Privacy policy

Computer Vision AG

Last updated on May 10, 2026

Transparent handling of personal data is very important to us. This privacy policy provides information on what personal data we collect, for what purpose and to whom we pass it on. We regularly review and update this privacy policy to ensure maximum transparency.


What data we collect

We process your general personal data. Personal data is any type of information relating to an identifiable natural person. The natural person is identifiable if the available information allows conclusions to be drawn about the identity of the person.

Example: Your name, IP address and home address are personal data.

Provided data

You often provide us with your personal data yourself. Whenever you enter your personal data and transmit it to us, it is deemed to have been provided to us. The transfer of data to us is generally voluntary, but in some cases it is absolutely necessary in order to be able to use our services.

Example: You enter your data in a contact form or register for a newsletter.

Data collected

When you use our services, we sometimes collect your data without your active participation being required. This data is usually data about your device and data about user behavior.

Example: We collect data about the operating system of the device you used to access our website.

Data transfer

We share your personal data with companies that can decide for themselves how they use the data. This is usually done because it is necessary to comply with legal regulations, when an outstanding debt is transferred to a debt collection agency or to detect fraudulent activity.

Example: A legal regulation obliges us to pass on your data to an authority.

6 Rights of data subjects

6.1 Right to information

You can request information about the data we have stored about you at any time. Please send your request for information together with credible proof of identity to info@emeralgo.ch.

The information will be provided in writing or in another form, if necessary also electronically. If you so request, we can also provide you with the information verbally, provided you can prove your identity in another form. If you submit the request for information electronically, we will provide the information in a standard electronic format, unless you specify otherwise.

The information is generally provided free of charge. If additional copies are requested, a reasonable fee may be charged.

The right to receive a copy of the processed data must not impair the rights and freedoms of other persons.

In the case of manifestly unfounded or excessive requests for information, we reserve the right to refuse to provide the information within the limits of the law or to charge a reasonable fee.

The processing of your request is subject to the statutory time limit of one month. Due to the complexity and high number of requests, we may extend this period by a further two months if necessary. You will be informed of the extension within one month of submitting the request for information. At the same time, you will be informed of the reasons for the extension.

6.2 Erasure and rectification

You have the option of requesting the deletion, correction or completion of your data at any time, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations or legal permissions to the contrary.

Please note that exercising your rights may conflict with contractual agreements and may have a corresponding impact on the performance of the contract (e.g. premature termination of the contract or cost consequences).

6.3 Restriction of processing

You also have the right to request the restriction of processing if you dispute the accuracy of this data, the processing is unlawful, the data is no longer required or you have objected to the processing.

If the processing of the data is restricted, it may only be stored. Further processing may only take place with your consent, for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another person or for reasons of important public interest. You will be notified if the restriction is lifted.

6.4 Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from us to which the personal data have been provided, where the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means. You also have the right to request that the personal data be transferred directly by us to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible.

6.5 Right to object

If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you can withdraw this at any time. Such a revocation affects the permissibility of the processing of your personal data after you have expressed your objection to us.

Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on the balancing of interests, you can object to the processing. This is the case if, in particular, the processing is not necessary for the performance of a contract with you, which is described by us in the following description of the functions. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will examine the situation and either discontinue or adapt the data processing or show you our compelling reasons worthy of protection on the basis of which we will continue the processing.

You can object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time. You can contact us about your objection to advertising using the contact details provided in this privacy policy.

6.6 Right to lodge a complaint

You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data by us.

7 General principles

7.1 What data do we process from you and from whom do we receive this data?

First and foremost, we process personal data that you transmit to us or that we collect when operating our website. We may also receive personal data about you from third parties. This may include the following categories:

  • Personal master data (name, address, dates of birth, etc.);
  • Contact data (cell phone number, e-mail address, etc.);
  • Financial data (e.g. account details);
  • Online identifiers (e.g. cookie identifiers, IP addresses);

This data may originate from the following sources

  • Data from publicly accessible sources (e.g. media, internet);
  • Information from public registers (e.g. commercial register, debt collection register, land register);
  • Information in connection with official or judicial proceedings;
  • Information regarding your professional functions and activities (e.g. professional networks);
  • Information about you in correspondence and meetings with third parties;
  • Credit information (insofar as we conduct personal transactions with you);
  • Information about you that people from your environment give us so that we can conclude or process contracts with you;
  • data in connection with the use of the website.

7.2 Under what conditions do we process your data?

We process your data in accordance with the applicable data protection laws, in particular the GDPR. The processing is carried out for the purposes specified in this privacy policy. We pay attention to transparency and proportionality.

The processing of your data is lawful as long as one of the permissions of the GDPR is fulfilled. The following are possible permissions:

  • Your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR);
  • The fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR);
  • The fulfillment of legal obligations to which we are subject (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR);
  • The protection of vital interests of the data subject or another natural person (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR)

  • Our legitimate interests, unless your interests prevail (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

It may be necessary for you to provide us with certain personal data so that contractual obligations can be fulfilled. Without such data, we are normally unable to process a contract.

The website cannot normally be used either if certain information to secure data traffic, such as your IP address, is not disclosed.

7.3 In which cases can we pass on your data to third parties?

a. Principle

We may need to use the services of third parties or affiliated companies and commission them to process your data (so-called processors). Categories of recipients are in particular

  • Accounting, fiduciary and auditing companies;
  • Consulting companies (legal advice, taxes, etc.);
  • IT service providers (web hosting, support, cloud services, website 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 obliged to disclose your personal data to authorities.

b. Disclosure to partners and cooperation companies

We sometimes work together with various companies and partners who place their offers on our website. It is recognizable to you that this is a third-party offer (marked as "advertising").

If you make use of such an offer, we will transmit your personal data to the relevant partner or cooperation company (e.g. name, function, communication, etc.) whose offer you wish to take advantage of. These partners and cooperation companies are independently responsible for the personal data they receive. Once the data has been transmitted, the data protection provisions of the respective partner apply.

c. Transfer abroad

Under certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to companies abroad as part of order processing. These companies are obliged to protect data to the same extent as we are. The transfer may take place worldwide.

If the level of data protection does not correspond to that of the EEA area, we will carry out a prior risk assessment and contractually ensure that the same level of protection is guaranteed as in the EEA area (e.g. by means of the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or other legally prescribed measures). If our risk assessment is negative, we will take additional technical measures to protect your data. You can access the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses at the following link.

7.4 How long do we store your data?

We only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfill the individual purposes for which the data was collected.

We store contractual data for longer, as we are obliged to do so by law. In particular, we must store business communications, concluded contracts and accounting documents for up to 10 years. If we no longer need such data from you to perform the services, the data will be restricted for further processing and we will only use it for accounting and tax purposes.
