Privacy Policy

Taxi-com.ch is a service from Shakir Almusawi in Switzerland. With this privacy policy we inform about the processing of personal data in connection with our offers.

Our service is subject to the Swiss data protection law as well as any applicable foreign data protection law such as (that of the European Union (EU) with) the Data Protection Basic Regulation (DSGVO). The EU approves of the adequate data protection which the Swiss data protection law guarantees.

1. Processing of personal data

1.1 Personal data is all information relating to a specific or identifiable person. A data subject is a person about whom personal data is processed. Processing includes any handling of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular the storage, disclosure, procurement, deletion, storage, alteration, destruction and use of personal data. 

1.2 We process the personal data necessary to provide our services effectively and in a user-friendly manner as well as permanently, securely and reliably.

1.3 In principle, we process personal data only with the consent of the data subject, unless the processing is permissible for other reasons, for example to fulfil a contract with the data subject and for corresponding pre-contractual measures to protect our overriding legitimate interests, because the processing is apparent from the circumstances or after prior information. In this context we process, in particular, information which a person himself provides when making contact - for example by letter post, e-mail, contact form, telephone or social media.

1.4 We process personal data for the duration necessary of the purpose or purposes in question. In case longer-term storage becomes necessary, we restrict the processing according to the legal and other obligations we are subject to. 

1.5 Third parties may process personal data - also abroad. Such order processors process personal data on our behalf. We may further process personal data with the help of third parties - also abroad. In each case, we ensure that all third parties guarantee adequate data protection.

1.6 We are present on social media and other online platforms in order to communicate withpersons interested in our services and to inform them. The General Terms and Conditions (GTC), data protection declarations and other provisions of the respective operators apply in each case.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data 

2.1 We process personal data in accordance with the Swiss data protection law, in particular the Data Protection Act (DSG).  

2.2 To the extent that the DSGVO is applicable, we process personal data in accordance with the following legal principles:

§ Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO for the processing of personal data with the consent of the data subject.

§ Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the processing of personal data required for the fulfilment of a contract with the data subject and for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

§ Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO for the processing of personal data required to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject under any applicable EU law or under any applicable law of a country in which the DSGVO is fully or partially applicable.

§ Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d DSGVO for the necessary processing of personal data to protect vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.

§ Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO for the necessary processing of personal data to protect the legitimate interests of us or third parties, unless the fundamental freedoms, rights and interests of the data subject prevail. Legitimate interests are our economic interest in being able to provide and advertise the offer, information security and protection against misuse and unauthorised use, the enforcement of our own legal claims and compliance with the Swiss law.
