications and communications in connection with our activities and operations remain reserved.

 

9.3 Service Providers for Notifications and Communications

We send notifications and communications with the help of specialized service providers.

10. SOCIAL MEDIA

We are present on social media platforms and other online platforms in order to communicate with interested persons and to inform about our activities and operations. In connection with such platforms, personal data may also be processed outside Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA).

The General Terms and Conditions (GTC) and Terms of Use, as well as privacy policies and other provisions of the individual operators of such platforms, also apply. These provisions inform, in particular, about the rights of data subjects directly vis-à-vis the respective platform, which includes, for example, the right to information.

For our social media presence on Facebook, including the so-called Page Insights, we are – insofar as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is applicable – jointly responsible with Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Ireland). Meta Platforms Ireland Limited is part of the Meta companies (including in the USA). Page Insights provide information on how visitors interact with our Facebook presence. We use Page Insights to be able to provide our social media presence on Facebook effectively and user-friendly.

Further information on the nature, scope and purpose of data processing, information on the rights of data subjects, as well as Facebook's contact details and Facebook's data protection officer can be found in Facebook's Privacy Policy. We have concluded the so-called "Controller Addendum" with Facebook and have thereby agreed, in particular, that Facebook is responsible for ensuring the rights of data subjects. For the so-called Page Insights, the corresponding information can be found on the page "Information on Page Insights" including "Information on Page Insights Data". 

11. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

We use services from specialized third parties to be able to carry out our activities and operations permanently, user-friendly, securely, and reliably. With such services, we can, among other things, embed functions and content into our website. When embedding such content, the services used collect at least temporarily the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of users for technically compelling reasons.

For necessary security-relevant, statistical, and technical purposes, third parties whose services we use may process data related to our activities and operations in an aggregated, anonymized, or pseudonymized form. This includes, for example, performance or usage data to be able to offer the respective service.

We use in particular: 

 

11.1 Digital Infrastructure

We use services from specialized third parties to be able to utilize the necessary digital infrastructure in connection with our activities and operations. This includes, for example, hosting and storage services from selected providers.

 

11.2 Contact Options

We use services from selected providers to be able to communicate better with third parties such as potential and existing customers. 

We use in particular:

 

11.3 Appointment Scheduling

We use services from specialized third parties to be able to schedule appointments online, for example for meetings. In addition to this privacy policy, any directly visible terms and conditions of the services used, such as terms of use or privacy policies, also apply.

 

11.4 Social Media Functions and Social Media Content

We use services and plugins from third parties to embed functions and content from social media platforms and to enable sharing of content on social media platforms and through other channels.

We use in particular:

 

11.5 Digital Audio and Video Content

We use services from specialized third parties to enable the direct playback of digital audio and video content such as music or podcasts.

We use in particular:

 

11.6 Advertising

We use the possibility to specifically display advertising for our activities and operations with third parties such as social media platforms and search engines.

With such advertising, we particularly want to reach people who are already interested in our activities and operations or who might be interested in them (Remarketing and Targeting). For this purpose, we may transmit corresponding – possibly also personal – data to third parties who enable such advertising. We can also determine whether our advertising is successful, i.e., in particular, whether it leads to visits to our website (Conversion Tracking).

Third parties with whom we advertise and where you are logged in as a user may be able to associate the use of our online offering with your profile there.

We use in particular:

12. SUCCESS AND REACH MEASUREMENT

We try to determine how our online offering is used. In this context, for example, we can measure the success and reach of our activities and operations, as well as the impact of third-party links to our website. We can also, for example, test and compare how different parts or versions of our online offering are used ("A/B test" method). Based on the results of the success and reach measurement, we can, in particular, fix errors, strengthen popular content, or make improvements to our online offering.

For success and reach measurement, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of individual users are stored in most cases. In this case, IP addresses are generally shortened ("IP masking") to follow the principle of data minimization through appropriate pseudonymization.

Cookies may be used for success and reach measurement, and user profiles may be created. Any user profiles created include, for example, the individual pages visited or content viewed on our website, information on the size of the screen or browser window, and the – at least approximate – location. In principle, any user profiles are created exclusively pseudonymously and are not used for identifying individual users. Individual third-party services where users are logged in may be able to associate the use of our online offering with the user account or user profile of the respective service.

We use, in particular:

  • Google Analytics: Success and reach measurement; Provider: Google; Google Analytics-specific information: Measurement also across different browsers and devices (Cross-Device Tracking) as well as with pseudonymized Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, which are only exceptionally transmitted completely to Google in the USA, «Data Protection», «Browser Add-on for Deactivating Google Analytics».
  • Google Tag Manager: Integration and management of other services for success and reach measurement as well as other services from Google and third parties; Provider: Google; Google Tag Manager-specific information: «Data collected with Google Tag Manager»; further information on data protection can be found with the individual integrated and managed services.

13. FINAL PROVISIONS

We have created this privacy policy with the Privacy Policy Generator from Datenschutzpartner.

We can adapt and supplement this privacy policy at any time. We will inform about such adaptations and supplements in an appropriate form, in particular by publishing the current privacy policy on our website.
