This Privacy Policy explains how entropyseal (“entropyseal,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information when you visit entropyseal.com, subscribe to updates, or contact us.

entropyseal is based in Zürich, Switzerland.

1. What this website is

entropyseal.com provides information about entropyseal, a reusable tamper-evident jar concept, prototype, and related updates. The website may allow visitors to subscribe to a mailing list to receive updates about the project.
 

2. Personal information we collect

We may collect the following types of personal information:

Information you provide directly

When you subscribe to updates, contact us, or otherwise interact with the website, we may collect:

  • Your email address

  • Your name, if you provide it

  • Your message content, if you contact us

  • Any other information you voluntarily provide

Information collected automatically

When you visit the website, certain technical information may be collected automatically by our website platform, hosting provider, analytics tools, or security tools. This may include:

  • IP address

  • Browser type and version

  • Device type

  • Operating system

  • Pages visited

  • Date and time of visit

  • Referring website

  • Cookie and similar technology data
     

3. How we use your information

We use personal information for the following purposes:

  • To operate and maintain the website

  • To send updates to people who subscribe to the mailing list

  • To respond to questions, requests, or messages

  • To improve the website and understand general visitor interest

  • To protect the website from spam, abuse, security threats, or technical problems

  • To comply with legal obligations
     

4. Legal basis for processing

Where applicable, we process personal information on one or more of the following legal bases:

  • Legitimate interests, such as operating, securing, and improving the website

  • Contractual necessity, if communication with you is required in connection with a request or future transaction

  • Legal obligation, where we must process or retain information to comply with applicable law

Swiss data protection law protects the personality and fundamental rights of individuals whose personal data is processed. If the EU/UK GDPR applies, privacy notices should provide information such as the controller’s identity, purposes of processing, retention periods, and user rights.
 

5. Mailing list

If you subscribe to our mailing list, we will use your email address to send entropyseal-related updates.

You may unsubscribe or opt out of email communication at any time by contacting us at:

hello(at)entropyseal.com

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information.
 

6. Cookies and similar technologies

The website may use cookies or similar technologies. Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help websites function, remember preferences, improve security, or understand site usage.

Depending on the website configuration, cookies may be used for:

  • Essential website functionality

  • Security and fraud prevention

  • Analytics and performance measurement

  • User preferences

  • Mailing list or form functionality

If the website is hosted or built using a third-party platform such as Wix, that platform may also place cookies necessary for site operation, security, analytics, or service delivery.

You can usually disable or delete cookies through your browser settings. Some parts of the website may not function properly if cookies are disabled.
 

7. Third-party service providers

We may use third-party service providers to operate the website and related services, such as:

  • Website hosting and website-building platforms

  • Email or mailing list tools

  • Analytics providers

  • Spam prevention or security tools

  • Communication providers

These providers may process personal information on our behalf or according to their own privacy policies. We only use such providers where necessary for the operation, security, communication, or improvement of the website.
 

8. Links to other websites

entropyseal.com may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites. You should review the privacy policy of any external website you visit.
 

9. International data transfers

Because website platforms, hosting providers, email providers, analytics tools, or other service providers may operate in different countries, your information may be processed outside Switzerland or your country of residence.

Where required, we take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information receives appropriate protection when transferred internationally.
 

10. Data retention

We keep personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

For example:

  • Mailing list information is kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.

  • Contact messages may be kept as long as needed to respond and maintain reasonable records.

  • Technical logs may be kept for a limited period for security, troubleshooting, and website operation.
     

11. Data security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, email system, or internet transmission is completely secure. You should avoid sending highly sensitive information through website forms or ordinary email.
