Privacy Policy & Data Protection

Last updated: 16.03.2026

Welcome to pwb.trimos.com. The protection of your personal data is of great importance to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website, in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Swiss data protection laws.

1. Data Controller

The entity responsible for the processing of your personal data on this website is:

  • Trimos SA
  • Av de Longemalle 5
  • CH-1020 Renens
  • Email: contact@trimos.com
  • Phone: +41 21 633 01 61

2. What Data We Collect and Why

2.1. Server Log Files

When you visit our website, the web server automatically records standard log files.

  • Data collected: IP address, date and time of the request, time zone difference to GMT, content of the request (specific page), HTTP status code, amount of data transferred, website from which the request comes (referrer), browser type, and operating system.

  • Purpose: To ensure the technical operation, security, and stability of our website.

  • Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Legitimate Interest). Our legitimate interest lies in maintaining the security and functionality of our web infrastructure.

2.2. Web Analytics (Matomo – Without Cookies)

We use Matomo, an open-source privacy-focused web analytics software, to analyze how visitors interact with our website so we can continuously improve the user experience.

To strictly protect your privacy, we have configured Matomo to operate without using cookies.

  • How it works: Instead of planting tracking cookies on your device, Matomo uses non-intrusive methods (like device fingerprinting that is anonymized and rotated daily) to analyze website traffic.

  • Data anonymization: Your IP address is automatically anonymized (e.g., the last two bytes are masked) before any data is stored. Consequently, it is impossible for us to trace the collected data back to you as an individual.

  • Data ownership and sharing: The analytics data is hosted strictly on our own servers [or “by our trusted European hosting provider”]. No data is ever shared with third parties (like Google or other advertisers) or used for cross-site tracking.

  • Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Legitimate Interest). Our legitimate interest is the statistical analysis of user behavior for optimization and marketing purposes without compromising user privacy.

Opt-out of Matomo Analytics:

2.3. Contact Forms and Direct Communication (If applicable)

If you contact us via email or a contact form, the data you provide (e.g., email address, name, message content) will be processed to answer your request.

  • Legal basis: Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (if relating to a contract/pre-contractual steps) or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Legitimate Interest in responding to inquiries).

3. Data Retention

We store your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected:

  • Matomo analytics data: Because the data is highly anonymized, aggregated reports are kept indefinitely for historical comparison.

4. Data Sharing and Third-Party Processors

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share your data with trusted service providers (Data Processors) who assist us in operating our website (e.g., hosting providers). These providers are contractually bound by Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) to process data only according to our instructions and in full compliance with the GDPR.

5. Your Rights Under the GDPR

As a data subject, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right of Access (Art. 15 GDPR): You have the right to request information about the personal data we hold about you.

  • Right to Rectification (Art. 16 GDPR): You can request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.

  • Right to Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR): You can request the deletion of your personal data (“Right to be forgotten”).

  • Right to Restriction of Processing (Art. 18 GDPR): You have the right to restrict how we process your data.

  • Right to Data Portability (Art. 20 GDPR): You have the right to receive your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

  • Right to Object (Art. 21 GDPR): You have the right to object to the processing of your data based on legitimate interests (as provided in the Matomo opt-out above).

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@trimos.com

6. Right to Lodge a Complaint

If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR or applicable privacy laws, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Since Trimos is based in Switzerland, the primary authority is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC). If you are accessing this site from the EU, you may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

7. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect technical or legal changes. The current version will always be available on this page.
