PRIVACY POLICY
We process personal data (data that directly or indirectly identifies natural persons) that we receive from you or third parties involved in the fulfillment of the order or that we collect ourselves. BR Quality Consulting GmbH, Berneck, is responsible for the processing of personal data described in this privacy policy.
You or the data subjects provide us with some of the personal data when you or they contact us by e-mail or telephone and request our services. This includes, for example, name and contact details as well as information about the role of the data subject at the company or organization for which you or the respective contact persons work or on whose behalf you or they contact us. We also process personal data that we receive in our correspondence with third parties (namely customers, external partners and service providers, legal representatives and authorities and their employees or other contact persons) as part of the contractual relationship (e.g. name, contact details, date of birth, details of employment, income situation, family circumstances or state of health). We also collect some personal data ourselves, e.g. from public registers or websites.
We process the aforementioned types of personal data primarily in order to provide, document and invoice our contractual/consulting services.
In order to achieve the purposes described in this privacy policy, it may be necessary for us to disclose personal data to the following categories of recipients: Customers, external partners and service providers, legal representatives and authorities. We process the personal data within our area of responsibility in Switzerland. However, we may transfer the personal data to recipients who in turn process the personal data in other countries, including those that do not guarantee a level of data protection comparable to Swiss law. We will do the latter based on consent or standard contractual clauses or if it is necessary for the performance of a contract or the enforcement of legal claims.
We only store personal data for as long as is necessary to process the contractual relationship, for as long as there is a legal obligation to store and document data or for as long as we have an overriding private or public interest in doing so. We take appropriate and reasonable precautions to protect personal data from loss, unauthorized modification or unauthorized access by third parties. If you provide us with personal data via a third party (e.g. via your employees or other contact persons), it is up to you to inform them about the processing by external consulting service providers (such as us) or other external service providers (e.g. in a data protection declaration for employees).
We would like to point out that we use external IT service providers and cloud providers with servers in Switzerland in the context of order management. We then use certain IT services and means of communication that may be associated with data security risks (e.g. e-mail, video conferencing). It is your responsibility to inform us if you require special security measures.
We have a legitimate interest in the processing of personal data corresponding to the purposes mentioned. Some processing is also necessary so that we can fulfill our contractual obligations to you or our legal obligations (e.g. retention obligations).
In particular, data subjects have the right to information about the personal data stored about them and the purpose of data processing, the right to rectification and erasure or restriction of processing of their personal data, the right to object to processing, the right to seek a judicial remedy from a competent supervisory authority and the right to data portability/transferability. Please note, however, that conditions and exceptions apply to these rights. To the extent permitted or required by law, we may refuse requests to exercise these rights. For example, for legal reasons we may or must retain or otherwise continue to process the personal data despite a request to erase the personal data or restrict processing.
No consent is required from the client, your employees or other contact persons for the data protection declaration. The data protection declaration merely provides information about the type, scope and purpose of the use of personal data by BR Quality Consulting GmbH, Berneck. We reserve the right to unilaterally change the content of the aforementioned privacy policy at any time and without notice. It is therefore recommended that you consult our data protection declaration regularly on our website.
If you have any questions or if you or your employees or other contact persons are concerned about data protection rights, please contact us at mroggwiller@brqualityconsulting.com or write to BR Quality Consulting GmbH, Birnbaumweg 2, 9442 Berneck.
