The protection of your privacy and your personal data is very important to the Sauber Group. For this reason, the collection and processing of personal data by the Sauber Group is carried out in compliance with the statutory provisions (Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP)).
Sauber Motorsport AG, a company registered in Switzerland under company number CHE-106.955.725 ("we" or "us"), is the controller and responsible for data processing.
With this privacy policy, we inform you about what data from you we process, what we need this data for and how you can object to the data processing.

We use the following social plugins on our website: Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. You can recognize the social plugins by the respective icon that is placed on our website. When you interact with this social plugin, e.g. when you click on the symbol on our website, the information collected by the social plugin is forwarded and your visit by Instagram, Twitter and Facebook is recognised. Further information on how our social media partners process the personal data that they collect about you can be found in the respective social media providers' data privacy notices.
In addition, we collect and process data about you when you request data from us or provide data to us. We may also process your personal data to the extent that we are legally obliged to do so, in order to defend, exercise or establish a legal claim, or for a purpose that is in our legitimate interest.
If you share personal data of third parties with us, for example personal details of employees of your company, of customers or clients, you are obliged to obtain the consent of the persons concerned in advance and to inform them about these data protection provisions.
Personal data may be processed by us and/or our affiliates, agents, vendors, consultants or suppliers and any third party service providers who provide certain services on our behalf for the purposes of this Agreement. Such third parties will have access to personal data solely for the purpose of providing the above services or to comply with applicable law, and not for any other purpose (unless you instruct us to transfer personal information and/or documents to another service provider, in which case that service provider will be granted the access to your personal data that you expressly authorise us to grant, or otherwise pursuant to an applicable contract between you and the service provider). We require these
third parties to implement security measures that are equivalent to the protections specified in this Privacy Policy. Such third parties may be located in or outside of Switzerland.
Disclosure of information to third parties may also be made in accordance with, or where it is required by, any contractual relationship we have with you or where you have given your consent. In addition, we may be required by law or court order to disclose to relevant regulatory, law enforcement and/or other competent authorities certain information about you or about contracts we have with you, unless such information is protected by confidentiality obligations we have to our partners or others. We may also need to share your information to enforce or apply our legal rights.
Aggregate information and statistics for the purpose of monitoring website usage may also be provided by us to third parties. These statistics do not include information that can be used to identify you because the information is anonymised and ‘de-identified’. Further information can be found below in our Cookie Policy.
In principle, data processing takes place in Switzerland and the EEA/EU area.
In connection with the supply of our services and/or products, personal data may also be transferred, if necessary, to countries or territories outside Switzerland or the European Economic Area (EEA), in which case we will provide contractual protection if those territories do not offer an adequate level of data protection comparable to that in Switzerland or the EEA. For this purpose, we regularly use the revised standard contractual clauses of the European Commission (which can be accessed here: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2021/914/oj?) unless the recipients are subject to another statutory set of data protection regulations or we can rely on a statutory exception. In particular, we may collect and transfer your personal data to countries outside Switzerland: With your consent, to perform a contract with you, or to meet a compelling legitimate interest that we may have, unless your rights and freedoms are overridden.
The personal data collected by us in connection with a contractual relationship will be stored or retained at least until the expiry of the statutory retention obligation. After expiry of the respective retention periods, we delete or destroy your personal data completely, unless you have agreed to a longer retention period or have commissioned us with a longer retention period.
If we have acquired your data through an enquiry, for marketing purposes, visiting our website or for similar purposes, we will delete the data obtained in such a situation as soon as the storage of the data is no longer necessary, or we will restrict the processing if there are legal retention obligations.
We use reasonable physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect the personal information we receive from you against loss, misuse and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. Please note that we are not responsible for the security of any information you transmit over the Internet, or for any information you store, post or provide directly to a third party website that is subject to that third party’s policies. Please be advised that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure and we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. Any transmission of your data using these methods is therefore at your own risk.
You have the right at any time to:
