3. General Principles
3.1 What Data Do We Collect from You and from Whom Do We Receive This Data?
Primarily, we process personal data that you provide to us or that we collect during the operation of our website. In some cases, we may receive personal data about you from third parties. These may include the following categories:
- Personal data (name, address, birth date, etc.);
- Contact information (mobile number, email address, etc.);
- Financial data (e.g., account details);
- Online identifiers (e.g., cookie identifiers, IP addresses);
- Location and traffic data;
- Audio and visual recordings;
- Particularly sensitive data (e.g., biometric data or health information).
3.2 Under What Conditions Do We Process Your Data?
We treat your data confidentially and in accordance with the purposes outlined in this privacy policy. We ensure that the processing is transparent and proportionate.
If, in exceptional cases, we are unable to follow these principles, the data processing may still be lawful because a justification exists. Possible justifications include:
- Your consent;
- the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures;
- our legitimate interests, provided that your interests do not outweigh them.
3.3 How Can You Withdraw Your Consent?
If you have given us consent for the processing of your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your data within the scope of this consent, unless we have another legal basis.
You can withdraw your consent at any time by sending an email to the address provided in the legal notice. Data processing that has already occurred is not affected by this withdrawal.
3.4 In What Cases Can We Share Your Data with Third Parties?
a. Principle
We may need to rely on third-party services or affiliated companies to process your data (so-called data processors). Categories of recipients include, among others:
- Accounting, fiduciary, and auditing companies;
- Consulting companies (legal, tax, etc.);
- IT service providers (web hosting, support, cloud services, website design, etc.);
- Payment service providers;
- Providers of tracking, conversion, and advertising services.
We ensure that these third parties and our affiliated companies comply with data protection requirements and treat your personal data confidentially.
In some cases, we may also be required to disclose your personal data to authorities.
b. Visiting Our Social Media Channels
We may have embedded links to our social media channels on our website. This is clearly visible to you (typically through corresponding symbols). If you click on the symbols, you will be redirected to our social media channels.
In this case, the social media providers will learn that you accessed their platform from our website. The social media providers may use the data collected in this manner for their own purposes. Please note that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or how it is used by the operators.
c. Data Transfer Abroad
In some cases, as part of data processing, your personal data may be transmitted to companies abroad. These companies are subject to the same data protection obligations as we are. The transfer may take place worldwide.
If the level of data protection does not match that of Switzerland, we will perform a prior risk assessment and ensure contractually that the same level of protection as in Switzerland is guaranteed (e.g., using the new standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or other legally mandated measures). If our risk assessment is negative, we will take additional technical measures to protect your data. You can access the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses at the following link: https://commission.europa.eu/publications/standard-contractual-clauses-controllers-and-processors-eueea_de
3.5 How Long Do We Retain Your Data?
We store personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the specific purposes for which the data was collected.
Data we store during your visit to our website is kept for twelve months. An exception applies to analytical and tracking data, which may be retained for a longer period.
Contract data is stored longer because we are required to do so by legal regulations. In particular, we must retain business communication, concluded contracts, and booking receipts for up to 10 years. If we no longer need such data to provide our services, the data will be locked, and we will only use it for invoicing and tax purposes.
3.6 How Do We Protect Your Data?
We will securely store your data and take all reasonable measures to protect it from loss, access, misuse, or alteration.
Our contractors and employees who have access to your data are obligated to comply with data protection regulations. In some cases, it will be necessary for us to forward your requests to affiliated companies. Even in these cases, your data will be treated confidentially.
Within our website, we use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol in conjunction with the highest encryption level supported by your browser.
3.7 What Rights Do You Have?
a. Right to Information
You can request information at any time about the data we hold about you. We ask that you send your request for information along with proof of identity to hello@eeht.ch.
You also have the right to receive your data in a common file format if we process your data automatically and if:
- You have given consent for the processing of this data; or
- You have disclosed data in connection with the conclusion or execution of a contract.
We may restrict or refuse the provision of information or data if it conflicts with our legal obligations, legitimate interests, or the interests of a third party.
The processing of your request is subject to a legal processing period of 30 days. However, we may extend this period due to high request volumes, legal or technical reasons, or if we need more information from you. You will be notified of the extension in writing in advance.
b. Deletion and Correction
You have the right to request the deletion or correction of your data at any time. We may refuse the request if legal regulations require us to retain the data for a longer period or unchanged, or if a legal basis opposes your request.
Please note that exercising your rights may conflict with contractual agreements and may have corresponding impacts on the execution of the contract (e.g., early termination of the contract or cost consequences).
c. Legal Recourse
If you are affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to enforce your rights in court or file a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority. The responsible supervisory authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner: https://www.edoeb.admin.ch

4.4 Google Ads Conversion Tracking
We use the “Google Ads” online advertising program on our website and, in this context, employ Conversion Tracking (visit action evaluation). Google Ads Conversion Tracking is an analysis service provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”).
If you click on an ad served by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking will be placed on your device.

The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
