  • What technologies do we use and how do we use them?
    • We use the following technologies as follows:
    • Cookies
      • Cookies are used on the OneLog website. A cookie is a small text file that is saved on your device when you use OneLog.
      Cookies can be split into session cookies and persistent cookies.
      • Session cookies can be used to track the websites you have visited and the options you have used. A session cookie is only saved for the duration of your online visit, i.e. during a single Internet session. The session ends and the cookie is deleted when you close your web browser.
      • Among other things, persistent cookies can be used to recognise you again on a subsequent visit and to recognise your preferences such as your reading preferences, for example. A persistent cookie is stored for longer than a single session.
      Cookies can also be split into functional and non-functional cookies. OneLog AG uses both functional and non-functional cookies on the OneLog website:
      • Functional cookies are necessary to ensure the functionality of websites or services.
      • Non-functional cookies are not absolutely necessary for website functionality. This type of cookie is used to collect and analyse data on website usage or the use of mobile applications (language preferences, duration of a user session, etc.).
      At OneLog, we use the following Google services to analyse your surfing behaviour:
      The OneLog website uses Google Analytics, which is a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Use includes the ‘Universal Analytics’ operating mode. If a user is logged in to a Google service, this makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus to analyse a user’s activities across different devices. Google Analytics uses cookies. The information generated by the cookies about your use of our website may be sent to a Google server in the US and saved there. However, IP addresses are anonymised beforehand using IP anonymisation. The anonymised IP address sent by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. Google uses this information to evaluate your use of our website and to compile reports on website activity on our behalf, in addition to providing us with other services relating to website activity and Internet use.
      You can find more information on the terms of use and data protection at the download page for the browser add-on to disable Google AnalyticsYou can also prevent cookies from being saved by changing your browser software settings.
      We also use Google Tag Manager to integrate Google analysis and marketing services into our website and to manage them. Google Tag Manager is a solution that you can use to manage website tags via an interface. The actual tool that implements tags is a cookie-free domain and does not collect any personal data. However, the tool enables other tags which may collect data. Google Tag Manager itself does not have access to this data. If tags have been disabled at domain or cookie level, this will remain in place for all tracking tags implemented using Google Tag Manager.
      You can find more information about Google Tag Manager in the Google Tag Manager Use Policy
      We use reCaptcha. on our website. ReCaptcha is an acronym for ‘completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart’. It is a test designed to distinguish people from machines/robot programs, or ‘bots’ for short. reCAPTCHA is a service that tries to determine whether a certain action on the internet is being carried out by a human being or by a computer program. reCAPTCHA is used as part of double opt-in when subscribing to the newsletter.
      You can find more information about data processing and information on data protection by reCAPTCHA at:Privacy policy – Privacy policy & terms of use – Google
      We also use the service Sentry (Sentry, 1501 Mariposa St #408, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA) to improve the technical stability of our service by monitoring system stability and identifying code errors. Sentry serves these purposes alone and does not evaluate any data for advertising purposes. User data, such as information about the device or the time of the error, is collected anonymously and used in a non-personal way before being erased.
      You can find more information about this in Sentry’s privacy policy: Application monitoring and error tracking software | Sentry.

However, you are free to change your browser settings so that cookies are generally rejected by selecting ‘do not accept cookies’ in your browser settings, or by being asked first before your browser accepts a cookie from a website you visit. You also have the option of deleting cookies on your computer or mobile device by using the relevant browser feature. Please be aware that you must disable or delete cookies on all of your devices.

Otherwise, you will be recognised as a new user and your data will be collected again. Please also be aware that you must disable cookies on all of your devices.

    • Log files
      • When using OneLog, the web servers register non-personal usage data – known as ‘log files’. Log files provide information on your IP address, the operating system used, the websites you have visited, interactions on the websites, your browser type and version, the date, time and the requested file. This information is technically necessary in order to correctly provide you with the website content requested and is mandatory when using the Internet. Such anonymous data is stored separately from any personal data you may have provided and thus does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you personally.
      Such non-personal usage data is statistically evaluated by us in order to optimise our website and the technology behind it, to identify trends and to tailor OneLog to your needs as best as possible.
  • How and when is your data shared?
    • When you register with an affiliated company for a product for the first time, your personal data will be shared with that company and processed for the purposes mentioned above (section 5.1.2).
    Your personal data may also be shared with third parties outside OneLog AG who provide technical or organisational services on behalf of OneLog AG where we need such services to fulfil the above-mentioned purposes or to carry out general business activities. We contractually oblige these service providers to process your personal data exclusively on our behalf as per our specifications and to ensure the protection of your personal data by implementing appropriate technical or organisational security measures.
    We share your data with the following categories of recipients:
    • affiliated companies;
    • IT service providers;
    • hosting partners;
    • providers to which we have outsourced certain support services such as translation work or document reviews;
    • third parties who have been commissioned within the scope of services we offer our customers with their prior consent, for example other law firms or other service consulting companies; and

    Your personal data will not be passed on, transferred or sold to third parties outside OneLog AG unless this is necessary to process a contract that you have concluded with OneLog AG or you have given your explicit consent.
    We may share personal data where this is required by law, for example if we are required to share personal data with a law enforcement agency or for the purpose of prosecuting or uncovering unlawful activities.
  • Is your data transmitted abroad?
    • If your personal data is also transmitted to third parties abroad, i.e. outside of Switzerland or the European Economic Area [EEA]), they are obliged to comply with data protection to the same extent as we are. If the specific country does not have an adequate level of data protection, we will ensure that your personal data does have an adequate level of data protection. In particular, we ensure this by concluding EU Commission ‘standard data protection clauses’ with the companies concerned and/or through binding corporate rules (BCR) for the companies concerned, recognised by a European data protection authority, and, if necessary, further guarantees. If this is not possible, we base the data transfer on your explicit consent or the necessity of the transmission to fulfil a contract
  • How is your data secured?
    • OneLog AG operates secure data networks that meet all applicable technical standards. Appropriate technical and organisational measures are implemented to scrupulously protect your data from loss, destruction, falsification, manipulation and unauthorised access.
    Although OneLog AG makes every effort to prevent the disclosure of data due to errors in data transmission and/or unauthorised access by third parties, it cannot accept any liability for such unwanted events.
  • How long is your data stored for?
    • We only process and store your personal data for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or if this is required by laws or regulations to which we are subject. If the storage purpose no longer applies or if a set storage period expires, your data will be suppressed or erased by default and in line with any applicable legal provisions.
  • What are my rights when it comes to personal data?
    • You are entitled to determine what happens to your personal data yourself and you can always find out what happens to your personal data.
    So that we are able to check your identity, we ask that you send the request directly from your OneLog user account via email or, for written requests, to enclose a copy of proof of identity.
    If you have a question regarding additional data collected by affiliated companies, please consult the company-specific privacy policy.
    For questions in connection with data protection carried out by us and for information regarding your rights and how to assert them, you can contact us at any time using the contact options provided in section 4 of this privacy policy.

    • Right to object
      • You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, in accordance with legal provisions. In particular, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing.
      • If you have consented to the processing of your personal data, you are entitled to withdraw your consent at any time. If the processing of the personal data serves marketing and advertising purposes, you can withdraw your consent to processing for these purposes in general or in relation to specific products or services.
    • Right to lodge a complaint
