This privacy policy explains which personal data we process in the online shop motorrad-shop-schweiz.ch, for what purpose, and what rights you have. It is governed by the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (Data Protection Act, FADP; SR 235.1), in force since 1 September 2023.

2. Ordering vouchers
For an order, we collect your salutation, first and last name, e-mail address and billing address as well as the order details (voucher, price, payment method, time). If you enter a dedication («Gift from» / «For»), we store it and print it on the voucher. For each voucher we store the voucher number, value, expiry date and redemption status.
We process this data to perform the purchase contract, to deliver the voucher as a PDF by e-mail, to check its redemption and to meet our legal obligations. Vouchers are redeemed when booking a course date at www.mx-academy.ch.
3. Customer account
If you open a customer account, we store your details and orders there so that you can view them and place further orders more easily. You can request the deletion of your customer account at any time.
4. Contact form and e-mail
If you contact us via the contact form or by e-mail, we process your details (salutation, first and last name, e-mail address, phone number, subject and comment) in order to answer your enquiry.
5. Product reviews and newsletter
If you submit a product review in your customer account, we store it and publish it on the product page after checking it. If you subscribe to the newsletter, we use your e-mail address to send you information about our offers. The subscription is confirmed by e-mail (double opt-in); you can unsubscribe at any time.
6. Server log files
When you visit the website, the server stores technical information such as the IP address, date and time, the page accessed, browser and operating system. We need this information for secure and stable operation. We do not combine it with other data and keep it only as long as necessary for this purpose.
7. Cookies
We only use technically necessary cookies: a session cookie (for the shopping cart and login), a cookie for the time zone and a cookie that stores your cookie settings. We do not use statistics, tracking or advertising cookies. In the cookie settings you can additionally allow comfort functions (videos from YouTube or Vimeo); such content is only loaded after you have given your consent.

9. Disclosure abroad
We process your personal data in Switzerland. If you allow videos from YouTube (Google) or Vimeo in the cookie settings, data such as your IP address is transmitted to these providers when the videos are loaded, including to the USA. This only happens with your express consent (Art. 17 para. 1 let. a FADP).
10. Retention
We only keep personal data for as long as is necessary for the purposes mentioned or required by law. We keep business records and accounting documents, which include orders and invoices, for ten years (Art. 958f CO). We store voucher data at least until the end of their validity.

You can withdraw any consent you have given at any time with effect for the future. Please contact info@mx-academy.ch for this.
