In this privacy policy we inform you in particular about which personal data is collected and processed in connection with the use of the portal, for which purposes it is used, to whom it may be passed on and what your rights are in connection with the use of your personal data by Motorrad Zürich AG.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this privacy policy or the processing of your personal data, please contact us at any time by sending an e-mail to info@honda-zuerich.ch.
All personal data collected via the website is processed in accordance with the applicable data protection regimes. We collect and process personal data carefully and for the purposes described in this privacy policy. In accordance with applicable law, we may also use your personal data in ways other than those described in this privacy policy. In such a case we will provide you with specific privacy statements or notices at the time of collection and, where necessary, obtain your consent. We always endeavour, as far as is reasonable, to collect information in anonymised or pseudonymised form so that we cannot identify you.
3.1 Personal data transmitted automatically through use of the portal
Motorrad Zürich AG collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us in «server log files» when you visit our website. The data is collected on the basis of your wish and interest to visit our website and our legitimate interests in operating the website. This may include the following data:
This personal data is not combined with other personal data and is stored separately from any further personal data transmitted by the user. It is anonymised by us after two months at the latest. Motorrad Zürich AG uses the automatically collected personal data for the following purposes:
3.2 Personal data that the user transmits to us
Motorrad Zürich AG collects and processes personal data that the user transmits voluntarily to Motorrad Zürich AG by means of an online form directly on the portal, via our contact e-mail address, via any other applications connected with the portal, by telephone or in another way. This information includes, for example, the following personal data:
The provision of this personal data is expressly voluntary. Without this personal data, however, we will not be able to provide the services requested by the user in the desired quality or at all. Motorrad Zürich AG uses the personal data that the user transmits to us for the following purposes:
The processing of the personal data mentioned above is based on the following legal grounds:
Where processing is based on your consent or on our legitimate interests, you may withdraw your consent or object to this processing at any time by contacting us directly at info@honda-zuerich.ch. Please note, however, that the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent before its withdrawal.
Motorrad Zürich AG takes the necessary measures to ensure that only our authorised staff and our agents who have the necessary knowledge have access to your personal data, in order to fulfil the purposes for which your personal data was collected.
In accordance with the purposes and legal bases of processing described above, we may pass on your personal data to the following possible categories of recipient, in so far as this is necessary for the intended data processing:
We select our partners and processors carefully and only where there is sufficient assurance that they have suitable technical and organisational measures in place in accordance with the legal requirements. Our processors may process personal data only on documented instructions from us. All of them are subject to confidentiality requirements and may use your personal data only to the extent necessary to fulfil the purpose for which your personal data was collected, unless otherwise required by law.
The personal data collected via our website is stored in Switzerland. In addition, we may transfer, store and process your personal data at data locations all over the world, for example where our third-party providers or partners are located. We may therefore transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) where this is necessary for the data processing described in this privacy policy in accordance with applicable law.
Where data is passed on to countries that do not guarantee an adequate level of protection, we ensure appropriate data protection by putting suitable safeguards in place, such as contractual guarantees (for example on the basis of EU standard clauses), on the basis of binding corporate rules, the transfer of data 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 appropriate safeguards by contacting us by e-mail at info@honda-zuerich.ch.
As a rule, personal data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected, unless longer retention is necessary in order to fulfil legal duties (for example retention and documentation duties), contractual or pre-contractual duties or legitimate business interests of ours (for example to assert, exercise or defend legal claims).
On this basis we generally process personal data in compliance with the following rules and obligations:
When you access or use the website, we may place so-called cookies – small text files – or similar tools on your computer. We use these cookies in order to recognise you as a user of the website, to adapt content, to improve the performance of the website and to improve its user-friendliness.
a) Categories of cookies that we use
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: www.allaboutcookies.org/. The legal basis for the data processing arises from your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR). Our legitimate interest follows from the secure and functional operation of the website and its needs-based design.
You can configure your browser setting so that no cookies are stored on your computer. Completely deactivating cookies may mean that you cannot use all functions of our website. By continuing to use our website and/or by agreeing to this privacy policy, you consent to cookies being set by us and thereby to personal usage data being collected, stored and used, including beyond the end of the browser session. You can withdraw this consent at any time by activating the browser setting for refusing third-party cookies.
b) Google Analytics
Motorrad Zürich AG uses the website analysis service Google Analytics on its website, which is operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The cookies used by Google Analytics are stored on your computer and thereby enable an analysis of your use of the website. We use Google Analytics on the basis of our legitimate interests in analysing our website and improving it regularly, and in regularly improving our offering through the statistics obtained and making it more interesting for you. Google Analytics is furthermore used on the basis of your consent to the tracking of your surfing behaviour on our web pages and its analytical evaluation.
The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. These cookies may contain the following information, for example: IP address, number, date and time of the visit, duration of the visit, your access page from which you use the website (referring URL), the pages visited on our website, browser type/version and operating system used. Google will use this information on our behalf because we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour so that we can optimise the offering on our website as well as our advertising. Google uses this information to evaluate the use of our website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with further services connected with the use of the website and the use of the internet. Pseudonymised usage profiles of users may likewise be created from the processed personal data.
On this website we have activated IP anonymisation (so-called IP masking). As a result, your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union, in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area and in Switzerland before transmission to the USA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
You can prevent the storage of cookies by means of a corresponding setting in your browser software. We would, however, point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can furthermore prevent the recording by Google of the personal data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address), as well as the processing of this personal data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. As an alternative to this, or within browsers on mobile devices, you can prevent the collection of your personal data by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link: deactivate the recording of personal data by Google Analytics for this website. In this case a special opt-out cookie is set on your device, which prevents the future recording of your usage data when you visit this website. If you delete your stored cookies, you have to click this link again. Further information on the handling of user data by Google Analytics can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.
It may furthermore be possible that Google checks the user’s use of the website and may combine the recorded personal data with other information about the user that Google has recorded independently from other websites visited by the user, and uses this for its own purposes (for example to control advertising) under its own responsibility on the basis of its own privacy policy. Further information about this and about how Google processes personal data can be found in the corresponding privacy policies of Google: https://policies.google.com/?hl=de / https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
c) Google Maps
This website uses the Google Maps API service, a map service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. This allows us to show you interactive maps directly in the website and enables you to use the map function conveniently.
The legal basis for the processing arises from your consent on the basis of your voluntary details for creating a route plan and from our legitimate interests in presenting our location and in the easy findability of the place stated by us on the website.
Through the use of Google Maps, information about the use of our website, including your IP address, may be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google may transfer the information obtained through Google Maps to third parties where this is required by law or where third parties process this data on behalf of Google.
Google will under no circumstances link your IP address with other data held by Google. Nevertheless, it would be technically possible for Google to identify at least individual users on the basis of the data received. It would be possible for personal data and personality profiles of users of the website to be processed by Google for other purposes over which we have no influence and can have none.
It is possible to deactivate Google Maps and to prevent data transfers to Google by deactivating JavaScript in your browser. We would point out, however, that in this case you cannot use the map display.
Further information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing by Google, along with further information on your related rights and setting options for protecting your privacy, can be found at: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
d) YouTube
On our website we use the services of the provider YouTube LLC, with registered office in the USA («YouTube»), a subsidiary of Google LLC. («Google»), for embedding videos.
When you start a YouTube video on our website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. The YouTube server is thereby informed which of our pages you have visited. This information (including your IP address) may be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If you are logged in to your YouTube account at the same time, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account before visiting our website.
We use the so-called extended data protection mode of YouTube. According to YouTube, this mode means that YouTube does not store any data about you as a visitor to our website before you watch or play the video. The extended data protection mode does not, however, necessarily rule out the passing on of data to YouTube partners.
Further information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing by YouTube can be found in the terms of use of YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/t/terms) and in the privacy policy of Google (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de).

We do not take any decision about you that is based exclusively on automated processing – including profiling – and that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.
Motorrad Zürich AG has implemented organisational and technical measures in order to maintain the security of personal data and to protect it against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure or access.
Motorrad Zürich AG may use third parties as data processors in order to collect and process your personal data. The data processors commissioned by us will process your personal data only in accordance with our instructions and are legally obliged to take strict security precautions when handling personal data.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information over the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our utmost to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of the data you transmit to our website; every transmission is at your own risk. For this reason you are free at any time to transmit your personal data to us by another route, for example by telephone. As soon as we have received your data, we apply strict procedures and strict security measures in order to prevent unauthorised access.
Please note that if you click on the link to a third-party provider’s website (for example Google or social media or other websites) you will be forwarded to a website that we do not control, and our privacy policy no longer applies. Your browsing and interaction on another website are subject to the terms of use and the privacy policies and notices of those third-party websites. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee the correctness and timeliness of these links either.
We recommend that you read the terms of use and the privacy policies and notices of other websites carefully before transmitting personal data via such a website. We are not responsible or liable for the information content and the data processing of such third-party websites.
Our website is not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age of 16 unless we have the express consent of their parents. If we are notified or otherwise learn that personal data of a child under the age of 16 has been collected improperly, we will take all reasonable steps to delete that personal data.
You may request information from Motorrad Zürich AG as to whether personal data about you is being processed. In addition, you have the right to request the correction, destruction or restriction of personal data about yourself and to object to the processing of your personal data. Where processing is based on your consent or on our legitimate interests, you may withdraw your consent or object to this processing at any time by contacting us directly by e-mail at info@honda-zuerich.ch. In certain cases you have the right to receive personal data that arises from the use of online services in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, so that further use and transmission to a possible third-party provider is possible.
Requests in this respect are to be addressed to Motorrad Zürich AG at the following e-mail address: info@honda-zuerich.ch. Motorrad Zürich AG reserves the right to restrict your rights within the framework of applicable law and, for example, not to disclose comprehensive information or not to delete personal data.
