To respond to inquiries and communicate with you.

​
4. Newsletter and Marketing Communications
If you subscribe to investor letters, newsletters, or other marketing communications, we process your email address and related subscription data in order to send you the requested communications.
You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the relevant communication or by contacting us. If you unsubscribe or object to receiving marketing communications, we will stop sending such communications to you.
In order to ensure that you do not receive marketing communications after an opt-out, objection, or deletion request, we may retain limited data, such as your email address and the fact of your opt-out, on an internal suppression list. We use such data solely to prevent future communications from being sent to you and not for marketing purposes.
​
5. Collection of Data Through the Website
When you visit our website, certain technical data may be collected automatically by our hosting providers and by technologies used on the website. This may include server logs, IP address, browser information, device information, referring URLs, and information about how the website is used.
If you register on our website, subscribe to our communications, or use our contact forms, your data is securely captured and stored within our Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system.
We may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for the operation, security, and functionality of the website. Where we use analytics services to measure website traffic, we ensure that data (such as IP addresses) is appropriately anonymized or truncated before processing. We use these tools based on your consent or our legitimate interest in analyzing and optimizing our website.
​
6. Sources of Personal Data
We generally collect personal data directly from you, for example when you:
-
visit our website;
-
subscribe to investor letters or other communications;
-
contact us by email, phone, or contact form;
-
provide information in the course of a business relationship.
​
We may also receive personal data from:
-
service providers acting on our behalf;
-
publicly available sources;
-
business partners or intermediaries, where legally permitted;
-
technical systems used for website operation, security, or communications.
​​
7. Disclosure of Personal Data
We may disclose personal data to the following categories of recipients where necessary for the purposes described above:
-
IT, hosting, database, and cloud service providers (including website hosting and CRM platform providers);
-
email, newsletter, and communications service providers;
-
providers of analytics, security, and anti-abuse systems;
-
legal, compliance, audit, and professional advisers;
-
courts, authorities (e.g., FINMA, SEC), regulators, or law enforcement bodies, where required by law.
Where third parties process personal data on our behalf, we require them to process such data only on documented instructions and with appropriate safeguards in place.
​
8. International Data Transfers
We may transfer personal data to recipients outside of Switzerland. Depending on the service providers we use, personal data may be transferred to, or accessed from, the following jurisdictions:
-
Switzerland
-
The European Union (EU) / European Economic Area (EEA)
-
The United States
-
Israel
(The European Commission and Switzerland recognize Israel and the EU/EEA as providing an adequate level of data protection).
Where personal data is transferred to countries (such as the United States) that do not provide a level of data protection deemed equivalent under Swiss law, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place. These safeguards include the implementation of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the relevant authorities, data processing agreements, and adherence to industry-standard security and technical measures to protect your personal data.
​
9. Retention Period
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, for related legitimate business purposes, and for compliance with legal, regulatory, contractual, and audit obligations.
Retention periods may differ depending on the type of data and the purpose of processing. In particular:
-
Subscription and marketing data is generally deleted or anonymized when it is no longer needed, unless limited retention is required to maintain a suppression list;
-
Correspondence may be retained for documentation, compliance, and audit purposes;
-
Records subject to accounting, tax, regulatory, legal, or audit retention obligations may be retained for up to 10 years or longer where required in a particular case;
-
Backup data may remain in secure backup systems until overwritten in the ordinary backup cycle.
Where deletion is not immediately possible, for example because data is stored in secure archives, backups, or legally required records, we will restrict the processing and retain the data only for the legally permitted purpose.
​
10. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
These measures may include access controls, role-based permissions, encryption where appropriate, logging, secure hosting, backup procedures, and internal policies governing the handling of personal data.
