We only pass on your data to service providers who need it for the purpose concerned and who are bound by contract:

  • Swiss Post (Switzerland): delivery of orders;
  • Automattic / Jetpack (United States): website visitor statistics;
  • Google (United States): Google Tag, to measure the effect of our online advertisements (Google Ads);
  • the authorities, where required by law.

Some providers are located outside Switzerland, in particular in the United States. In that case, the disclosure is based on appropriate safeguards (standard contractual clauses or certification under the data protection framework recognised by Switzerland).

5. Retention period

We keep your data for as long as necessary for each purpose: accounting documents (orders, invoices) for 10 years (art. 958f of the Swiss Code of Obligations); your customer account for as long as it is active, then until it is deleted on request; the newsletter until you unsubscribe; connection logs for a limited period set by the host. After these periods, your data is deleted or anonymised.

6. Cookies and trackers

A cookie is a small file stored on your device. We use:

  • technical cookies necessary for the operation of the website (basket, login session, language, security);
  • payment cookies set by our providers when you place an order (Stripe, WooPayments, TWINT);
  • audience measurement of our visits (Jetpack Stats, Automattic) to understand how the website is used and to improve it;
  • an advertising tracker (Google Tag, Google Ads) that allows Google to measure the effect of our advertisements and may, in that context, use cookies and send Google information about your visit; you can refuse it in your browser settings and in Google’s ad settings (adssettings.google.com);
  • third-party content (for example a YouTube video or a link to our Facebook and Instagram pages): by opening it, you are subject to the policy of the third party concerned.

You can refuse or delete cookies in your browser settings; some functions of the website (basket, account) may then stop working.

7. Newsletter

If you subscribe, we use your e-mail address to send you our news and offers. The newsletter is sent by Infomaniak (Switzerland). You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in each message, or by writing to info@lcmr.ch.

Write to La Cave Montreux Riviera – Webmaster, info@lcmr.ch; we may ask for proof of identity in case of doubt. Some data must be kept despite your request (in particular for accounting purposes).

You can also contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), www.edoeb.admin.ch.
