Depending on use, we process the following data:

  • Account/salon data: When registering a salon: name, email, salon details, opening hours, services.

Data is only disclosed insofar as this is necessary to provide the service (e. g. to the data processors named above) or where there is a legal obligation. There is no sale of personal data.

6. Retention

We only retain data for as long as it is necessary for the stated purposes or due to legal obligations. Salons can export their data and have it deleted at any time.

You have the right to information, correction, deletion and restriction of the processing of your data, as well as the right to data portability. To exercise these rights, contact info@beautyscout.ch.

8. Cookies

Für Anmeldung und Sprache verwenden wir lokale Speicherung. Für die eigene Nutzungsstatistik speichern wir Seitenpfad, Bereich, Ereignis, Zeitpunkt, gegebenenfalls Betriebskennung und Kampagnenquelle sowie eine zufällige Kennung pro Browser-Tab (sessionStorage). Diese Kennung ermöglicht die Zuordnung innerhalb einer Sitzung. IP-Adressen werden nicht in der Besuchsstatistik gespeichert; sie werden kurzzeitig für Missbrauchsschutz verarbeitet und können in technischen Server-Logs anfallen. Es werden keine Werbe-Cookies gesetzt.
