Data protection

Data protection

This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you use or purchase something from noch-etwas.com (the "Website").

We generally collect data in accordance with the applicable laws, in particular the Swiss Data Protection Act, and in accordance with the principle of necessity. We only collect as much information about you as we actually need. We do not pass your data on to third parties unless this is necessary to fulfil the purpose (e.g. for shipping to the shipping service provider). We do not sell your data. We only store your data for as long as necessary and as required by law.

As already mentioned in the terms of use, this website, our web shop and all other offers are aimed exclusively at a Swiss audience or persons who have their permanent residence in Switzerland, which means that only Swiss law applies.
