Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026. This policy explains how Messer Aquatic Performance handles personal data on messeraquaticperformance.ch. It follows the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where it applies, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. Who is responsible

Nicolas Messer, Messer Aquatic Performance, Ostermundigen, Switzerland. Email: nme@nicolasmesser.ch. Write to this address for any question about your data.

2. What data we collect and why

Contact form

If you use the contact form, we collect the details you enter, such as your name, email address and message. We use them only to answer your enquiry and to discuss possible work together. The form sends the message to us by email and also saves a copy of the submission in the website database, so we can find it again later. The legal basis is your request to be contacted and our legitimate interest in handling enquiries.

Server logs

Our hosting provider records technical data when you visit the site, such as your IP address, browser type, date and time of access and the pages requested. This is needed to run the site securely and to find faults. Logs are kept for a short period set by the provider.

Cookies

The site uses only the technically necessary cookies that WordPress sets. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. We currently use no analytics tools. If this changes, we will update this policy before we start.

Fonts and embedded content

Fonts are hosted on this website, so your browser does not contact Google or other font services. If we embed content from other sites later, such as videos, those sites may collect data about you. We will say so on the page where it happens.

3. Who we share data with

We do not sell your data. We share it only with service providers who help us run the site and handle email. Our web hosting and website email provider is Infomaniak Network SA, a Swiss company, and the site is hosted in Switzerland. Infomaniak processes data on our behalf. If one of our providers is located outside Switzerland or the EU, we rely on adequate protection such as standard contractual clauses.

4. How long we keep data

We keep contact form messages for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and any resulting work, and normally delete them after two years unless a business relationship or a legal duty requires us to keep them longer.

5. How we protect data

The site uses HTTPS encryption. Access to the website admin area and to saved form submissions is limited to the site owner and protected by login credentials.

6. Your rights

You may ask us for access to your data, for correction or deletion, for a copy in a common format, or object to our processing. You can also withdraw any consent you gave. Email us to use these rights. You may also complain to the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or, if you live in the EU, to your local data protection authority.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the site or the law changes. The current version is always on this page.
