We may also disclose personal information related to litigation and other legal claims or proceedings in which we are involved, as well as for our internal accounting, auditing, compliance, recordkeeping, and legal functions.
  • Other Disclosures. We may disclose personal information in other ways not described above that we notify you of or that we obtain your consent for, or that are otherwise authorized or required by law.

Notwithstanding anything else described in this Policy, we may use and disclose aggregated, deidentified, and other non-identifiable data related to our business and the Services for quality control, analytics, research, development, and other purposes. Where we use, disclose or process deidentified data (data that is no longer reasonably linked or linkable to an identified or identifiable natural person, household, or personal or household device) we will maintain and use the information in deidentified form and not to attempt to reidentify the information, except in order to determine whether our deidentification processes are reasonable and adequate pursuant to applicable privacy laws.

5. Transfers of personal data in the context of countries located outside the EEA/CH

Les destinataires des données à caractère personnel peuvent être situés en dehors de l’Espace économique européen ou de la Suisse. Lorsque des données à caractère personnel sont transférées à ces destinataires, en particulier ceux situés aux États-Unis, nous veillerons, conformément à la loi, à ce que vos droits en matière de protection de la vie privée soient correctement protégés. Cette protection sera garantie soit parce que la Commission européenne a décidé que le pays vers lequel les données à caractère personnel sont transférées assure un niveau de protection adéquat (art. 45 du RGPD), soit parce que le transfert est soumis à des garanties appropriées (par exemple, des clauses types de protection des données de l’Union européenne convenues avec le destinataire) (art. 46 du RGPD) En outre, nous avons l’intention, si nécessaire, de convenir de mesures supplémentaires avec les destinataires afin de garantir un niveau adéquat de protection des données. Voir également l’article 16, lettre f, de la nouvelle LPD concernant la communication de données à caractère personnel hors de Suisse.

Please note that such copy may be redacted to the extent necessary to protect business secrets or other confidential information.

15. Additional Privacy Information for Certain Jurisdictions

Residents of certain jurisdictions have additional rights under applicable privacy laws, as described in this section.

A. GDPR

If you are a resident of the European Union, you have the following rights under GDPR provided that the legal requirements therein are met:

Right of access – You may request information about the processing of your personal data and a copy of the personal data undergoing processing insofar as such copy does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others and no other exception applies.

Right to rectification – You may request correction of your personal data that is inaccurate and/or completion of such data which is incomplete.

Right to erasure – You may request deletion of your personal data, in particular where

  • the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed,
  • you have withdrawn your consent on which the processing was based and there is no other legal basis for the processing,
  • you objected to the processing which is based on the legal basis “legitimate interests” and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing or you objected to the processing for direct marketing purposes,
  • your personal data has been unlawfully processed or
  • your personal data has to be erased for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject.

The right to erasure, however, does not apply in particular where the processing of your personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Right to restriction of processing – You may request restriction of processing

  • for the period in which we verify the accuracy of your personal data if you contested the accuracy of the personal data,
  • where the processing is unlawful and you request restriction of processing instead of erasure of the data,
  • where we no longer need the personal data, but you require the data for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, or
  • if you objected to processing which is based on the legal basis “legitimate interests” until it has been verified whether our legitimate grounds override your interests, rights, and freedoms.

Right to data portability – You may request to receive your personal data, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used machine-readable format and transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from us, where the processing is based on consent or the performance of a contract and the processing is carried out by automated means; in these cases, you may also request to have the personal data transmitted directly to another controller where this is technically feasible.

Furthermore, you have the following rights:

Right to withdraw consent – You may withdraw your consent at any time for the future where processing is based on your consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Right to object – You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of your personal data which is based on our or a third party’s legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). We then will no longer process your personal data for the purpose to which you have objected, unless we are able to demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights, and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Further, you have the right to object at any time to processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes. Where you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, we will process your personal data no longer for such purposes.

Right to lodge a complaint – You may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of an alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR.

The data protection authority competent for us is:

Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, The Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information, Ludwig-Erhard-Str. 22, 20459 Hamburg, email: mailbox@datenschutz.hamburg.de

B. Swiss Data Protection Law

Your right of access – You have the right to ask us for copies of your personal data. This right always applies but there are some exemptions to its application, which means you may not always receive all the information you have requested. When you request data, this is known as making a data subject access request (DSAR).

Your right to rectification – You have the right to ask us to rectify personal data you think is inaccurate. You also have the right to ask us to complete information you think is incomplete.

Your right to erasure – You have the right to ask us to erase your personal data in certain circumstances. We have the right to refuse to comply with a request for erasure if we are processing the personal data for one of the following reasons:

  • To exercise the right of freedom of expression and information.
  • To comply with a legal obligation.
  • To perform a task in the public interest or exercise official authority.
  • For archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific research, historical research or statistical purposes.
  • For the exercise or defence of legal claims.

Your right to restriction of processing – You have the right to ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances. In such case, we will still hold the data but will not process it any further. This right is an alternative to the right to erasure. If one of the following conditions applies, you may exercise the right to restrict processing:

  • The accuracy of the personal data is contested.
  • Processing of the personal data is unlawful.
  • We no longer need the personal data for processing, but the personal data is required for part of a legal process.
  • The right to object has been exercised and processing is restricted pending a decision on the status of the processing.

Your right to object to processing – You have the right to object to processing in certain circumstances. You can also object if the processing is for a task carried out in the public interest, the exercise of official authority vested in us, or our legitimate interests (or those of a third party).

Your right to object to direct marketing – You can also object at any time to the processing of your personal data for advertising purposes (« advertising objection »). Please take into account that, for organizational reasons, there may be an overlap between your revocation and the use of your data in the context of an already ongoing campaign.

Your right to data portability – This right only applies if we are processing information based on your consent or for the performance of a contract and the processing is automated.

If you would like to exercise any of your rights, please use the information under Contact Us. Please also ensure that when you do so, you provide sufficient information to enable us to clearly identify you.

Notification d’une incitation financière. En rapport avec certains de nos services, LOVOO peut réaliser certains programmes ou offres ainsi que d’autres tirages au sort, jeu-concours ou tout autre offre promotionnelle (un « programme ») qui peuvent comporter certaines offres, récompenses, remises, prestations, avantages et actions promotionnelles (« récompenses et offres »). Ces programmes peuvent être considérés comme des « incitations financières » au sens du CCPA. Nous proposons aux utilisateurs participants ces récompenses et offres pour comprendre la satisfaction et l’expérience de nos clients, pour les améliorer et encourager de bonnes relations avec nos clients.

Comme base pour cette proposition de récompenses et offres, nous avons évalué les données à caractère personnel que nous recueillons en pratiquant une évaluation adéquate et honnête obtenue en tenant compte des coûts liés aux programmes. Pour ce faire, nous évaluons les données à caractère personnel collectées dans le cadre du programme en tant que contrepartie aux coûts et dépenses engagés pour la mise en œuvre du programme, à savoir les frais liés à l’informatique, la gestion, les couts directs, les coûts pour les tiers, les remises et coûts de développement des services.

Tes données à caractère personnel sont collectées et enregistrées et peuvent, comme cela est décrit dans cette directive, être communiquées à nos partenaires commerciaux, fournisseurs et prestataires ainsi qu’à des tiers, entre autres, (i) pour gérer le programme, (ii) à des fins de recherche et d’analyse, (iii) pour améliorer nos produits et services, (iv) pour te soumettre des offres plus pertinentes, plus ciblées et (v) pour t’envoyer des nouveautés, mises à jour et offres LOVOO par e-mail, courrier et SMS (en tenant compte de tes préférences en matière de communication).

Tu peux à tout moment te retirer d’un programme, en nous contactant de la façon décrite dans la présente directive. Merci de noter que ta participation à un programme prend fin lorsque tu te désinscris d’un programme (ou lorsque tu déposes une requête CCPA demandant la suppression de tes données liées au programme), ce qui signifie que tu n’es plus en droit d’exiger, utiliser, gagner et toucher des récompenses, sous réserve des conditions en vigueur pour le programme.

La loi californienne « Shine the Light ». Selon la loi californienne « Shine the Light » (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.83) les habitants de Californie qui nous fournissent certaines données à caractère personnel ont le droit d’obtenir gratuitement de notre part des informations sur les données à caractère personnel (le cas échéant) que nous partageons avec des tiers aux fins de marketing direct de ces tiers.
