4. WHY WE PROCESS PERSONAL DATA
We process personal data to operate, secure and improve the website, respond to questions and requests, provide current event information, manage newsletter subscriptions, understand how visitors use the website, prevent misuse and security incidents, document Swiss Throwdown events through photography and video, and comply with legal obligations.
5. WEBSITE HOSTING AND WIX
This website is created and hosted using services provided by Wix.com. Wix processes technical, website, form, contact, consent and communication data on our behalf. Wix and its service providers may process or store data in several countries, including the United States, Ireland and Israel. Where required, international transfers are protected through recognised safeguards.

When you access the website, technical information may be recorded automatically in server logs. We use this data to deliver the website, maintain stability, detect attacks and resolve technical issues. Log data is retained only for as long as required for these purposes or legal obligations.
7. CONTACT FORMS AND EMAIL
If you contact us, we process the information you provide to respond to your request and handle any necessary follow-up. We retain correspondence for as long as required to handle the request and, where relevant, to meet contractual or legal retention obligations.
8. NEWSLETTER AND EMAIL MARKETING
We send newsletters and event updates only where you have subscribed or another legal permission applies. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every marketing email or by contacting us. We may retain a minimal suppression record to ensure that we respect your choice.
