This privacy declaration details the data collection, retention, and processing protocols maintained by Palpatchsortit Media Ltd ("we", "our", or "the Company") across all electronic services and websites operating under palpatchsortit.monster. We adhere to the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and the General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) where applicable.

1. Scope of Data Collection

We process personal data only when necessary to deliver accurate editorial materials, maintain technical stability, or handle incoming inquiries. Data categories collected include:

  • Directly Supplied Information: Full names, contact telephone numbers, and email addresses submitted voluntarily through our electronic contact forms.
  • Automated Telemetry Logs: Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser application user-agent strings, referral URL paths, operating systems, and session timestamps necessary for network firewall enforcement and error detection.
  • Local Storage and Cookies: State preferences recorded to store privacy consent selections.

2. Legal Bases and Processing Purposes

Data processing operations occur under defined legal justifications under Article 6 of the GDPR and equivalent provisions of the revised Swiss FADP:

  • Legitimate Interests: Securing server integrity, preventing malicious script injections, and maintaining service reliability.
  • Consent: Storing functional analytics cookies or responding to explicit inquiries initiated by the user.
  • Legal Obligation: Fulfilling statutory bookkeeping, corporate compliance, and data preservation orders under Swiss commercial statutes.

3. Third-Party Processors and Hosting Infrastructure

We maintain high data minimization standards. Our hosting servers and database clusters are situated in secure European and Swiss tier-three data centers equipped with ISO/IEC 27001 certifications. Data processors contracted for technical services include infrastructure providers and delivery networks bound by strict Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) prohibiting secondary data exploitation.

4. Data Subject Rights Under GDPR & FADP

Regardless of residency, users interact with our platform with full protections. You retain the right to:

  • Request formal confirmation and copies of personal data stored in our archives.
  • Require correction of inaccurate or incomplete factual records.
  • Demand irreversible erasure of personal information ("right to be forgotten"), subject to mandatory Swiss retention periods.
  • Withdraw previously granted consent at any time without retroactive invalidation.
  • Lodge formal complaints with the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) of Switzerland or relevant EU supervisory bodies.

5. Retention Schedules and Data Erasure

Server access log entries containing obfuscated IP records are purged on a rolling 30-day cycle. Inquiries delivered via contact forms are maintained for up to 12 months to satisfy follow-up communications, after which records are shredded or anonymized.
