Privacy Policy

brückenbauer GmbH, Dachsweg 12, 3075 Rüfenacht BE, Switzerland is responsible for the processing described in this policy. The company can be contacted at bus.dev@brueckenbauer-gmbh.ch for privacy and data protection matters.

Processing is designed to follow the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation for visitors, contacts, and business partners located in the European Economic Area.

We may process business contact details, company details, telephone number, email address, inquiry content, RFQ information, product or application interests, project notes, language preference, timestamps, technical log data, and communication metadata.

We do not request special categories of personal data through the website and ask users not to submit confidential personal information that is not required for a business inquiry.

Personal data is processed to respond to inquiries, evaluate technical and commercial requirements, prepare quotations, coordinate supplier or partner communication, operate and secure the website, keep business records, and comply with legal obligations.

Depending on the context, the legal basis is pre-contractual or contractual necessity, legitimate business interests, compliance with legal obligations, or consent where a consent-based service is introduced.

If a visitor accepts analytics, Google Analytics 4 is used to understand aggregate visits, approximate visitor countries, traffic sources, popular pages, and successful Contact or RFQ submissions. The legal basis is consent, and Google Analytics remains disabled until that consent is given.

Analytics data may be processed by Google as a service provider and may involve international processing subject to Google's applicable contractual and transfer safeguards. Visitors can withdraw or change consent at any time through Cookie Settings in the footer.

Data may be shared with internal staff, email and hosting providers, IT service providers, logistics or technical partners, and professional advisers where this is necessary for the inquiry or a lawful business purpose.

brückenbauer GmbH does not sell personal data. Processors are expected to handle data only under appropriate contractual, technical, and organizational safeguards.

If service providers or project partners process data outside Switzerland, the EEA, or countries recognized as providing adequate protection, appropriate safeguards such as contractual protections or recognized transfer mechanisms are used where required.

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary for the relevant business purpose, legal retention duties, dispute prevention, security, and audit needs. Inquiry and RFQ records may be kept for the duration needed to manage the project and related commercial documentation.

Depending on applicable law, individuals may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, objection to processing, withdrawal of consent, and information about how their data is used.

Requests can be sent to bus.dev@brueckenbauer-gmbh.ch. Individuals may also contact the competent supervisory authority, including the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner where applicable.

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, and alteration. No solely automated decision-making with legal or similarly significant effects is used through this website.

Contact and RFQ forms may use Cloudflare Turnstile or equivalent bot-protection services to verify that a submission is legitimate and to protect the website from automated abuse.

This policy may be updated when website functionality, service providers, legal requirements, or business processes change. The version date above identifies the current version.
