3. General Principles
3.1 What Data We Collect and From Whom
We primarily process personal data that you provide to us or that we collect during the operation of our website. In some cases, we may also receive personal data about you from third parties. These may include the following categories:
- Personal master data (name, address, date of birth, etc.);
- Contact data (mobile number, email address, etc.);
- Financial data (e.g., bank account details);
- Online identifiers (e.g., cookie IDs, IP addresses);
- Location and traffic data;
- Audio and video recordings;
- Special category data (e.g., biometric data or health information).
3.2 Legal Basis for Processing
We treat your data confidentially and in accordance with the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. We ensure transparent and proportionate processing.
If we are exceptionally unable to adhere to these principles, data processing may still be lawful due to a valid legal basis. These may include:
- Your consent;
- The performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures;
- Our legitimate interests, provided they are not overridden by your interests.
3.3 How to Withdraw Consent
If you have provided consent for the processing of your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your data within the scope of that consent, unless another legal basis applies.
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by sending an email to the address provided in our imprint. Data processing already carried out prior to your withdrawal remains unaffected.
3.4 Third-Party Data Sharing
a. General Principle
We may rely on third-party services or affiliated companies and appoint them to process your data on our behalf (so-called Data Processors). Categories of recipients include:
- Accounting, trust, and audit firms;
- Consulting firms (legal, tax, etc.);
- IT service providers (web hosting, support, cloud services, web design, etc.);
- Payment service providers;
- Providers of tracking, conversion, and advertising services.
We ensure that these third parties and our affiliated companies comply with data protection requirements and treat your personal data confidentially.
We may also be legally obligated to disclose your personal data to authorities.
b. Visiting Our Social Media Channels
We may have embedded links to our social media channels on our website. These are clearly visible to you (typically via corresponding icons). Clicking on these icons will redirect you to our social media channels.
The social media providers will then be notified that you accessed their platform from our website. The social media providers may use the collected data for their own purposes. Please note that we do not receive information about the content of the transmitted data or how the operators use it.
c. International Data Transfers
In the course of order processing, your personal data may be transferred to companies abroad. These companies are bound by the same data protection obligations as we are. Transfers may occur worldwide.
If the data protection level in the destination country does not meet Swiss standards, we conduct a prior risk assessment and contractually guarantee equivalent protection (e.g., using the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or other legally prescribed measures). If our risk assessment yields negative results, we implement additional technical safeguards. You can access the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses here: https://commission.europa.eu/publications/standard-contractual-clauses-controllers-and-processors-eueea_de
3.5 Data Retention Periods
We retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which they were collected.
Data stored during your visit to our website is retained for twelve months. An exception applies to analytics and tracking data, which may be stored longer.
Contractual data is retained longer due to legal obligations. We must keep business correspondence, concluded contracts, and booking documents for up to 10 years. Once such data is no longer needed for service delivery, it is blocked and used solely for accounting and tax purposes.
3.6 Data Security Measures
We securely store your data and implement all appropriate measures to protect it against loss, unauthorized access, misuse, or alteration.
Our contractual partners and employees who have access to your data are bound by confidentiality and data protection regulations. In some cases, we may need to forward your inquiries to affiliated companies. In these instances, your data will also be treated confidentially.
Within our website, we use SSL encryption (Secure Socket Layer) with the highest encryption level supported by your browser.

a. Right to Access & Data Portability
You may request information about the personal data we store about you at any time. Please send your request along with proof of identity to info@nize-perfumes.com.
You also have the right to receive your data in a common file format if we process it automatically and if:
- You have consented to the processing of this data; or
- You provided data in connection with the conclusion or performance of a contract.
We may restrict or refuse access/data provision if it conflicts with our legal obligations, legitimate interests, public interests, or the rights of third parties.
Your request will be processed within the statutory period of 30 days. This period may be extended due to high request volume, legal or technical reasons, or if we require further information from you. You will be notified of any extension in good time, at least in text form.
b. Right to Erasure & Rectification
You may request the deletion or correction of your data at any time. We may deny the request if legal regulations require longer or unchanged retention, or if a legal basis opposes your request.
Please note that exercising your rights may conflict with contractual agreements and could impact contract performance (e.g., early termination or cost implications).
c. Right to Lodge a Complaint
If you are affected by the processing of personal data, you have the right to enforce your rights in court or file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent authority in Switzerland is the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC): https://www.edoeb.admin.ch

Data is stored only as long as necessary to achieve the collection purpose and is deleted after each session. Logfile storage is essential for website operation; therefore, you cannot object to it.
4.2 Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies,” text files stored on your computer that enable analysis of website usage.
Information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA. If IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be truncated by Google within EU member states or other EEA contracting states beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.
On behalf of the website operator, Google will use this information to evaluate your website usage, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website and internet usage to the operator.
