The entity responsible for data processing on this
online platform is [company name] (hereinafter also referred to as ‘we’ or ‘us’).
Aion Technology GmbH is the operator of the platform for succession and matching advice
for entrepreneurs (sellers) and investors (buyers). If you have any questions or concerns regarding
data protection, you can contact us at any time at the following address:
Aion Technology Limited
Alpenstrasse 16 6300 Zug, Switzerland
E-Mail: info@aion-tech.ai
We comply with applicable data protection laws, in particular the Swiss Federal Act
on Data Protection (FADP) in its revised version (revFADP) and – insofar as relevant for
EU users – the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This
privacy policy explains what personal data we collect, how we process it
and what rights you have.
We collect and process personal data from all users.
In addition, we process usage and matching data as well as contractual and
process-related data that is generated when using the platform.
Specifically, we process the following categories of data in particular:
Data from sellers and entrepreneurs: Information about the company and the person selling it,
e.g. company name, industry, location, financial key figures (annual turnover,
EBIT, number of employees), details of the intention to sell (planned company succession or
sale, desired exit time horizon), company profile (vision, values, desired
successor profile) and documents in the data room (e.g. contracts, balance sheets,
employee lists and other sensitive company documents). This data is usually provided directly by users, for example when creating a profile or
as part of the due diligence data room.
The data room is a secure platform where users can securely store and share
Data from buyers/investors: Personal identification data and supporting documents (e.g.
name, contact information, copies of identification documents for KYC purposes),
interest profile (preferred industry, region, company size or turnover size of the
target company), experience (e.g. previous management buy-in experience or
private equity experience), value preferences and leadership style (information on which
company values are important and which leadership style is preferred) and
verification status (e.g. whether the person has received a verification badge or whether
a background check has been successfully completed). This information is
typically provided by buyers during registration or profile maintenance;
KYC documents may be requested by us for identity verification purposes.
Matching and usage data: Data that is collected automatically
or analytically during use of the platform. This includes, in particular, matching scores calculated by our
AI-supported matching software for potential partner suggestions, as well as
information about user behaviour on the platform, e.g. pages or profiles visited,
click paths, offers viewed, interactions with suggested matches and
conversion data (e.g. whether contact led to further discussions
or conclusions). We collect such data using technical tools (e.g.
cookies or similar tracking technologies) and internal logs in order to provide and optimise the functionality of the
platform.
Contractual and process-related data: Data generated in the course of the brokerage and
succession process. This includes dates and status information on specific
transactions (e.g. date of platform onboarding, dates of matching proposals,
milestones in the brokerage process up to the conclusion of the deal), performance indicators
(e.g. whether and when a company sale is successfully completed, success rates
of our brokerage services) and transaction and payment information (e.g. whether
brokerage fees or success fees were paid, date of receipt of payment).
This information is primarily kept internally by us in order to document the process
and is partly generated by the user action itself (e.g. when a deal
is concluded via the platform).
For the purposes of this privacy policy, personal data is any information that
relates to an identified or identifiable natural person. This may also include company-related data in certain circumstances, for example if it relates to
a sole proprietorship or if personal data is contained in
information about a sole proprietorship or if personal data is contained in
company documents and can be assigned to a specific person
.
Purposes of data processing and legal bases
We use the above categories of data for various purposes in
connection with the provision and improvement of our platform and our
AI-supported succession and matching advice. Within the framework of the GDPR, we base the
processing on different legal bases (Art. 6(1)
GDPR), depending on the purpose.
Under the Swiss DSG, personal data is processed in accordance with
the principles of the revDSG; where consent or
other justification is required for certain processing operations, we obtain this. Specifically, we process
your data for the following purposes:
Operation of the online platform and brokerage services: We process
personal data of users to enable them to use the platform,
create and specify profiles, and suggest suitable counterparties for a possible
business succession or investment. This includes presenting your
profile information to suitable partners and facilitating communication between the
parties (e.g. forwarding contact requests).
Legal basis: This processing is necessary for the performance of our contract with you
or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(b)
GDPR). Insofar as voluntary information is concerned, we rely on your consent
by providing us with this data (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), or on
our legitimate interest in offering you the best possible placement opportunities (Art. 6
(1)(f) GDPR).
Identity verification and compliance (KYC): The processing of identity data and
KYC evidence from investors serves to verify your identity,
prevent fraud and, where applicable, fulfil legal due diligence obligations, such as
those under money laundering laws or other compliance regulations. For example, we may request a
copy of a passport or other documents to verify the identity and credibility of a
potential buyer before sensitive company information is disclosed in the
data room.
Legal basis: Where applicable, this is done to fulfil legal obligations
(Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR) – for example, where laws on financial market regulation or
money laundering prevention are relevant. In the absence of a specific legal
obligation, we base the verification on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)
GDPR) in ensuring a secure environment on the platform and preventing misuse
(e.g. identity fraud).
Matching, profiling and automated evaluation: Our platform uses partially
automated decision-making and profiling to provide you with suitable suggestions.
For example, we use the information you provide to calculate a matching score that indicates the suitability of a potential match. This is For example, we use the information you provide to calculate
a matching score that indicates the suitability of a potential match. This is
necessary in order to generate efficient and relevant suggestions from the large number of profiles
available. The automated evaluation is based on your profile information (industry,
criteria, preferences, etc.) and your behaviour on the platform (e.g. which
suggestions you have accepted or rejected).
Legal basis: This data processing is necessary for the provision of our services
(Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), as matching is a core component of the platform.
Insofar as a fully automated decision has legal effects or
similar significant adverse effects, you have the right to request human
intervention (see data subject rights below). As a rule, however, our
scores only serve as a decision-making aid without any conclusive effect – the final
decision on whether to make contact always rests with the users.
Training and improving AI: A specific purpose of data processing at our company is
the training and continuous development of our proprietary
AI systems, which are used for succession and matching consulting. In order to continuously improve the
quality of matching and consulting, we use real data
(profiles, behavioural data and, with your consent, data room documents) as
training data for our machine learning models. This purpose goes beyond the mere
fulfilment of the contract, as it serves to improve the service in the future.
Legal basis: We obtain your express consent for this (Art. 6(1)(a)
GDPR), in particular if we wish to use sensitive or confidential company data (such as
documents from your data room) for this purpose. Details on
consent for AI training can be found further down in this statement. Without your
consent, we will not use your personal data for further AI training;
you can therefore also use our platform without agreeing to AI training
(the functions may then be slightly less personalised
).
Analysis of user behaviour and platform optimisation: We process usage data
(e.g. click and conversion paths, frequency of logins, interactions with functions)
to analyse and improve the user experience, the usability of our platform
and to monitor the success of our matchmaking services. For example, we are interested in
statistics such as: Which profiles lead to matches more often? At which points
do users abandon the process? Which factors increase the success rate of a deal?
These insights help us to continuously improve our services, fix errors
and make matching more efficient for everyone.
Legal basis: Here, we rely on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in optimising the service in terms of technology and content and in operating it successfully from a business perspective.
Where required by applicable law (e.g. when using external web analytics cookies in the EU), we will obtain your consent in advance.
We use cookies to analyse the use of our website and to optimise it for you. Where required by applicable law (e.g. when using
external web analysis cookies in the EU), we will obtain your consent in advance. The
evaluation is usually carried out in aggregated or anonymised form; we only use personal
evaluations where absolutely necessary.
Contract processing and payment management: We use data on contract conclusions, payments and
performance indicators for the administrative processing of our services.
For example, we process information on whether a company sale brokered by us
has been completed in order to invoice a success fee, if applicable,
and store payment data and incoming payments for accounting purposes.
Legal basis: This processing is necessary for the performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), namely for the billing of our services in accordance with the Terms of Use.
Furthermore, we may be legally obliged to retain certain transaction data for tax and commercial law purposes (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).
We may also process your data for the purposes of data analysis, marketing, and optimisation of our services (Art. 6(1 Furthermore, we may be legally obliged to retain certain
transaction data for tax and commercial law purposes (Art. 6(1)(c)
GDPR).
Communication and support: We use your contact information to communicate with you
in connection with the performance of the contract – e.g. for notifications about new
match suggestions, status updates in the follow-up process or responses to
support requests. We will also inform you of any important changes to the platform or
this privacy policy.
Legal basis: Communication in connection with our service is carried out for the purpose of
contract fulfilment (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) or on the basis of our legitimate
interest in providing good customer service (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). For
marketing or newsletter communications that go beyond service-related information,
we will ask for your consent separately (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR),
if required by law.
Security and law enforcement: Finally, we may process data to ensure the
security of the platform (e.g. logging login attempts to
detect unauthorised access) and to enforce our legal claims or
defend ourselves against claims. This includes, for example, investigating
cases of abuse, storing relevant transactions as evidence, or
passing on information to authorities in the event of legal obligations.
Legal basis: Such processing is carried out on the basis of legitimate interests (Art.
6(1)(f) GDPR) in maintaining secure, lawful operations
and in fulfilling legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR), e.g.
there is a legal obligation to provide information.
Note on special categories of data: Our platform primarily targets
business data. We do not collect any special categories
of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 GDPR (e.g. data relating to health,
religious affiliation, biometric or genetic data), unless such
information is potentially contained in uploaded documents. Should this be the
case, we will only process such sensitive data with your express consent
or if another legal exception applies.
Data recipients and third-party disclosure
We treat your data confidentially and only disclose it to third parties if this is necessary for the performance of our services, if we are legally or contractually obliged to do so, or if you have consented to the disclosure.
The recipients of your personal data may include the following entities in particular:
The recipients of your personal data may include the following entities in particular:
Other users of the platform (matching partners): A core element of our platform is
to bring sellers and buyers together. Therefore, as part of a successful
matching process, the relevant profile data is exchanged between the parties involved.
For example, we provide a potential buyer with selected information about the
seller and their company (such as industry,
location, rough key figures and anonymised offer descriptions). Conversely,
if interested, a seller receives information about potential investors (e.g.
company name or name of the person, if disclosed, and their
investment profile).
Important: Sensitive details such as data room documents are only exchanged once both
sides are at an advanced stage in the process and the exchange is necessary (e.g. after
signing a confidentiality agreement, if applicable). The disclosure of
this data is based on your contractual use of the platform and
, if applicable, your approvals within the process.
Processors (external service providers): We use carefully selected
external service providers who process data on our behalf (processors).
These include, for example, IT and hosting providers who operate the platform and databases
(including cloud services for data storage and backup),
analysis service providers who support us in evaluating usage data, or
providers of email delivery and customer relationship management services. Where applicable,
AI infrastructure (e.g. cloud computing platforms on which AI models
are trained) or identity verification services (for KYC checks) may also be included.
Such service providers only receive access to the data they need to perform their
respective tasks and may not use it for their own purposes. We
conclude data processing agreements with all processors in which
they undertake to comply with data protection and data security in accordance with the applicable
laws.
Other authorised third parties: In certain cases, data may be disclosed to other
controllers, provided that there is a legal basis for doing so. This includes
in particular: authorities and official bodies, if we are legally obliged to provide information
(e.g. reporting suspicious activities in the context of
money laundering prevention or requests for information from tax authorities); advisors such as
solicitors or auditors, to the extent necessary to exercise our legal
claims or fulfil audit obligations (who are themselves subject to
confidentiality); or courts and counterparties, if data disclosure is required in the event of a dispute in the context of
legal proceedings. In all these cases, we take care
to disclose only the minimum amount of data necessary.
We do not sell personal data to third parties and do not market
data sets. Should a corporate restructuring (e.g. merger,
takeover) take place in the future that requires the transfer of personal data, we will
inform you in good time and comply with all legal requirements.
International data transfer
We generally process your data in Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA).
Economic Area (EEA). However, some of the above-mentioned data recipients
(in particular certain processors) may be located outside Switzerland or the EU/EEA
or process data there. For example, we may use cloud services or
IT providers whose servers are located in the USA.
International data transfer
We generally process your data in Switzerland and the European Economic Area (EEA).
However, it may happen that some of the above data recipients (in particular certain processors) are based outside Switzerland or the EEA or process data there. For example, we may transfer data to the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, South Africa, India,
data recipients (in particular certain processors) may be based outside
Switzerland or the EEA or process data there. For example, we may use
cloud services or IT providers whose servers are located in the United States or other
third countries.
When we transfer personal data to another country, we ensure
that appropriate data protection standards are met. Data transfers to
EU/EEA countries are permissible from a Swiss perspective due to the recognised adequate
level of data protection. For recipients in countries without an adequate
level of data protection (as assessed by the Swiss Federal Council or the
European Commission – e.g. the USA), we take additional protective measures. These include,
in particular, the conclusion of standard contractual clauses
of the EU Commission or the contractual clauses recognised by the EDÖB with the recipient,
supplemented, where necessary, by further precautions to ensure a level of protection comparable to
that provided by EU/CH law. In certain cases, we may also rely on your
express consent to transfer data abroad, if required by law
(Art. 17 revDSG).
We continuously monitor the legal situation regarding international data transfers. If,
for example, a recipient in the USA cannot offer sufficient protection or
if requests are received from courts or authorities, we will inform you – within the scope of what is permissible – and, if necessary, suspend the transfer. Your
permitted – and, if necessary, suspend the transfer. Your
data is always protected by appropriate technical and organisational measures
, regardless of where it is stored.
Duration of data storage
We only store personal data for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which we collected it and as we are legally entitled or obliged to do so.
The specific storage periods vary depending on the data category and processing purpose:
- For data that is no longer required for processing, we delete it immediately. The specific retention periods vary depending on the data category
and the purpose of processing:
Profile data: We store the basic profile data that you provide on the platform (company profile,
investor profile, etc.) for the duration of your registration on the platform.
platform. If you delete your user account or otherwise inform us that you no longer wish to
participate in the platform, we will remove your profile and the associated
personal data from our active systems. Please note that
in the event of inactivity (e.g. if you do not log in for a very long period of time
), we may also delete or anonymise your profile after giving prior notice.
.
Data room documents and transaction data: We only retain uploaded confidential documents (e.g.
contracts, balance sheets) for as long as the
succession/sale process is active. Once a deal has been concluded or it has been determined
that a sale will no longer take place, we will promptly delete these documents from the
data room, unless there is another reason to retain them. In
individual cases, longer storage may be necessary, for example if statutory
retention obligations apply or as long as you, as the seller, wish to continue to enable data exchange with
potential buyers. We document successful transactions
(deal closures) internally; we retain essential contract data and
payment transactions are retained in accordance with statutory accounting and
retention regulations (in Switzerland typically 10 years, analogous to Art. 958f
OR, and in many EU countries up to 10 years for tax-related documents).
Usage and tracking data: We generally store log files, clickstream data and similar
usage records for a short period of time in order to perform analyses
and resolve any technical issues. As a rule, such
data is anonymised or deleted after a few months. We may store aggregated evaluations (which
no longer refer to individuals) for longer, as they no longer have any
personal reference. If we use analytical cookies or similar technologies
, we will inform you about the storage period of these technologies in our cookie banner
; as a rule, you can also delete such cookies yourself at any time via your
browser.
Communication and support: We may store email enquiries or support tickets that contain personal data for documentation purposes. We retain business correspondence for the statutory retention periods (up to 10 years).
Pure communication metadata (e.g. logs of sent notifications) are typically deleted after 1-2 years, provided they are no longer required.
Pure communication metadata (e.g. logs of sent notifications) are
typically deleted after 1-2 years, provided they are no longer required.
Backups: Your data may still be present in our regular data backups
even after it has been deleted from the main system. We protect backups in the same way
and delete or overwrite them according to a defined rotation cycle.
Restoration of deleted data from backups only takes place in emergencies (e.g. in the event of
data loss in the production environment), and in such cases we ensure that
any restored data that should actually have been deleted is removed again
.
As soon as the processing of your personal data is no longer necessary for the aforementioned purposes
and there are no legal retention obligations or legitimate
reasons for further storage, we will delete or
anonymise the data. In cases where deletion is not immediately possible due to technical restrictions,
we will ensure that your data is blocked (i.e. excluded from further use) until it is finally deleted.
.
Data subject rights
As a data subject, you have various rights with regard to your personal data, depending on the applicable data protection law (Switzerland, EU, etc.). We respect these rights and can accommodate you at any time under the legal requirements. In particular, you have the following rights:
•Right to access your personal data
•Right to rectification
•Right to erasure
•Right to restriction of processing
•Right to data portability
•Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
•Right to object to processing
Right to information: You have the right to request confirmation as to whether we
process personal data relating to you and to obtain information about this data
(Art. 25 revDSG; Art. 15 GDPR). This includes information about the
categories of data processed, the purposes of processing, the recipients or categories
of recipients to whom the data has been disclosed, the planned storage period
or the criteria for determining it, and information about your other rights.
Upon request, we will be happy to provide you with a copy of your personal data
that is subject to processing.
Right to rectification: You have the right to have inaccurate or incomplete
personal data about you corrected (Art. 32(1) revDSG; Art. 16
GDPR). If, for example, your contact details change or you notice errors in the data we have stored,
please inform us so that we can correct the data.
You also have the option of changing certain information yourself in your user profile.
.
Right to erasure: You may request that we erase your personal data
if the legal requirements are met (Art. 32 revDSG within the scope of
privacy protection; Art. 17 GDPR). This is the case, for example, if the data is no longer necessary for the
purposes for which it was collected, if you revoke your
consent and there is no other legal basis, or if
the processing is unlawful. Please note that there may be exceptions,
for example if we are legally obliged to retain your data or need it to
assert legal claims. In such cases, we will initially block the data
instead of deleting it completely until the retention period expires.
Right to restriction of processing: In certain situations, you have the right to
request the restriction (blocking) of your data (Art. 18 GDPR). This means that
we may not further process your data, apart from storing it.
Such a right exists, for example, if you dispute the accuracy of the data (for the
period of time we need to verify this) or if you have objected to the
processing (for the period of time it takes to verify whether our legitimate reasons
prevail).
Right to data disclosure/portability: Under both the revDSG and Art. 20
GDPR, you may have the right to receive data that you have provided to us in a
common electronic format. Upon request – and as far as technically feasible –
we also enable you to have the data transferred directly to another controller
(data portability). However, this right only applies to data that you
provided to us and for processing based on your consent or for
contract fulfilment. For the platform, this means, for example, that you can receive the information you have entered in your
profile from us in a structured format.
.
Right to object to data processing: (relevant for EU/EEA users) Insofar as we base
processing on a legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you have
you have the right to object to this (Art. 21 GDPR) if there are reasons arising from your
particular situation that speak against this processing. For example, you can
object to the analysis of your user behaviour or the use of profiling for
personalised suggestions, unless this is necessary for the performance of a contract
. If you object, we will cease the relevant
processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that
outweigh your interests, or the processing serves to assert
legal claims. Note: The right to object to direct marketing (Art. 21(2)
GDPR) is absolute – you can object to the use of your data for advertising purposes at any time
and we will then no longer use your data for such purposes.
Right to withdraw consent: If we process your personal data on the basis of
consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time with
effect for the future. The withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the
processing that took place before the withdrawal. Specifically, you can, for example,
withdraw your consent to the use of your data for AI training or for marketing purposes
at any time. After your withdrawal, we will no longer use the data in question
for the corresponding purposes.
Further rights under Swiss law: Under Swiss data protection law, you also have
the right to have a so-called note of dispute added (Art. 32
paras. 2–3 revDSG) if we do not comply with a correction request (i.e. it is noted
that you dispute the accuracy of the data). In addition, data subjects may
file civil lawsuits for the protection of privacy if their
data protection rights are violated (Art. 28 ff. ZGB). Insofar as the revDSG does not
expressly standardise rights that are provided for in the GDPR (such as a formal
right to object), we nevertheless endeavour to take such concerns into account in accordance with the
law.
Exercising your rights: You can exercise your above-mentioned rights at any time in writing or
by e-mail to us. To do so, please use the contact details under
‘Responsible body and contact’ above (keyword ‘data protection request’). Please provide
sufficient information about yourself and the matter in question so that
we can assign your request and respond to it. We will process your request in accordance with the
legal requirements and respond to you within the specified
deadlines. If, in exceptional cases, it takes longer or there are any uncertainties,
we will inform you accordingly. Please note that if we have doubts about your identity,
we may request proof in order to protect your rights and data (so that no
unauthorised persons receive information about your data).
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you
believe that the processing of your personal data violates applicable
data protection law. In Switzerland, the competent supervisory authority is the
Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC). In the EU, you can
contact the competent data protection authority in your country of residence or the authority at the
registered office of our EU representative (if applicable). We would appreciate it if you would
first contact us directly so that we can resolve your concern together
.
Data security
We take appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse or destruction.
These include modern encryption methods for data transmission (e.g. TLS for our website), access restrictions based on the need-to-know principle,
and the use of secure servers. These include modern encryption methods for data transmission
(e.g. TLS for our website), access restrictions based on the need-to-know principle,
firewalls, regular security checks, internal data protection guidelines and
training. Our processors are contractually bound to high security standards.
However, please note that no internet transmission is ever 100% secure;
we are constantly improving our security measures to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
Protection of your data
Consent to the use of data for AI training
A key concern of this platform is the continuous improvement of AI-supported
succession and matching advice. In order to learn from past placements and optimise our
algorithms, we would like to use real data from our users' profiles and interactions
as training material for our artificial intelligence. As
this goes beyond the actual purpose of the placement and may also involve sensitive content (such as
confidential company documents in the data room), we require your
express consent for this. During registration or when entering data,
we will ask you separately to give us permission to use the
data you have provided for AI training.
What does consent cover? Your consent extends to us
using all information you provide – including uploaded
documents – in anonymised or pseudonymised form for the further development
of our AI models. Specifically, this means that your data could become part of
training data sets that our algorithms use to learn how to provide better matches
and recommendations. In the case of pseudonymised data, we ensure that direct
identifying features (e.g. names, contact details) are removed or replaced with codes
so that the AI can focus on content patterns. Training takes place in
a secure environment; the data is not made publicly available.
The AI models obtained from the training do not store any one-to-one
retrievable personal data, but rather abstract patterns and correlations.
Your consent to the use of your data for AI training is voluntary and can be
revoked at any time with future effect. You can revoke your consent by writing to us
or sending an email to the contact details listed under ‘Responsible body and contact details’.
Alternatively, we offer you [if applicable, a direct option in
your profile settings or a separate consent management area] for
revocation.
Voluntary nature of consent: Granting this consent is voluntary. You
can also use the platform and our brokerage services without
consent to AI training. If you do not consent, we will only process your
personal data for the direct provision of our service
(i.e. for brokerage and transaction processing), but will not feed it into our
continuous learning models. In this case, our AI recommendations may be
slightly less tailored to you personally, as it was not able to learn from
your data – however, all core functions will still be available to you.
Withdrawal of consent: You have the right to withdraw your consent to
AI training at any time with effect for the future (see also
Data subject rights above). Withdrawal of consent means that we will no longer use your future data
for AI training. We cannot completely extract historical data that has already been incorporated into the AI
from models that have already been trained; however, we will ensure that no further
personal details about you will be included in new training runs if you withdraw your consent.
revocation will not have any negative effects on your use of the platform – you will
continue to have access to all functions, and your existing data will continue to be used for
core mediation within the scope of the original purposes, but no longer
for new learning processes.
Transparency and control: If you have any questions about what data is used in AI training
or how exactly this works, you can contact us at any time. We
disclose what types of data are typically used (e.g. match results,
reasons for decisions, typical profile constellations) and assure you that no content
from confidential documents will be used in a way that allows conclusions to be drawn about your
company if this information is not already publicly known.
Your data will not be sold to third parties or passed on externally without restriction; the
AI training is carried out either in-house or with specialised processors under
strict control (see data recipients).
