Kryzalone is committed to processing personal data transmitted through this website in compliance with the applicable legal framework and with the utmost transparency.
// 01 Data controller
The controller responsible for the processing described in this policy is Cristhofer Ortiz, who operates the sole proprietorship under the trading name Kryzalone, Rue du Port-Franc 22, 1003 Lausanne, Switzerland. He can be contacted at c.ortiz@kryzalone.com or on 079 918 18 08.
// 02 Data processed
Depending on how you use Kryzalone’s website and services, the following categories of data may be processed:
identity, company, postal address and contact details, such as an email address or telephone number when available;
requests, messages, projects, tasks, appointments, quotations, invoices and documents that you choose to transmit;
proof of acceptance of a quotation: date and time, version of the quotation and terms and conditions, name of the signatory, as well as technical data such as the IP address and browser;
billing and payment information: amount, currency, payment schedule, status, transaction identifiers and reconciliation information received from the payment provider;
messages sent to the chatbot and any contact details communicated during the exchange;
technical and security data: connection logs, IP address, device, browser, errors and actions required to protect the service.
Full card details, in particular the card number and security code, are entered directly in Stripe’s secure environment. Kryzalone neither receives nor stores them.
// 03 Purposes
This data is processed to the extent necessary to:
respond to requests and prepare a proposal;
manage clients, projects, appointments, communications and services;
create, transmit, accept and retain quotations, terms and conditions, invoices and contractual evidence;
collect and reconcile a payment in full, a deposit or an instalment, prevent fraud and process refunds or disputes;
comply with accounting, tax and legal obligations;
ensure security, diagnose errors and improve the reliability of the service.
Kryzalone does not sell personal data or disclose it to third parties for their own commercial prospecting.
// 04 Grounds and principles of processing
Processing is carried out in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP). Where the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies, processing is based, as appropriate, on requested pre-contractual measures, performance of a contract, a legal obligation, Kryzalone’s legitimate interests in managing and securing its business, or consent where required.
Only data that is appropriate and necessary for a specified purpose is processed. Where processing is based on consent, an authorisation that has been given may be withdrawn for the future without affecting processing that was already lawful.
// 05 Recipients
Data is accessible to Kryzalone and, only to the extent necessary for their assignment, to the following technical service providers:
Infomaniak, for the website’s main hosting and certain messaging services;
Cloudflare, for delivery, security and application components of the website and back office;
Stripe, when you use online payment. Stripe processes the means of payment in accordance with its own privacy policy;
OpenAI, when you choose to use a chatbot or assistance feature that transmits to it the content required for the response;
WhatsApp/Meta, when you choose this channel or open a WhatsApp link, in accordance with that platform’s terms.
Data may also be disclosed to a professional adviser, a bank, an authority or a court where this is necessary to defend a right or required by law. Messages sent to the chatbot must not contain sensitive data or secrets that are not necessary for the request.
// 06 Processing and transfers abroad
Depending on the service used, data may be processed in Switzerland, the European Economic Area (EEA), the United States or other countries in which a service provider, affiliated company or authorised processor actually provides the service. The possible destinations known on the date of this policy include:
Infomaniak — Switzerland: data entrusted to its hosting infrastructure is stated to be stored and hosted in its data centres in Switzerland. See its data protection commitments;
Cloudflare — global network, including the EEA and the United States: technical, security and delivery data may be processed in countries where Cloudflare and its providers operate. Cloudflare states, in particular, that it relies on the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework for certain transfers from Switzerland to certified U.S. organisations and on standard contractual clauses for other international transfers. See its privacy policy;
Stripe — EEA, United Kingdom, United States and other countries depending on the payment services: data required for payment, fraud prevention and compliance with regulatory obligations may be processed by Stripe entities, their providers or the relevant financial partners in several countries. See the Stripe Privacy Center;
OpenAI — EEA, United States and other countries depending on the product and its processors: for services intended for Swiss customers, an entity based in Ireland may be involved, with possible transfers to affiliated companies or processors located in particular in the United States, Switzerland or other countries specified for the relevant service. See the official OpenAI sub-processor list;
WhatsApp/Meta — EEA, United States and, depending on the service, United Kingdom, Israel, Singapore or other countries: opening WhatsApp and communications made on that platform are subject to its global infrastructure. WhatsApp states, in particular, that it uses entities and data centres in the United States as well as providers or affiliated companies in several countries. See its privacy policy for the European Region.
This list describes possible destinations and does not imply that each provider processes every category of data in every country mentioned. The actual destination depends in particular on the product activated, the contracting entity, technical routing, financial partners and the current list of processors.
Where data is disclosed from Switzerland to another country, the applicable basis for the transfer must be determined for the processing concerned:
an adequacy decision by the Swiss Federal Council listed in Annex 1 to the Data Protection Ordinance; for the United States, this adequacy applies only to organisations certified under the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework;
in the absence of such a decision, appropriate safeguards, including the European Union’s standard contractual clauses recognised by the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), with the adaptations required under Swiss law and, where the transfer assessment requires it, supplementary measures;
exceptionally, a derogation provided for by Swiss law where its strict conditions are met, for example performance of a contract, explicit consent in the case provided for by law, or the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal claim.
Providers’ certifications, processors and processing locations may change. Further information about a specific transfer and the applicable safeguards may be requested from Kryzalone. The Swiss framework is presented by the FDPIC.
// 07 Retention period
Requests that are not followed up are generally retained for up to 12 months after the last exchange. Operational data is retained for the duration of the contractual relationship and then for as long as reasonably necessary to manage warranties, disputes and legal obligations. Contractual documents, invoices and payment records subject to accounting obligations are generally retained for ten years. Technical logs are retained for a period proportionate to security and diagnostic needs.
At the end of the applicable period, data is deleted or anonymised unless longer retention is required by law or necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal claim.
// 08 Your rights
Within the limits and subject to the conditions of applicable law, you may in particular request:
access to your personal data and information about its processing;
rectification of inaccurate data;
erasure or restriction of processing where no overriding reason justifies its continuation;
delivery or transmission of certain data in a commonly used electronic format where the legal conditions for portability are met;
objection to certain processing or withdrawal of consent for the future.
Reasonable identity verification may be requested. Certain documents must be retained despite a request for erasure because of a legal obligation or the defence of a right. You may also contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) and, where the GDPR applies, the competent supervisory authority.
// 09 Cookies and local storage
The website does not currently use advertising cookies. Cookies or strictly necessary storage mechanisms may be used for security, authentication, temporary session retention or chatbot state. When you access payment services, Stripe may use its own cookies required for security and fraud prevention.
To improve the website, Kryzalone counts page views and clicks on contact, quotation, telephone and email buttons. Statistics are aggregated by day, page, approximate country, device category and referral channel. They contain no IP address, personal contact details, visitor identifier or URL parameters. No analytics cookie or individual browsing history is created. Aggregated counts are retained for no more than 400 days.

Audience measurement is allowed in this browser.
// 10 Security
Kryzalone implements technical and organisational measures proportionate to the risks in order to protect data against loss, alteration, unauthorised access and disclosure. Since no system can guarantee absolute security, any confirmed incident is handled in accordance with the applicable obligations.
// 11 Automated assistance
Automation and artificial intelligence tools may help prepare a response or carry out a requested task. They do not make decisions on their own that produce significant legal effects concerning you. Quotations, prices and contractual commitments remain subject to human validation or your explicit acceptance.
