We, LexTec GmbH, Adlerstrasse 23, 8854 Siebnen, operate the website and are the provider of the services, tools and the Legal AI offered on the website. We are consequently deemed the controller for the collection, use and processing of your data.
In the following, we set out for you whether and how we process your data.
We process exclusively personal data that we collect directly via our website, the associated applications, via external platforms, via so-called "Landing Pages" or within the framework of the business relationship with our customers and other business partners. Processing takes place only if an express consent or a legal basis exists, for example for contract processing, for the fulfillment of legal obligations or on the basis of legitimate interests on our part.
Within the framework of the consent granted by you, we process your data only within the limits of this consent, unless one of the following legal bases exists. We expressly point out that you can revoke your consent at any time, whereby a processing act that has already – lawfully – taken place is not affected by the revocation.
The following legal bases come into consideration:
We delete personal data as soon as the purpose of their collection is fulfilled and there is no necessity for their further storage. However, there are cases in which we are legally obligated to store data for a longer period. This concerns in particular provisions of the Swiss or European legislator in areas such as contract and tax law as well as commercial accounting. For example, business records, contracts and accounting vouchers must be retained for a duration of 10 years. Personal data that are stored exclusively for legal reasons and are no longer needed for the provision of our services, we block and use only for purposes of accounting and tax.
Within the framework of order processing, the use of third-party services may be required. In doing so, it may become necessary to pass on data to external service providers for the provision of services in accordance with the contract. The legal bases for this data disclosure correspond to those of lawful processing and are explained in more detail in the previous section. We ensure through contractual agreements that the third parties commissioned with the data processing comply with the data protection provisions. In addition, we could in certain cases be obligated by official or judicial orders to hand over data to state bodies or third parties.
Our system automatically collects and stores – as soon as you access our website – information in so-called log files. This concerns the following information:
The aforementioned data cannot be directly attributed to any person and are not merged with other personal data, but remain in our system. The collection and storage of this data in log files is based on the legitimate interests of our company, in particular the assurance of the functionality and security of our services as well as their optimization. The log files are automatically deleted after the end of each session.
The recording and storage of your data in log files is indispensable for the operation of our website; therefore there is no possibility to object to this process.
We use technically necessary local storage technologies to remember your language and market selection and your privacy choice. These settings are required for the presentation you selected and to manage your consent; they are not used for analytics or marketing.
Google Analytics and its optional analytics cookies are loaded only after you have expressly consented through our cookie banner. If you reject optional cookies, no connection to Google Analytics is established and the website remains fully usable.
You can change your choice at any time through “Cookie settings” in the footer. If you withdraw consent, analytics is disabled and the first-party cookies set by Google Analytics are deleted. You can also manage or delete cookies and local website data through your browser settings.
