In accordance with applicable law, we may also use your personal data in ways other than those described in this Privacy Policy. In this case, we will provide you with specific data protection declarations or notifications at the time of collection and, if necessary, obtain your consent.

3.2 Personal data that you transmit to us
Opferhilfe beider Basel collects and processes personal data that the user voluntarily transmits to us by means of an online form directly on the website, via our contact e-mail address, via any other applications linked to the website, by telephone or in any other way.

The provision of this personal data is expressly on a voluntary basis. Without this personal data, however, we will not be able to provide the services requested by the user.
Opferhilfe beider Basel uses the personal data that the user transmits to us to fulfill the following purposes:
3.3 Donations
You can make a donation or process a payment easily and securely online on our website. You can use debit or credit cards. The certified e-payment platform from RaiseNow, based in Zurich, has been specially developed for charitable organizations and aid agencies. RaiseNow fulfills all guidelines of the financial authorities and IT security standards and is PCI-DSS-certified (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). All transactions are transmitted securely via SSL. We store the data you provide in connection with the donation, i.e. the amount, the purpose of your donation and your address, in our donation database.
Like all online providers, we collect user data to optimize our offering. This information is not collected and stored by us on a personal basis. We are therefore unable to trace which user has accessed which data. In particular, we do not collect any names, postal addresses, telephone numbers or e-mail addresses as a result of your visit to our website, nor do we collect any information about personal interests or your donation behavior.
4. legal basis for data processing
The processing of personal data is based on the following legal bases:
If the processing is based on your consent or our legitimate interests, you can withdraw your consent at any time or object to this processing by contacting us directly. Please note, however, that the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
5. recipients of personal data
Opferhilfe beider Basel takes the necessary measures to ensure that only our authorized personnel and our auxiliary persons who have the necessary knowledge have access to your personal data in order to fulfill the purposes for which your personal data was collected.
We may disclose your personal data to the following possible categories of recipients in accordance with the purposes and legal bases of processing described above, insofar as this is necessary for the intended data processing:
We select our partners and processors carefully and only use them if we can sufficiently guarantee that they have suitable technical and organizational measures in place in accordance with the legal requirements. Our processors can only process personal data on our documented instructions. They are all subject to confidentiality requirements and may only use your personal data to the extent necessary to fulfill the purpose for which your personal data was collected, unless otherwise required by law.
6. transfer of personal data to countries outside Switzerland
The personal data we collect about you is generally stored in Switzerland. In addition, we may transfer, store and process your personal data at data locations around the world, e.g. where our third-party providers or partners are located. We may therefore also transfer your personal data outside Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA) in compliance with data protection legislation if this is necessary for the data processing described in this Privacy Policy.
If data is transferred to countries that do not guarantee an adequate level of protection, we ensure adequate data protection by providing appropriate safeguards, such as contractual guarantees (e.g. on the basis of EU standard clauses adapted to Switzerland), on the basis of binding corporate rules, the transfer of data in accordance with your express consent, for the conclusion or performance of a contract with you, or in connection with the establishment, exercise or enforcement of legal claims. You can obtain further information about our reasonable security measures by contacting us at the address set out in section 1 contact point indicated.
7. duration of storage of personal data
We process and store your personal data for the duration of the business relationship and beyond in accordance with the statutory retention and documentation obligations. Personal data may be retained for the period during which claims can be asserted against our company (i.e. in particular during the statutory limitation period) and insofar as we are otherwise legally obliged to do so or legitimate business interests require this (e.g. for evidence and documentation purposes). As soon as your personal data is no longer required for the above-mentioned purposes, it will be deactivated and no longer used. In principle, shorter retention periods of twelve months or less apply to operational data (e.g. system protocols, logs).
8. your rights
You have the right to information, correction, deletion, restriction of data processing and objection to our data processing as well as to the disclosure of certain personal data for the purpose of transfer to another body (so-called data portability) within the scope of the data protection law applicable to you and to the extent provided for therein (such as in the case of the GDPR). Please note, however, that we reserve the right to assert the restrictions provided for by law, for example if we are obliged to store or process certain data or need it to assert claims. If you incur any costs, we will inform you in advance.
Upon written request to Opferhilfe beider Basel, we can inform you about the data we have stored about you. Please send us your first name, surname and e-mail address as well as a copy of an official form of identification (ID, passport). This is necessary to prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to your data.
You also have the right to enforce your claims in court or to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority. The competent data protection authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (

9. use of cookies
9.1 Categories of cookies that we use
We use cookies during your visit to our websites. Cookies are small text files that are stored permanently or temporarily on your computer when you visit this website. The purpose of cookies is in particular to analyze the use of this website for statistical evaluation and for continuous improvements. You can deactivate cookies completely or partially in your browser settings at any time. If cookies are deactivated, you may no longer be able to use all the functions of this website.
Depending on their function and purpose, the cookies we use can be divided into the following categories: functional cookies, performance cookies and advertising cookies.
These cookies may be placed by us or by a third party on our behalf. Further information about cookies and their use can be found at
http://www.allaboutcookies.org/
.
The legal basis for data processing (to the extent required by data protection legislation) is your consent or our legitimate interest. Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring the optimal functionality of our website, an optimized user experience and the ongoing development of our services.
You can configure your browser settings so that no cookies are stored on your computer. If you deactivate cookies completely, you may not be able to use all the functions of our website.
By continuing to use our website and/or agreeing to this privacy policy, you consent to cookies being set by us and thus to personal usage data being collected, stored and used, even beyond the end of the browser session. You can revoke this consent at any time by activating the browser setting to refuse third-party cookies.
9.2 Other third-party providers
We use offers from other providers on our websites and mobile applications. Videos are embedded via the YouTube platform. Content can be shared or recommended via Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Google+. If you click on an element of such a third-party provider (e.g. “Like” plug-in from Facebook), a connection to the servers of this third-party provider can be established automatically. Data about your visit to the website may be transmitted to the third-party provider and may be assigned to your user account there. Information on the collection and use of data by these platforms can be found in their data protection notices. You also have the option of restricting the use of your personal data via the settings.
10. secure data transmission
All data that you provide to us via our website, when ordering a newsletter or making contact inquiries, is transmitted to us in encrypted form via a secure connection. The security procedure used (SSL-Secure Sockets Layer) corresponds to the usual state of the art.
11 Liability for links
On our website we also place links to external offers that we consider to be worth recommending. We only do this if no misleading or illegal content was recognizable on the linked pages at the time the link was created. However, we have no influence on the future design of these pages. Therefore, we cannot accept any responsibility for recommended pages that were changed after the link was created. The provider of the respective page is solely liable for illegal, incorrect or incomplete content and in particular for damages resulting from the use of such information.
12th Newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use your data exclusively for the delivery of our newsletter, as described in the registration form. To subscribe to our newsletter, all you need to do is enter your e-mail address. Registration takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. After registration you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can log in with other people’s e-mail addresses. Registrations and changes to the newsletter subscription are logged and can therefore be tracked.
If you provide further information about yourself when registering, we will compare this with our own address database in order to optimize the topicality and quality of the addresses and thus our communication with you. Your newsletter data will be treated as strictly confidential and will not be passed on or sold to third parties. In close cooperation with our Internet and newsletter service providers, we also ensure that your data is optimally protected against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or falsification.
The newsletter is sent by CleverReach, CRASH Building, Schafjückenweg 2, 26180 Rastede, Germany, hereinafter referred to as the “sending service provider”. You can view the data protection provisions of the shipping service provider at

to view.
Furthermore, the mailing service provider may, according to its own information, use this data in pseudonymous form, i.e. without allocation to a user, to optimize or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimize the mailing and presentation of the newsletter or for statistical purposes to determine which countries the recipients come from. However, the mailing service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or pass it on to third parties.
The newsletters contain a so-called “web-beacon“, i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the mailing service provider’s server when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of retrieval are initially collected. This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our intention nor that of the shipping service provider to monitor individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.
13. changes to this privacy policy
We may amend this privacy policy at any time without prior notice. The current version published on our website applies. If the privacy policy is part of an agreement with you, we will inform you of the change by e-mail or other suitable means in the event of an update.
