Types of Data Collected and Methods of Collection
BTI collects data to operate effectively and provide you with the best experience when using our Websites and services. We use a third-party service to collect and evaluate standard internet log information and details of visitor behavior patterns. The information collected includes, but is not limited to traffic and location data, weblogs, as well as the Website resources that you access. We also obtain some of the data by the use of Cookies. You can read about our Cookies policy below.
The user data is transmitted or generated automatically (e.g. date and time a service was used, previous and current page called up, IP address, data relating to the browser used, device code, current location, if such information is released, etc.). This also includes interaction data if it’s accessible without the installation of additional programs on the computer (e.g. mouse movements and clicks or keyboard strokes on the Website).
Purpose of Processing
The purpose of collecting data from our Website (IP address, location, user preferences, etc.) is to further understand what our current and potential clients are interested in. This type of data processing is done to find out, for example, the number of visitors that have indicated greater interests in various parts of the Website. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone.
The Website provides channels for communication with BTI. If a user decides to call and speak to a BTI employee through these channels, we collect the data exchanged, including your contact details and the metadata of the communication.
Legal Basis for Processing
BTI is headquartered in Switzerland and complies with the applicable Swiss data protection laws, in particular the Swiss Data Protection Act (Schweizerisches Datenschutzgesetz, DSG).
In regard to information collected via email or phone number provided on the Website, BTI may process the data based on its legitimate business interests, in particular in pursuing the purpose set out above. Specifically, communicating with the individuals about the services we offer, potential employment opportunities, and/or already existent orders. BTI’s legitimate business interests are in furtherance of our efforts to improve our business practices and provide the most necessary, viable, and adequate services to our current and future clients.
Transfer of Data
The collected data from the Website is solely used by BTI and is only disclosed to third-parties (e.g., IT providers and other service providers) to the extent such transfer is compliant with applicable laws and BTI deem it appropriate for such third-parties to process data.
Our service providers have implemented the appropriate technical and organizational measures to prevent unauthorized and otherwise unwarranted processing. Such measures are subject to regular control and are amended when necessary. This obligation also applies to third parties charged with operating the systems.
Time Period
The data that is processed by BTI is stored on its servers in Switzerland for the length needed to achieve BTI’s legitimate business interest. If the data belongs to BTI’s new or existent client, it will be stored as long as the client relationship exists as well as beyond this duration in accordance with legal retention and documentation obligations. After that, BTI may continue to store the data but since the purposes have changed, explicit consent from the data subject is requested.
