Data Privacy Statement

A. Introduction

​All information received from you is handled in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Data Protection Act (FADP). By providing us with your data, you agree that we can process your data for the purposes expressly stated when you entered the data or that are obviously related to the sending of your data.

We may update this Privacy and Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the law and/or our privacy practices, without notification in case of minor changes. Any changes to our Privacy and Cookies Policy will become effective immediately when we post the revised Privacy and Cookies Policy on our website.

1. Program and employment

​​Talent Kick only collects personal data that is related to our relationship with you. The data collected by us includes in particular your contact details such as name, telephone number, address or e-mail address as well as other details, especially in connection with a program application, employment application, and the use of our website. In contrast, information that cannot be linked to your identity (e.g. statistical data on the number of users of our online service) is not considered personal data.

​

Personal data will be treated confidentially and will not be disseminated outside Talent Kick and its external network of experts, whose representatives will themselves be asked to keep the information confidential. 

​

We will only pass on your data to third parties if we are legally authorized to do so or if you have given us your consent to do so. External service providers who process data on our behalf are subject to strict obligations under the Federal Data Protection Act. We have made sure that the external service providers are able to ensure data security.

​

In addition to the information directly linked to the project entries, we use your data to inform you about Talent Kick opportunities and events connected with our program.

Talent Kick does not collect sensitive data such as health data of individuals.

4. Social Media Plugins

On the Talent Kick website, you will find links to social media networks, specifically LinkedIn and Instagram. You can recognize the linking by the provider's logo. Clicking on the link opens the corresponding social media page to which this data protection declaration does not apply. For details of the provision applicable there, please refer to the corresponding data protection statements on the provider's website. Before calling up the corresponding link, no personal information is transmitted to the respective providers. Your calling up of the linked page is at the same time the basis for the data processing by the respective providers. We have no influence on the data processing operations, nor are we aware of the full extent of the data collection, the purposes of the processing, and the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of data by the plug-in providers.
