Contact form

The contact form is processed by Netlify Forms, a feature of my hosting provider Netlify, Inc. (San Francisco, USA), under its own privacy policy. The data you provide (name, email address, company, area of interest, message) is submitted to Netlify, stored there, and forwarded to me by email notification. As Netlify operates in the USA, this data may be transferred there; Netlify relies on recognized transfer mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses. I process the data solely to respond to your inquiry and, where relevant, to prepare an engagement. Legal basis: steps taken at your request prior to entering into a contract, and my legitimate interest in responding to inquiries efficiently. Submissions are kept as long as needed for that purpose and applicable retention duties, and can be deleted from Netlify on request.

Booking via Calendly

Appointments are scheduled through Calendly (Calendly LLC, Atlanta, USA). When you book, Calendly processes the data you enter there (name, email address, appointment details) under its own privacy policy. Data may be transferred to the USA; Calendly relies on recognized transfer mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses. I receive the booking details needed to prepare and hold the session.

Video calls via Google Meet

Sessions are held via Google Meet (Google Ireland Ltd. / Google LLC). When joining a call, Google processes connection and usage data under its own privacy policy. Calls are not recorded unless explicitly agreed in advance.

Server log files

When you visit this website, the hosting provider Netlify (Netlify, Inc., San Francisco, USA) automatically processes technical data such as IP address, date and time of access, browser type and pages visited. This is required to deliver the website and to ensure its security and stability, and constitutes a legitimate interest. As Netlify operates in the USA, this technical data may be transferred abroad; Netlify relies on recognized transfer mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses. Log data is not merged with other data sources.

Cookies, analytics and tracking

This website itself sets no cookies and uses no analytics or tracking tools. Third-party services you choose to use (Calendly, Google Meet, LinkedIn) may set their own cookies on their pages under their own policies.

Disclosure to third parties

Personal data is not sold or shared for advertising. It is disclosed only to the service providers named above, to the extent needed to deliver the services, or where required by law. Inquiries relating to Fractional CFO and HR services are forwarded to Daniela Landis for the purpose of responding to them.

Your rights

You have the right to request information about the personal data I process about you, and to request rectification, deletion or restriction of processing. Where the GDPR applies, you also have the right to data portability and to object to processing based on legitimate interest. To exercise these rights, contact thomas.landis@challengers.ch. You may also lodge a complaint with the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or, where the GDPR applies, with your local supervisory authority.

Data security

This website is delivered over an encrypted connection (HTTPS). Reasonable technical and organizational measures are in place to protect data against loss, misuse and unauthorized access.

Changes

This policy may be updated when the website or the services change. The current version is always available on this page.
