data protection

We, Wings of World, 6020 Emenbrücke], operate the website [URL] [ alternatively: and the associated online shop] and are the provider of the [selection: products or services] offered on the website. We are therefore considered responsible for the collection, use and processing of your data.

Below we will show you whether and how we process your data:

data processing, storage, deletion

We only process personal data that we collect directly via our website, the associated applications, via external platforms, via so-called "landing pages" or as part of the business relationship with our customers and other business partners. Processing only takes place if there is an explicit consent or a legal basis, for example for contract processing, to fulfill legal obligations or due to legitimate interests on our part.

Within the scope of the consent you have given, we will only process your data within the limits of this consent, unless one of the following legal bases applies. We expressly point out that you can revoke your consent at any time, whereby any - lawful - processing that has already taken place will not be affected by the revocation.

The following legal bases are possible:

  • consent of the data subject;

  • Performance of the contract with the data subject as a contracting party or necessary pre-contractual measures at the request of the data subject;

  • Fulfillment of necessary legal obligations of our company;

  • performance or exercise of a task in the public interest;

  • Legitimate interests of our company, unless the interests of the data subject or their fundamental rights prevail.

We delete personal data as soon as the purpose for which it was collected has been fulfilled and there is no longer any need for it to be stored. However, there are cases in which we are legally obliged to store data for a longer period of time. This particularly applies to Swiss or European legislators' regulations in areas such as contract and tax law and commercial accounting. For example, business documents, contracts and accounting records must be kept for a period of 10 years. Personal data that is stored exclusively for legal reasons and is no longer required to provide our services is blocked and used solely for accounting and tax purposes.

disclosure to third parties

The use of third-party services may be required as part of order processing. It may be necessary to pass on data to external service providers for the contractual provision of services. The legal basis for this data transfer corresponds to that of lawful processing and is explained in more detail in the previous section. We ensure through contractual agreements that the third parties commissioned to process the data comply with data protection regulations. In addition, in certain cases we may be required by official or court orders to release data to government agencies or third parties.
