3. Storage of personal data and its use
IPM AG only stores and processes your personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us for a specific purpose (e.g. as part of an enquiry) or if this is necessary for technical reasons or to ensure a smooth connection or convenient use of this website. Your personal data will be processed confidentially and exclusively for the purposes stated below. Processing is carried out in accordance with the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and/or the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), as applicable. References to provisions of the GDPR in this document are also deemed to be references to the corresponding provisions of the DPA.
We only store your data in Switzerland or in the EU.
3.1 Log files
Our website is hosted by Nine Internet Solutions AG (Badenerstrasse 47, 8004 Zurich, CH).
In order to optimise and maintain our website, we log any technical errors that may occur when you visit our website. Furthermore, when you use this website, information is automatically collected that your device's browser transmits to our host provider. These are
This data is collected and stored by our host provider in order to optimise processes and procedures, in particular in connection with the use of our website and the security and stability of the computer system.
We collect and use your personal data in log files to enable needs-based communication with you via our website and in this respect have a legitimate interest in data processing within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
3.2 Personal data for registration:
When you register with us, the following personal data is entered by you via the input mask and stored by us:
3.3 Personal data for profile creation
If you decide to order a personality profile offered on our website, we will collect and store the personal data required to create the profile. The data requested about you is based on the personality profile you have ordered and is entered by you in the online profile creation via input masks and stored by us under your user ID.
The provision of personal data for profiling is voluntary. However, the profiling and/or counselling you have ordered is not possible without this information. You should therefore decide before placing an order whether you want us to collect and store your personal data required for profiling.
4 Processing and use of personal data
4.1 Personal data for registration
The personal data collected during your registration will be used exclusively to create and manage your user account and the associated user relationship.
4.2 Personal data for profile creation
Personal data that we collect and store as part of the creation of your profile will be used exclusively for the creation of your profile and stored under your user account.
Your profile data can only be used to create a team profile or management profile, for example, if you have expressly agreed to this in advance. Only your team leader/supervisor can order the creation of the team profile. Without your express prior consent, your personal data cannot be used to create other group profiles.
The IPM profiles created are also used in anonymised form to continuously improve the IPM system. The profiles used in this context cannot be linked to a specific or identifiable person and therefore no longer constitute personal data subject to data protection (see section 5.3).
If you receive an access code from a third party (e.g. from a coach in the context of a seminar or from your (potential) employer) for the creation of a profile, by using this code you express that the data you have entered and the profile created on this basis can also be viewed by this third party. Accordingly, your use of such a code constitutes your express consent to the disclosure of your data to this third party.
If you have any questions about the type, scope and use of the personal data collected before entering your personal profile data, please send us an e-mail to the following e-mail address: support@ipmag.ch
4.3 Other personal data (log files)
Other personal data is used exclusively for the use and processing of the user relationship, although this data is only stored and processed in anonymised form and therefore cannot be linked to you personally.
5. Deletion/anonymisation of the data
5.1 IPM single user
IPM individual users who do not have an IPM account can request the direct deletion of their personal data for profile creation and the profiles created by sending an email to support@ipmag.ch.
In any case, we will delete the personal data for profile creation and the profiles created if you have not logged into your profile for one year.
5.2 IPM multiple users
IPM multiple users who have access to their IPM account can request direct deletion of the account, their personal data for profile creation and the profiles created by sending an email to support@ipmag.ch.
They can also delete their profiles themselves directly via their account.
In any case, we will delete the personal data for profile creation and the profiles created one year after termination of the license agreement.
The deletion of the user account also leads to the deletion of the data stored in relation to this account, insofar as this is not required for the assertion of claims, in particular for invoicing.
5.3 Anonymised profiles
The deletion of the profiles mentioned in sections 5.1 and 5.2 is carried out in such a way that the assignment of the profiles to the creator and other persons involved (e.g. team) is irretrievably deleted. The profiles anonymised in this way no longer contain any data that would allow anyone to assign them to a specific or identifiable natural person and therefore no longer constitute personal data subject to data protection; they are used by us for an unlimited period of time for the further development of the IPM system.
6. Disclosure to third parties:
We process and use your personal data only for the purposes described here. We will only pass on your personal data to third parties in the following exceptional cases:
Whenever we disclose your personal data to third parties to the extent described above, we ensure that it is used in accordance with the relevant data protection laws and this Privacy Policy
