In certain cases, we supplement personal data with information that we have gathered from publicly available sources (such as the internet).

We collect and process the data that you send us when using the website or using the contact form, when sending expressions of interest, purchase contracts (such as SAFT agreements) regarding the issuance or sale of cryptographic tokens or coins (called INDU token) or the purchase of goods, products or services. In addition, to the extent necessary for the provision of our service or for the examination of your documents and the intended acquisition of INDU tokens or the purchase of goods, products or services, we process personal data that we legitimately obtain from publicly accessible sources (e.g., land registers, commercial and association registers, press, internet) or that are legitimately transmitted to us by third parties (e.g. in connection with KYC audits).

Relevant personal data are in particular personal details (name, address, email address, telephone number, fax number,) identification data (e.g., ID card data). In addition, this may also be data from the fulfilment of our contractual obligations, possibly information about your financial situation (e.g., origin of assets) and other data comparable with the aforementioned categories.

For example, we collect personal data under the following circumstances:

  • You send us information or documents, for example in connection with the sale of cryptographic token or coins;
  • you receive a newsletter or other advertisement about our services;
  • you communicate with us via telephone, fax, email, voicemail, text messaging (SMS), picture messaging (MMS), video messaging, instant messaging etc.;
  • you use or communicate with us or third parties via our website;
  • your mobile device connects to the WLAN provided by us in our business premises;
  • you get in contact with us at special occasions such as events, advertising events, etc.

Which personal data do we collect?
Within the scope described above, we collect in particular the following personal data (if provided to us):

Data regarding a person: name and first name(s) (given names and names chosen in Metaverses or in other virtual environments); date of birth; home address; citizenship(s); invoice address and account information; wallet address(es); telephone number(s); email address(es); as well as other information necessary for the execution of the agreement made with you, in particular information in connection with potential KYC checks by an external service provider (e.g. documents on the origin of the funds, utility bills for verification of residence).

  • Communications via telephone, fax, email, voicemail, text messaging (SMS), picture messaging (MMS), video messaging, instant messaging etc.

For which purposes do we process personal data?
We process personal data for various purposes. These purposes can be structured in different groups. In particular, we may process all or some of the personal data for one or more of the following purposes:
  1. For the fulfilment of contractual obligations
    • The processing of data takes place for the effective and proper issuance or sale of INDU tokens or the sale of goods, products or services. It can also be used to carry out precontractual measures that are necessary at the request of interested parties, such as for KYC tests.
  2. In the context of a balancing of interests
    • To the extent necessary to safeguard our legitimate interests, we also process your data beyond the actual fulfilment of the contract. These can be, for example:
    • prevention and investigation of money laundering and criminal offences,
    • Compliance with and improvement of IT security,
    • business management measures,
    • Marketing purposes (e.g. advertising measures, market research)
    • Assertion of legal claims and defense of legal interests.
  3. On the basis of the consent of contractual partners or interested parties
    • If a contractual partner or interested party has given his consent to the processing of personal data for certain purposes, the processing on the basis of the consent is lawful. The contractual partner or interested party can revoke this consent at any time for the future.
  4. Due to legal requirements
    • Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. (1) sentence 1 lit.c) GDPR serves as the legal basis. These may be, for example, obligations under the Swiss Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA). Data is used, for example, for risk analysis, fraud and money laundering prevention, control and reporting obligations, compliance, auditing, etc.

How long do we keep the data?
We process and retain your personal data as long as required for the performance of our contractual obligations and compliance with legal obligations or other purposes pursued with the processing, i.e. for the duration of the entire business relationship (from the initiation, during the performance of the contract until it is terminated) as well as beyond this duration in accordance with legal retention and documentation obligations. Personal data may be retained for the period during which claims can be asserted against our company (i.d. particularly during legal prescription periods) or insofar as we are otherwise legally obliged to do so or if legitimate business interests require further retention (e.g., for evidence and documentation purposes). As soon as your personal data is no longer required for the above-mentioned purposes, it will be deleted or anonymized, as far as possible. In general, shorter retention periods, of no more than twelve months, apply for operational data (e.g., system logs).

How do we protect personal data?
We have technical and organizational security procedures to maintain the security of personal data and to protect personal data against unauthorized or illegal processing and/or against unintentional loss, modification, disclosure or unauthorized access.

Nevertheless, you should always be aware that the transmission of data over the internet and other electronic means entails certain security risks, and that we cannot give any guarantee for the security of data that are transmitted in this way.

Insecure HTTP requests are usually redirected to use HTTPS. HTTPS requests are encrypted using SSL/TLS technology. Data transmitted over SSL/TLS encrypted connections cannot be read by third parties.

To whom may we disclose personal data?
In the context of our business activities and in line with the purposes of the data processing, we may transfer data to third parties (such as service providers and suppliers), insofar as such a transfer is permitted and we deem it appropriate, in order for them to process data for us or, as the case may be, their own purposes. We may also disclose personal data if we consider this as necessary to comply with the applicable laws and regulations, in court proceedings, at the request of the competent courts and authorities, or for the fulfillment of other legal obligations or in order to protect and defend our rights and our property respectively.

Certain data recipients may be within Switzerland but they may be located in any country worldwide. In particular, data may be transferred to countries, in which our clients, their affiliates, opposing parties or business partners are located as well as countries in which service providers (such as experts, foreign lawyers and law firms etc.) are located or where our clients and affiliate companies are involved in legal proceedings. If we transfer data to a country without adequate legal data protection, we ensure an appropriate level of protection as legally required by way of using appropriate contracts (in particular on the basis of the standard contract clauses of the European Commission) or binding corporate rules or we rely on the statutory exceptions of consent, performance of contracts, the establishment, exercise or enforcement of legal claims, overriding public interests, published personal data or because it is necessary to protect the integrity of the persons concerned. However, we reserve the right to redact copies for data protection reasons, reasons of secrecy or to produces excerpts only.
