4 On what legal basis and for what purposes do we process personal data?

Depending on the purpose of the processing activity (see Section 3 above), the processing of your information and personal data will take one of the following forms:

1. necessary for MindMetrix AG’s legitimate interests without unreasonably prejudicing your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms (see below);
2. necessary for the formation or performance of a contract with you for the services or products you have requested or for the performance of our obligations under such contract, for example, where we use your data for some of the purposes set out in Sections 3(1) – 3(3) above (as well as for some of the data sharing described in this Section 4);
3. necessary to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, including carrying out checks to identify you and disclosing information to authorities, regulators and government bodies, to the purposes set out in Sections 5(5) and 5(6);
4. in some cases, necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest;

6. processed with your consent, which we may obtain from you from time to time (e.g., when required by law), or processed with your explicit consent, which may be necessary, where special categories of personal data are involved.

Examples of the “legitimate interests” mentioned above include:

in any case, unless your interests in privacy outweigh these interests.

5 Who has access to personal data and with whom is it shared?

We may share your information, including personal information, as follows:

1. Aggregated and Anonymized Information. We may use aggregated or anonymized information – so that it cannot be used to identify an individual – to perform various types of analyses, such as improving our products and services or other similar analyses.
2. Service Providers. We may share your information with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform service functions we need to operate our business, such as providers of hosting, email communications, customer services, analytics, marketing and advertising, based on our instructions and in accordance with this Statement and other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
3. Business Transfers. If we are acquired by or merged with another company, if substantially all of our assets are transferred to another company, or as part of a bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization, we will notify affected users before transferring personal information to a new company.
4. In response to legal process. We may disclose information we collect from you to comply with the law, a court proceeding, a court order, or other legal process, such as in response to a court order or subpoena.
5. In response to regulatory or legal obligations: As required from time to time, we may disclose personal information to public and judicial authorities, regulatory agencies or governmental bodies and in proceedings, including as required by law or regulation or by such authorities or bodies.
6. To protect ourselves and others, we may disclose information we collect from you if we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use or this Statement, or as evidence in any legal proceeding involving MindMetrix AG.
7. Third Party Analytics Tools. We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate the use of our Service. We may also use other analytics tools to evaluate our websites. We use these tools to improve myflow, performance and user experience.

6 International transfer of personal data

The recipients mentioned in section 5 above may be located outside of Switzerland. In such cases, except where the country in question has been determined by the EU or Switzerland to provide an adequate level of protection, MindMetrix AG will implement appropriate safeguards to ensure that any such transfer is in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

You may request additional information in this regard and obtain a copy of the appropriate safeguards by contacting us at the address provided at the end of this notice. When MindMetrix AG transfers personal data to service providers in countries that do not provide an adequate level of protection, we rely on standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or Switzerland.

7 How long do we store your data for?

We will retain your information, including personal data, only as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected or to comply with legal, regulatory or internal requirements. To this end, we apply criteria to determine the appropriate time periods to retain your personal information based on its purpose, such as proper recordkeeping, facilitating the management of customer relationships, and responding to legal claims or regulatory inquiries.

You can manage your cookies locally by adjusting your browser settings, or you can opt out of targeted advertising through cookies by visiting networkadvertising.org/choices or aboutads.info/choices.
