    2. Scope and Legal Basis

    This privacy policy explains how we collect, process, and use personal data when you visit our website thegoodguyscompany.ch or interact with us. It is based on the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nDSG / FADP), which came into force on 1 September 2023, and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

    3. Data We Collect

    3.1 Automatically Collected Data

    When you access our website, certain technical data is automatically transmitted by your browser. This may include:

    • IP address (anonymised where possible)
    • Date and time of access
    • Browser type and version
    • Operating system
    • Referring URL
    • Pages visited and duration of visit

    This data is processed for the purpose of ensuring the technical operation and security of the website (Art. 31 para. 1 nDSG; Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

    3.2 Data You Provide Voluntarily

    If you contact us via email, we process the personal data you provide (e.g. name, email address, message content) solely for the purpose of responding to your enquiry and managing our business relationship (Art. 31 para. 2 lit. a nDSG; Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR).

    4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

    This website uses only technically necessary cookies that are required for the proper functioning of the site. We do not use analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies. No cookie consent banner is therefore required under Swiss law.

    5. Third-Party Services

    5.1 Hosting

    Our website is hosted by third-party providers whose servers may be located outside of Switzerland. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place (e.g. standard contractual clauses) where personal data is transferred to countries without an adequate level of data protection.

    5.2 Google Fonts

    This website uses Google Fonts for consistent typography. Fonts are loaded from Google servers, which may result in your IP address being transmitted to Google LLC, USA. This is based on our legitimate interest in a uniform presentation (Art. 31 para. 1 nDSG; Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

    6. Data Transfers Abroad

    Where personal data is transferred to countries that do not provide an adequate level of data protection as recognised by the Swiss Federal Council or the European Commission, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the EU standard contractual clauses (SCCs) or the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.

    7. Data Retention

    We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. In particular, we observe the retention periods under Swiss commercial and tax law (typically 10 years under Art. 958f of the Swiss Code of Obligations).

    8. Your Rights

    Under the nDSG and, where applicable, the GDPR, you have the following rights:

    • Right of access — You may request information about whether and which personal data we process about you.
    • Right to rectification — You may request the correction of inaccurate data.
    • Right to erasure — You may request the deletion of your data, subject to legal retention obligations.
    • Right to data portability — You may request your data in a structured, commonly used format.
    • Right to object — You may object to data processing based on legitimate interests.

    To exercise your rights, please contact us at info@thegoodguyscompany.ch.

    9. Data Security

    We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse, in accordance with Art. 8 nDSG and Art. 32 GDPR.

    10. Supervisory Authority

    If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates data protection law, you may lodge a complaint with the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC):
