Privacy Policy

In this privacy policy, we, Naturlicht GmbH (hereinafter referred to as we or us), explain how we collect and process personal data. This is not an exhaustive description; other privacy policies [or general terms and conditions, participation terms, and similar documents] may govern specific matters. Personal data refers to all information related to an identified or identifiable individual.

The protection of your data is important to us. Rest assured, we handle it with great care. Primarily, we collect data for technical reasons, to be able to enter into contracts with you, and to better understand your customer behavior. The latter seems indispensable in the initial phase of establishing our company in a new market with such a complex and sensitive topic, as it is our sincere goal to design our methods and offerings realistically and according to your needs.

If you provide us with personal data of other persons (e.g., family members, employees), please ensure that these persons are aware of this privacy policy and only share their personal data with us if you are authorized to do so and the data is correct.

This privacy policy is designed to comply with the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), the Swiss Data Protection Act ("FADP"), and the revised Swiss Data Protection Act ("revFADP"). However, the applicability of these laws depends on the specific case.
