Privacy Policy for Our Road Travel Awareness Portal
This Privacy Policy describes how our online platform, dedicated to providing free advice for navigating Swiss toll infrastructure, handles personal data. Our commitment is to ensure you travel worry-free, not just on Swiss roads but also with your personal information. We operate solely as an information portal and do not sell any products or services directly.
Information We Collect and Why We Collect It
As our service is purely informational and we do not feature user accounts, forums, or e-commerce functionalities, the personal data we collect is minimal.
- Usage Data: We may collect anonymized information about how our online platform is accessed and used ("Usage Data"). This Usage Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol address (e.g., IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our site that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers, and other diagnostic data. This data is collected to improve the usability and performance of our online platform and is not linked to any identifiable individual.
- Cookies and Tracking Technologies: We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our site and hold certain information. Cookies are files with a small amount of data which may include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device. Other tracking technologies also used are beacons, tags, and scripts to collect and track information and to improve and analyze our service. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our service.
How We Use Your Data
The data collected through our site is used solely to:
- Provide and maintain our service.
- Monitor the usage of our service.
- Improve the usability and functionality of our online platform.
Data Retention and Security
We retain anonymized Usage Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your Usage Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Your Data Protection Rights Under GDPR
Given that we primarily collect anonymized usage data and do not process personal data for identification purposes, the direct applicability of certain GDPR rights may be limited. However, we uphold the principles of GDPR and Swiss data protection laws. As our site is informational and does not process identifiable personal data, there are generally no "personal data" processing activities to which specific rights like access, rectification, erasure, restriction, or data portability would apply for individual users. Cookies can be managed via your browser settings as described above.
Third-Party Websites and Services
Our online platform may contain links to other sites that are not operated by us, such as official Swiss government sites or toll payment platforms. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
