Privacy & Legal

01Legal notice

TSI SA is the owner of the TOVARITCH! brand and the controller responsible for the processing of personal data on this website.

02The data we collect and why

We process personal data in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and its Ordinance and, where it applies to visitors in the European Economic Area, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We collect as little data as possible.

Browsing the website

When you visit tovaritch.com, our hosting provider automatically records technical data (IP address, date and time, pages viewed, browser and device type, referring page). We use it only to deliver the site, keep it secure and fix problems. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in a secure, working website.

Age verification

Our products are reserved for adults of legal drinking age. The age check stores only your answer in a cookie; it contains no personal details.

Trade enquiries

When you request a quotation we collect the details you enter (name, job title, company, country, website, VAT or registration number, business email, phone, optional WhatsApp number and LinkedIn profile, business type, volumes and message). We use them to answer you, to check that your company exists before replying, and to prepare a possible business relationship. We may consult public sources such as company registers and the EU VIES VAT database. Legal basis: steps prior to a contract and our legitimate interest in protecting our business against fraud.

WhatsApp

If you ask us to contact you on WhatsApp, we use the number you gave us only for that conversation. WhatsApp is operated by Meta and its own privacy terms apply to messages sent through it. You can ask us to switch to email at any time.

Press requests

When you use the press form we collect your name, role, outlet, country, contact details and the details of your request, to answer it and send you the material you need.

Orders

If you buy from us, we process the data needed to deliver, invoice and support your order. Payment details are handled by the payment provider and are not stored by us. We keep accounting records as required by Swiss law.

Downloads and films

Our videos are hosted on our own server. When you download a technical sheet, a small software library is loaded from a public content-delivery network (cdnjs, operated by Cloudflare), which receives your IP address to deliver the file.

03Cookies and measurement

We use three kinds of cookies:

• Necessary: age verification, your cookie choices, security and basic site functions. Always active.
• Analytics: Google Analytics, to understand which pages are useful. Only with your consent.
• Marketing: the Meta pixel, to measure our campaigns. Only with your consent.

Your choices are managed by our consent tool (CookieYes). You can change or withdraw your consent at any time with the cookie icon at the bottom of every page. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing carried out before.

04Who receives your data

We never sell your data. We share it only with providers that help us run the website and our business, under contracts that oblige them to protect it: our hosting provider, our email and office provider (Google Workspace), analytics and advertising providers (Google, Meta) when you have consented, our consent tool (CookieYes), and logistics or distribution partners when this is needed to answer your request or deliver an order. We disclose data to authorities only where the law requires it.

Transfers abroad

Some of these providers process data outside Switzerland and the European Economic Area, in particular in the United States. Where a country does not offer an adequate level of protection, we rely on recognised safeguards such as the Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework or the standard contractual clauses approved by the Swiss and EU authorities.

How long we keep it

Enquiries are kept for up to 24 months after our last contact, unless a business relationship follows. Accounting documents are kept for 10 years as required by Swiss law. Technical logs are kept only for a short period. Then we delete or anonymise the data.

Security

The website uses encrypted connections (HTTPS), and access to data is limited to the people who need it.

05Your rights

You can ask us at any time for information about the data we hold about you, and ask us to correct, delete or restrict it, to object to its use, or to receive it in a portable format. You can withdraw any consent you have given. Write to info@tovaritch.com; we will answer within 30 days and may ask you to confirm your identity.

You also have the right to complain to the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC, edoeb.admin.ch) or, if you live in the EEA, to your local data protection authority.

This website is intended for adults of legal drinking age. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.

07Terms of use

We take great care over the information on this site, but it is provided for general information and may change without notice. Prices, availability and product specifications are confirmed only in a written offer or order confirmation. Links to other websites are provided for convenience; we are not responsible for their content.

Please enjoy TOVARITCH! responsibly. Never drink and drive. Do not drink alcohol if you are pregnant.

These terms and this privacy policy are governed by Swiss law. Subject to mandatory consumer protection rules, the courts of Geneva, Switzerland have exclusive jurisdiction. We may update this page from time to time; the date at the top shows the latest version.
