PRIVACY POLICY
Vito Schnabel Gallery (“we”, “us” or similar pronouns) is the operator of the website. We are committed to protecting your privacy. Your trust is important to us, which is why we take the protection of data seriously and ensure appropriate security. In particular, keeping your information secure means that we will never sell ads. In this privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”), you can read about the information we collect from you when you visit http://www.vitoschnabel.com (“Website”) and how we use it. If you have any questions or concerns, you can email us at info@vitoschnabel.com.
1. What information do we collect about you when you visit our website?
When you visit our Website, our servers temporarily store each access in a log file. The following technical data is collected without your intervention and stored by us until automated deletion, as in principle with every connection to a web server:
- the IP address of the requesting computer;
- the operating system of your computer;
- the browser you are using (type, version and language);
- name of the IP address range;
- the date and time of the server request;
- the web page from which access was made (referrer URL), possibly with the search terms used; and
- the status code (for example, error message, debug information).
The collection and processing of these data are carried out for the purpose of enabling the use of our website (establishing a connection), ensuring system security and stability over the long term and optimising our internet presence as well as for internal statistical purposes. It is within our legitimate interest to process such data to offer you a well-functioning website. The IP address will also be used together with the other data in the event of attacks on the network infrastructure or other unauthorised or abusive use of the website to identify offenders in connection with civil or criminal proceedings. The processing of this data is in our legitimate interest to track your visit to our website and to improve the website accordingly.
2. What data do we collect when you subscribe to our newsletter?
You can subscribe to our newsletter in order to be informed about news and current offers. For this we need the following information:
- e-mail address
For you to be subscribed to our newsletter, we use "double-opt-in" to ensure you are the owner of the email address that has been entered. We only use this data for the delivery of our newsletter if you have agreed to receive it. You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time via a link in each respective e-mail. You can also send us a message to info@vitoschnabel.com so that we can delete you from our mailing list. We will send you our newsletter based on your consent. To send you our newsletter in a professional manner, we use the newsletter solution of Mailchimp, which is offered by the Rocket Science Group LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA (“Mailchimp”). If you sign up for our newsletter, which is administered through Mailchimp, or if you register for our Website, we will store some of your information, including your email address, IP address and certain information about the links you click within the emails we send you, on a Mailchimp server. It may be that Mailchimp processes your data from the USA. Therefore, we have implemented safeguards such as contractual guarantees to maintain an adequate level of data protection. Neither we nor Mailchimp will ever sell your email address or share it with any other party, unless we are legally compelled to do so. If you contact Mailchimp directly regarding your subscription to our newsletter, Mailchimp may contact you directly; otherwise, Mailchimp will never contact you. Only authorized Mailchimp employees have access to our subscriber list. You are always free to unsubscribe from our newsletter, but as long as you are registered with us we may use Mailchimp to send you information about our activities.
3. How we use your information?
We use your Information only to inform you about our activities. We do not share your information with third parties except when it’s necessary to complete the functions of our Website or as otherwise disclosed on this Privacy Policy (e.g. Mailchimp). When you email us, we will use your email address only for the purpose of responding to you and for no other purpose. Sometimes we may use anonymous information about your use of our Website in combination with other users’ usage to make decisions about the contents and design of the Website. We may disclose your information in response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or to defend against legal claims.
4. Will my data be shared with third parties?
We only disclose your personal data to other third parties if you have expressly consented, if there is a legal obligation to do so or if this is necessary to enforce our rights, in particular, to enforce claims arising from the contractual relationship. In addition, we disclose your data to third parties insofar as this is necessary for the use of the website and the execution of contracts (also outside the Website), namely the processing of your orders.
5. Do we transfer your data abroad?
Our Services are hosted in the USA. We are entitled to transfer your personal data to third parties (contracted service providers) abroad for the purpose of the data processing described in this Privacy Policy. These are bound to protect data to the same extent as we are. If the level of data protection in a country does not correspond to that in Switzerland, we will contractually ensure that the protection of your personal data always corresponds to that in Switzerland. Specifically, this applies to data transfers to the USA, which from the point of view of Switzerland does not have an adequate level of data protection. We will make sure that we implement guarantees and safeguards to ensure an appropriate level of data protection. To do so we will make use of the guarantees recognised as sufficient to ensure an adequate level of data protection in Switzerland.
6. What are your rights on your information?
You have a right to request information about the personal data that we store about you. In addition, you have a right to correct incorrect data and a right to request deletion of your personal data, insofar as there is no legal obligation to retain such data and no legal basis for further processing the existing data. If neither the accuracy nor the inaccuracy of the personal data can be determined, you may also request for a note that indicates your objection to be added to the personal data. You also have a right to request the data that you have provided to us (right to data portability). Upon request, we will transfer your data to a third party of your choice. You have a right to receive the data in a common file format. In many countries, you also have the right to file a complaint with the relevant data protection authority if you have concerns about how we process your data. These rights depend on the applicable data protection legislation and may be either more limited or more comprehensive.
7. How we keep your information safe?
We use suitable technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data stored with us against manipulation, partial or complete loss and against unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
8. How long do we keep your information?
We process and store your personal data only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by laws or regulations to which we are subject to. The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfilment of the contract or the initiation of a contract or if we do no longer have a legitimate interest to store the data for a longer period of time.
9. Can you complain about us?
You have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority at any time.
10. Which law do we apply?
This Privacy Policy and the contracts concluded on the basis of or in connection with this Privacy Policy are subject to Swiss law, unless the law of another country is mandatory. The place of jurisdiction shall be the registered office of Vito Schnabel Gallery GmbH in St. Moritz, unless another place of jurisdiction is mandatory.
11. May we change this Privacy Policy?
Should individual parts of this privacy policy be invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the rest of the privacy policy. The invalid part of this privacy policy shall be replaced in such a way that it comes as close as possible to the economically intended purpose of the invalid part. Due to the further development of our website and offers or changes to the statutory requirements, it may become necessary to amend this privacy policy. The most current privacy policy is published on our website.
