This privacy policy is designed to meet the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and the Swiss Data Protection Act ("DPA"). However, whether and to what extent these laws apply depends on the individual case. We largely use the terminology of the GDPR below.


Terms
The definitions of the data protection law terms used correspond to those of Art. 4 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Where the term "data" is used in the notes on data processing, this refers to personal data within the meaning of the GDPR.

The person responsible pursuant to Art. 4 (7) DSGVO is:

You are entitled to the following rights:

a) Withdrawal of consent pursuant to Art. 7 (3) DSGVO.
If the processing is based on consent, you can revoke your consent to the processing of personal data in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO at any time with respect to us for the future. This means that the data processing based on this consent may no longer be continued in the future. The revocation of the consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

b) Right to information according to Art. 15 DSGVO

You can request information about your processed personal data at any time in accordance with Art. 15 DSGVO. In particular, you can request information about the processing purposes, the categories of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your personal data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or a right to object, the existence of a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, the origin of your personal data if they have not been collected from you, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling pursuant to Art. 22 (1-4) DSGVO and - at least in these cases - meaningful information about the logic involved as well as the scope and the intended effects of such processing for the data subject. The restrictions pursuant to Section 34 BDSG apply.


c) Right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 DSGVO

Pursuant to Art. 16 DSGVO, you may demand the immediate correction of incorrect or the completion of stored personal data.

d) Right to erasure pursuant to Art. 17 DSGVO

Pursuant to Art. 17 DSGVO, you may request the erasure of stored personal data, unless the processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. The restrictions according to § 35 BDSG apply.


e) Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 DSGVO

Pursuant to Art. 18 DSGVO, you may request the restriction of the processing of your personal data insofar as the accuracy of the data is disputed, the processing is unlawful, but its erasure is refused and your personal data is no longer required, but you need it for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of personal data relating to you which is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1), p. 1 lit. f) DSGVO (data processing on the basis of legitimate interests). When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data in the way we have done. If you object, the personal data will no longer be processed unless compelling legitimate grounds for processing can be demonstrated which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing is for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.


h) Rights to data portability according to Art. 22 DSGVO
You have the right to receive the personal data you have provided in a structured, common and machine-readable format in accordance with Article 20 DSGVO, provided that the processing is carried out with the aid of automated procedures and is based on consent in accordance with Article 6 (1), sentence 1 a) or Article 9 (2) a) or on a contract in accordance with Article 6 (1), sentence 1 b) DSGVO.

Processing purposes and legal basis

Each time you visit our website, your browser transmits data to our web server (so-called "server log files"), which may enable identification. The data processing is necessary for the course of the website visit. In order to enable delivery of the web pages, a technical connection must be established between your browser and our website. Further processing purposes are the optimisation of the stability and functionality of our websites, the guarantee of the security of our information technology systems, abuse detection and tracking. The legal basis is our legal obligation to ensure data security pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. c) DSGVO as well as our overriding legitimate interest in direct marketing and in the security of our offer pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p.1 lit. f) DSGVO, as long as this is done in accordance with data protection law.

Data categories and data origin
Depending on the configuration of your browser, the following data, among others, is processed: 

  • Web page called up
  • Date and time of the call
  • Amount of data transferred
  • Message about successful call
  • Browser used
  • Operating system used
  • Internet service provider
  • IP address of the calling system of the user
  • Website from which the user's system accessed the website in question

Recipients of personal data
We use external service providers such as hosting service providers as order processors for the provision of our websites, who may therefore have access to your personal data.  

Duration of storage
The data is stored for a period of 30 days. We reserve the right to check the files if concrete evidence justifies the justified suspicion of illegal use or a concrete attack on our website. Data whose further storage is necessary for evidentiary purposes will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose of their processing.


Cookies


Processing purposes and legal basis
Our website uses so-called "cookies". Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them. Other cookies are used to evaluate user behaviour or to display advertising. 
Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process or to optimise the website are stored. We have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of our offer. 
We use all other cookies on the basis of your consent, which you can select in the data protection settings when you first visit our website. Your consent can be revoked at any time for the future. 

Data categories and data origin
Cookies are data records that are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session or permanently on the hard disk of your end device and are assigned to the browser you are using so that certain information can flow to the body that sets the cookie. Cookies are primarily used to make our website faster and more user-friendly. When you call up our website and at any time later, you have the choice of whether you generally allow cookies to be set or which individual additional functions you would like to select. 

Recipients of personal data
We use external service providers, such as hosting service providers, as processors for the provision of our websites and they may therefore have access to your personal data. When you visit our website, third-party cookies (External Content) may also be stored on your terminal device. These enable us or you to use certain services of the third-party provider. 
 

Duration of storage, revocation of consent
Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit to our website. Permanent cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser. Information on the storage period of cookies can be found in the 
data protection settings. In the data protection settings, you can also change the cookie settings and thus revoke the consent you have given, with the exception of the "Essential" category, as these are technically necessary cookies for the correct display of our web pages. You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Stored cookies can be deleted in the system settings of your browser. Deactivating cookies may lead to a restriction of the functionality of this website.

Web analysis with Matomo Analytics

Processing purposes and legal basis

We use the open source web analytics service Matomo on our websites to analyse visitor flows. No data is transmitted to Matomo. Matomo enables us to determine, among other things, from which internet page you have come to our website and how often or how long you have visited a sub-page. It is not possible to assign the web statistics to your terminal device or your access point. Only an allocation to individual regions is visible. With the evaluation of the data obtained, we would like to further improve our websites and their user-friendliness and adapt them even more to the needs of website visitors. If you consent to the web analysis by ticking "Analytics & Performance" in the data protection settings (Art. 6 para. 1, p.1 lit. a) in conjunction with Art. 7 DSGVO), you will be informed of this. Art. 7 DSGVO), your usage behaviour will be recorded anonymously. Consent is voluntary and not required for the use of our websites. 

Data categories and data origin
We use Matomo without setting cookies on your terminal device. Instead, Matomo uses the visitor config_id, a randomly set, time-limited hash of a limited set of the visitor's settings and attributes. The config_id is a string calculated for a visitor based on their operating system, browser, browser plugins, IP address and browser language. The config_id is only valid for a maximum of 24 hours and only for a specific website domain. The calculation of the config_id changes randomly every 24 hours, so that the same visitor has a different config_id every day. The config_id is completely anonymised every 24 hours. The randomly generated seed is discarded every day and cannot be recovered. The website ID is used to process the config_id, which means that a given user/visitor will always have a different config_id when visiting different websites and domains. Furthermore, we have configured Matomo to only collect your IP address in an abbreviated form by masking the last two bytes (e.g. 192.168.xxx.xxx). This anonymised IP address is also used to calculate the config_id. We therefore process your personal usage data anonymously; it is not possible for us to draw any conclusions about your person. 

Duration of storage, revocation of consent
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for our recording purposes. We have set Matomo so that collected analysis data is deleted after 6 months. You can revoke your consent to data processing using Matomo at any time for the future by unchecking "Analytics & Performance" here.  
 


Login options

Processing purposes and legal basis 
We offer our customers the possibility to log in to closed areas in order to use additional services such as shipment registration, shipment tracking. As a rule, registration takes place via us.  
The data is processed for the purpose of implementing the user relationship established by the registration and, if necessary, for initiating or implementing further contracts. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. b) DSGVO.

Data categories and data origin
If you use closed areas, we collect and process your personal data required for the performance of the contract, such as name, contact data, address data and the data required for your identification and use. 

Recipients of personal data
If we use external service providers as order processors for the provision of these services, they may have access to your personal data. 

Duration of storage
We process and store your personal data as long as it is necessary for the fulfilment of the above-mentioned purposes. In this context, personal data may be retained for the period of assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims (statutory limitation periods of three to thirty years). In addition, we store your personal data insofar as we are legally obliged to do so. Corresponding obligations to provide proof and to store data result, for example, from commercial, tax and social security regulations. The storage period under tax and commercial law is generally 10 years at the end of a financial year. 

 


Newsletter service, newsletter analysis


Processing purposes and legal basis
We offer you the option of using our free e-mail newsletter service to regularly send you e-mails with information about our services to the e-mail address you have provided. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1, p.1 lit. a) DSGVO. The consent can be revoked at any time for the future. When you register for the newsletter, we document the consent given on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. Newsletter analysis by means of link tracking enables us to analyse the success of our newsletter campaigns, for example, whether the newsletter was opened at all or whether links were clicked. In this way, we can determine, for example, which content particularly appealed to our newsletter recipients. The newsletter analysis is carried out with anonymised data, so that it is impossible to relate it to a specific person. Unfortunately, it is not possible to separately object to the newsletter analysis. Please unsubscribe from our newsletter service if you do not wish to receive newsletter analysis. 

Data categories and data origin
When you register for the newsletter service on our website, the data from the input mask is transmitted to us. To register for the newsletter, it is sufficient to enter your e-mail address. Optionally, we ask you to enter your title, first and last name as well as your company in order to address you personally in the newsletter. We use the so-called double opt-in procedure for the registration process. Once you have registered, you will receive an e-mail with a confirmation link. Only when this link has been clicked will you be included in the newsletter distribution list. In this way, we prevent unauthorised third parties from registering using your email address. We log the registration process in order to be able to prove the process in accordance with legal requirements. The data from the input mask as well as the date and time of the registration confirmation are saved.

Recipients of personal data
For the provision of newsletters and for newsletter analysis, we use an external service provider as an order processor, who processes your personal data on our behalf.


Duration of storage
If you do not confirm your subscription to our newsletter service after receiving the corresponding registration email, your information will be automatically deleted after 30 days. We process your personal data for the duration of the newsletter subscription. You can cancel the subscription at any time with effect for the future and thus revoke your consent to receive newsletters or object to the processing of your personal data for advertising purposes. For this purpose, you will find a corresponding unsubscribe option on our website and in each newsletter. After revocation of your consent or objection to advertising, you will not be sent any further newsletters and your personal data will be removed from our active distribution list.

Processing purposes and legal basis
We process personal data in accordance with the provisions of the DSG:

a) Based on your consent (Article 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. a) DSGVO).
Insofar as you have given us consent in individual cases to process personal data for specific purposes (e.g. film and photo shoots, newsletter subscription), the lawfulness of this processing is based on your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future.

b) In the context of the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures
(Art. 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. b) DSGVO).

We process personal data primarily for the fulfilment of contractual obligations and the provision of related services or in the context of a corresponding contract initiation (e.g. contract negotiations, preparation of offers). The specific purposes here depend on the respective service to which the business relationship or the contract initiation relates, in particular in connection with orders from customers. We also process personal data in the processing of services rendered, in particular invoicing, accounts receivable management, dunning and debt collection.

The data processing serves the following purposes in particular:

  • Initiation, implementation and processing of transport, forwarding and logistics services, including in the area of land transport, air and sea freight, logistics and outsourcing, supply chain management and customs management.
  • Within the scope of the services provided, in particular transport and logistics services, personal data are processed on the basis of contracts concluded with you, the senders or the recipients. This data is used, for example, to execute a (transport) contract, to manage customer data, to process payments and, if necessary, to check creditworthiness. Certain shipping data is provided to the authorities of the transit or destination country - depending on the relevant legal regulations - for the purpose of customs clearance and taxation or for security checks. Such data usually includes the name and address of the sender, name and address of the recipient, description of goods, number of pieces, weight and value of the shipment.
  • Communication with customers, service providers, subcontractors, business partners as well as public authorities.
  • Support, in particular answering enquiries from our contact persons, interested parties, customers or partners
  • Organisation, planning, implementation and administration of the business relationship between us and our customers, suppliers and business partners as well as our affiliated companies and cooperation partners.

c) Due to legal obligations (Art. 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit c) DSGVO).
The purposes of the processing include, among others, the fulfilment of control and reporting obligations under tax and social law. This also includes statutory reporting obligations in the provision of services and posting under A1 procedures. Likewise, the processing of personal data insofar as this is necessary for the implementation of technical and organisational measures in accordance with Art. 32 DSGVO.

d) For the protection of legitimate interests (Article 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. f) DSGVO)
Where necessary, we process your data beyond the actual performance of the contract to safeguard legitimate interests of us or third parties, namely:

  • Data processing for security, quality assurance and process optimisation: we process, to the extent permitted by law, personal data collected in the course of the performance of the contract for (data) security purposes (e.g. for the purpose of detecting criminal offences or misuse), for compliance measures, for the preparation of statistics as well as for quality assurance, process optimisation and planning security on the basis of our legitimate interest in relation to ensuring smooth operations as well as the continuous improvement of the respective products and services. According to our assessment, there is no predominant interest of the data subjects worthy of protection, as the processing is carried out with as little intrusion as possible, e.g. by using pseudonyms. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1, p. 1 lit. f) DSGVO.
  • Settling legal disputes, enforcing existing contracts and asserting, exercising and defending legal claims
  • Maintaining and protecting the security of our systems and IT operations
  • Building and facility security measures (e.g. access control or video surveillance)
  • Exchange of control and planning data
  • Credit assessment
  • Sales and marketing activities
  • Interested party and customer support  

Categories of data and origin of data
a) The categories of personal data processed include:

  • Master data (title, first and last names, address, function, department).
  • Contact data (telephone number, mobile phone number, fax number and e-mail address)

Information that we publish via these services can also be accessed in the same or similar way here: www.streck-transport.ch. You can contact us at any time via kommunikation@streck.ch. We would like to point out that you use the services offered here and their functionalities on your own responsibility.

In the context of the user-side use of our presences in the social networks mentioned below, we would like to point out that personal data of the users can also be processed by the operators of the social networks outside the European Union and outside the European Economic Area. This may result in possible risks for users, for example in more difficult enforcement of data protection rights. At the same time, however, we would like to point out that if the operators of the social networks support this, we will work towards the conclusion of joint responsibility agreements pursuant to Article 26 of the GDPR and standard data protection clauses pursuant to Article 46(2)(d) of the GDPR.

In addition, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that the personal data of users is usually also processed by the operators of the social networks for their own market research and advertising purposes. Any usage profiles generated from the usage behaviour can also be used to display interest-based advertisements outside of the social networks. For this purpose, the operators of the social networks usually place cookies on the users' computers so that device information, usage behaviour and interests of users can be processed even if the user does not have a profile in the respective network.

For more information on this and on possible objection options, please refer to the data protection information and further notes of the respective social network operators, which we have linked for you below.

Data categories
The categories of data processed include inventory data (e.g. names), contact data (e.g. email addresses), content data (e.g. text entries), usage data (e.g. interest in content) and meta and communication data (e.g. device information and IP addresses).

Storage period
Storage of the data categories processed by us takes place solely within the respective social network. In most cases, we have no influence on the specific storage period, as this is determined by the providers of the social networks. Information on this can be found in the data protection information of the respective provider. If the storage period can be influenced by us in individual cases, it will be deleted after the purpose has been fulfilled in compliance with the statutory retention obligations.
