v2

* i2 group consists of several group companies such as, but to limited to, i2 invest ag, in Zug/Switzerland and ANTHEDON AG PCC, in Schaan/Liechtenstein.

Please read through the following provisions carefully

Introductory remarks

i2 group is highly interested in the security of personal data provided by you when you visit our website and use our i2 Software (i.e. i2 products and services). We understand that the release of sensitive information to us involves trust. For this reason, i2 group has taken measures to ensure the security of the (personal) data. By means of this Data Protection Statement, i2 group would like to inform you about the type, scope, and purpose of personal data collected, used, and processed by us. Furthermore, this Data Protection Statement shall inform affected persons about their rights.

By using our website and, as the case may be, with the creation of a personal account with the i2 Software, you declare to accept the subsequent Data Protection Statement as well as the depicted kind of elicitation, editing and usage of the data in it.

Importantly, we edit the Data Protection Statement from time to time without explicitly informing you and that only the latest version (located on the i2 group’s website and contained in i2 group products and services) is valid and binding. Thus, a periodic review of the Data Protection Statement is highly recommended. This Statement can be accessed by clicking on “Data Protection Statement” which is accessible in the footer of every page at any given moment. Additionally, this statement can be accessed via i2 Software.

You are not under an obligation to provide us with your personal information. However, we need your information partly because the law requires us to ask for certain details about you and partly so that we can offer products and services to you in accordance with our agreement with you. This means that if you don't provide us with the information we ask for, we might not be able to offer you our full services.

The following Data Protection Statement provides an overview of the collection, editing, processing, and using of your personal data in accordance with the relevant law(s) and how we ensure data protection in regards to i2 group products and services.

Although the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”) is a European Union (the “EU”) regulation it is relevant for i2 group, inter alia, due to the fact that (i) Liechtenstein/Swiss Data Protection legislation is historically closely tied to EU regulations and (ii) we offer our services not only in Switzerland/Liechtenstein but also in the EU as well.

Anticipated changes to the Swiss/Liechtenstein Data Protection landscape are strongly influenced by the GDPR. The GDPR imposes high standards of personal data protection with extra-territorial reach which means that companies based outside the EU are in certain circumstances bound by its provisions as well. We therefore kindly ask you to familiarise yourself with this Data Protection Statement.

Which data will be collected, processed and used?

The kind and extent of an elicitation and usage of your data differs on how you use i2 group products and services.

Different approaches are based on whether you use the website purely for informative reasons or whether you utilize the open services (e.g. application for the newsletter) and/or whether you utilize the closed and secure areas of the i2 Software. The latter is only accessible after prior registration, signing a Confidentiality and Intellectual Property (the “IP”) Statement, and you are provided with a personal login. Also, the secure areas are only available for a limited group of users.

Third party contractors obtain data only to an essential extent and are obligated to use the data only for order fulfillment and not for other purposes.
Furthermore, disclosure of your data towards controlling authorities, legal authorities and other responsible people is only explicitly legitimate if the applicable law says so.

The data collected by i2 group are under the highest confidentiality standards and are treated with the utmost care and discretion. This website has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information. We use technology to protect the security of information transmitted. We use a firewall to prevent unauthorized access to our system.

Sources, data and storage
We process personal data that we obtain from potential clients in the context of our business relationship.
We also process – insofar as necessary to provide our services – personal data that we obtain with permission from publicly accessible sources (e.g. debt registers, commercial, and association registers, press, internet) or that is legitimately transferred to us from other third parties (e.g. a credit rating agency).
Relevant data is personal information (e.g. name, address and other contact details, date and place of birth, and nationality), identification data (e.g. ID card details), and authentication data (e.g. sample signature). Furthermore, this can also be order data (e.g. payment order), data from the fulfillment of our contractual obligations (e.g. sales data in payment transactions), information about your financial situation (e.g. creditworthiness data, scoring/rating data, origin of assets), marketing and sales data (including advertising scores), documentation data (e.g. consultation protocol), and other data similar to the categories mentioned.
The data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT enabled tools, following organizational procedures and modes strictly related to the purposes indicated. In addition to the data controller, in some cases, the data may be accessible to certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of the site (administration, marketing, legal, system administration) or external parties in Liechtenstein, Switzerland or abroad (such as third party technical service, providers, servers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communication agencies) appointed, if necessary, as data processors by the owner. The updated list of these parties may be requested from the data controller at any time.
All data is stored on servers within Europe, whose data centers fulfill strict security requirements and only for as long as the purpose or legal regulations require.

Disclosure / deletion of data / your rights
In accordance with, and as far as provided by, applicable law, you have the right to revoke your consent, on which the processing was based and accordingly (i) the right to access, rectification, and erasure of your personal data, (ii) the right to restriction of processing or to object to our data processing in addition to (iii) the right to receive certain personal data for transfer to another controller (data portability).
Please note, however, that we reserve the right to enforce statutory restrictions on our part, for example if we are obliged to retain or process certain data, we have an overriding interest (insofar as we may invoke such interests). If exercising certain rights will incur costs on you, we will notify you thereof in advance. There may be occasions when you wish to exercise one of your rights and we're unable to agree with your request, e.g. because we have compelling legitimate grounds for using your information, or because we need to keep your information to comply with a legal obligation.
In general, exercising these rights requires that you are able to prove your identity (e.g. by a copy of identification documents where your identity is not evident otherwise or can be verified in another way). In order to assert these rights, please contact us at one of the above-mentioned addresses.
In addition, every data subject has the right to enforce your rights in court or to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority.
