Scope
This privacy policy applies to personal data processed by Vallier & Cie. in connection with the website vallierandcie.com and any correspondence undertaken through it.
Data we may process
When you write to the maison — by email, by letter, or via any form linked from this website — we may process the name, email address, postal address, and any other personal details you choose to share, together with the content of your correspondence.
Web server logs may also record technical metadata (IP address, browser identifier, timestamp) for the purpose of preventing abuse and maintaining service availability.
Purposes of processing
Personal data is processed solely for the purpose of responding to your correspondence, evaluating letters of introduction, conducting commissions, and maintaining the Vallier Register where you are a collector.
Legal basis
Processing rests on your consent (where you have voluntarily corresponded with the maison), the necessity of performing or preparing a contract (where applicable), and the legitimate interests of Vallier & Cie. in maintaining the Register and the integrity of its placement process.
Sharing
Personal data is not sold and is not shared with third parties for marketing purposes. Limited sharing occurs only where required by Swiss law, by the notary maintaining the Vallier Register, or by service providers strictly necessary for the operation of the maison.
Retention
Personal data is retained for as long as the relationship with the collector exists, and thereafter for the period required by Swiss commercial, fiscal, and notarial law. Register entries are retained permanently as a matter of the Register's purpose.
Your rights
Where applicable law grants such rights, you may request access to, rectification of, or erasure of your personal data, restriction of processing, portability, and the right to object. To exercise these rights, please write to contact@vallier-cie.com.
