Embedding of Listings from newhome.ch
Listings from the real estate portal Newhome (www.newhome.ch) are embedded on our website. When you access a corresponding page, content is loaded and displayed directly from Newhome’s servers. In this process, Newhome may collect your IP address and other technical data (e.g., browser type, operating system, time of access) to display the content correctly and analyze usage. Newhome is responsible for the processing of this data. Further information on data protection at Newhome can be found in their privacy policy at www.newhome.ch.
Security Measures
When processing data, both the controller and the processor implement organizational and technical safeguards that take into account modern technological capabilities, the characteristics of the data processing (purpose, scope, circumstances), and the varying risks to natural persons. These precautions are intended to ensure continuous protection of the data, proportional to the risks.
These measures may include, for example, encryption, maintaining the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of systems and services, as well as ensuring sufficient resilience. We take particular care to restore the availability of and access to data as quickly as possible in the event of physical or technical problems.
Through regular review and testing of security measures, we ensure that the guarantees provided not only exist in theory but also offer an adequate level of protection in practice. We store data in such a way that unauthorized persons cannot access it. To this end, paper-based documents are kept in a closed, secure environment, while electronic data can only be accessed by persons with appropriately regulated access rights.
We also ensure that data can be permanently deleted after the retention period expires or for any other reason requiring erasure. This deletion is irreversible. Paper-based documents are destroyed using special paper shredders or by an external company specializing in this. When decommissioning or disposing of electronic data carriers, we ensure that the data is irretrievably removed.
Protection of Paper-Based Documents
For printed data, we ensure physical protection, which includes secure, dry storage and appropriately lockable rooms. Access to the relevant documents is restricted to authorized employees. If paper-based documents are digitized, the corresponding digital processing rules apply. Anyone processing data may only leave the work area if the documents entrusted to them are secured and unauthorized persons are excluded.
The building and rooms where the paper-based documents are located have appropriate fire and property protection systems to reduce the risk of physical damage.
Retention Periods
We store data only for as long as is necessary or as required by law.
Disclosure of Data to Third Parties
We only transfer your data to third parties if you have given your explicit consent or if this is required by law or by official order.
IT Security
The computers and mobile devices involved in data processing are equipped with suitable antivirus and access control systems. To protect electronically stored information, we use current backups and archiving solutions and ensure they are retrievable when needed.
Access to the central server is restricted to authorized persons with clearly defined authorization levels. The computers used for work, as well as the data stored on them, are protected against unauthorized access by passwords and other access controls.
Management and Reporting of Data Breaches
If an incident occurs that could result in unauthorized access, corruption, or loss of personal data, we take immediate measures to further protect the affected data and to mitigate the damage. If the situation is likely to pose a significant risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we will inform the data subjects without delay, clearly explaining the nature of the incident and the measures we have taken or plan to take to address it.
Notification of the data subjects may be omitted if we have previously implemented security solutions (e.g., encryption) that render the personal data incomprehensible to unauthorized persons, or if we have significantly reduced the risk potential through other measures. In certain cases, a public announcement may suffice instead of individual notification if the latter would involve disproportionate effort.
In accordance with applicable regulations, we will report a data breach that is likely to pose a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons to the competent supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of it. If the report is made after this deadline, the reasons for the delay must also be provided.
User Rights
As a data subject (user), you have the following rights regarding the processing of your personal data:
- Right of access: You have the right to know whether we store information about you and, if so, what details. You can also request information about the purpose, legal basis, and other relevant circumstances of the data processing.
- Right to rectification: You have the right to request the correction or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Right to erasure (“Right to be forgotten”): If the data is no longer needed or if the legal requirements for erasure are met, you can request that it be deleted as soon as possible.
- Right to restriction of processing: In certain cases, you can request that we merely store the data and not use it further (e.g., if you dispute the accuracy of the data but do not want it to be deleted immediately).
- Right to data portability: You have the right to receive the data we have stored about you in a machine-readable format or to request that we transfer it to another provider, where technically feasible.
- Right to object: You can object to the further processing of your personal data if you believe that our legitimate interests (or other legal bases) do not sufficiently justify such processing.
To exercise these rights, please contact us (E-mail: hc.uoy4ytreporp@ofni). We strive to respond to incoming requests as quickly as possible. As a rule, we will respond within one month of receiving your request, but this period may be extended by a further two months—for example, in the case of complex requests. We will inform you of the reasons for any extension within the first month.
If we are unable to comply with your request, we will also inform you of this and the reasons for it within the specified period. In this case, you are free to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority or to seek legal redress.
