VINCI Energies Switzerland AG, headquartered in Zurich (hereinafter referred to as “VINCI Energies Switzerland” or “we”), operates the website www.bnc.ch (hereinafter referred to as the “website”) and the services offered on it. When you visit this website or contact us via email and other collaboration tools (such as MS Teams, support site), as well as during any further collaboration between you and BNC (e.g., during an ongoing contractual relationship), you provide us with personal data (hereinafter referred to as “data”). This data is also processed by BNC with the help of external services. The services listed in this privacy policy are referred to hereinafter as “data systems.”

Your data and its proper handling are very important to us. We process your data in compliance with applicable data protection laws. All data processing is carried out in accordance with Swiss law and, where applicable, the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

In this privacy policy, we transparently inform you about how we use your data in connection with the mentioned data systems and explain, among other things, which data we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have regarding the use of your data.

For convenience, this privacy policy may be made available in multiple languages. However, in the event of any conflict or discrepancy between the German version and a translated version, the German version shall prevail and be legally binding.

Who is responsible for processing your data?

The controller is the person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. For the data processing mentioned in this privacy policy, the controller is 

VINCI Energies Schweiz AG
Datenschutzteam
Pfingstweidstrasse 106

We are therefore responsible for the collection, processing and use (hereinafter referred to as processing) of your personal data on our website.

If you have any questions regarding data protection, wish to exercise your data protection rights, or have any concerns related to the processing of personal data in connection with job applications, please contact our data protection representative by sending an email to datenschutz@vinci-energies.ch.

Please note that when communicating via unencrypted email, we cannot guarantee the complete security of data during transmission to our IT systems. Therefore, for confidential information, we recommend using encrypted communication or postal mail.

When and how do we process your data?

Which sub-processors are involved in data processing? 

Basis for Data Processing 

Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, the legal basis is Art. 30 para. 2 lit. b of the Swiss Data Protection Act (FADP), or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, the legal basis is Art. 31 para. 1 FADP, or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. This also applies to processing operations necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures.

Where the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, the legal basis is Art. 31 para. 1 FADP, or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR.

In cases where the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, the legal basis is Art. 31 para. 1 FADP, or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR.

If the processing is necessary for the purposes of a legitimate interest pursued by our company or a third party, and such interest is not overridden by the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject, the legal basis is Art. 31 paras. 1 and 2 FADP, or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Disclosure of Your Data

We only disclose your personal data to third parties if you have expressly given your consent, if there is a legal obligation to do so, or if it is necessary for the enforcement of our rights, in particular for asserting claims arising from a contractual relationship. In addition, we share your data with external service providers (e.g., in the case of online applications—see relevant section above) to the extent necessary for contract execution. In particular, it is possible that our external IT service providers may temporarily access your data if required to resolve IT issues.

These service providers use your data exclusively for the purpose of fulfilling their contractual obligations and not for any other purposes.

As part of the application process, the information you provide will be shared with all decision-makers involved in the recruitment process (typically HR and potential supervisors). For certain positions, we may—subject to the candidate's consent—commission an external assessment. To ensure impartiality, this assessment is conducted externally, and personal data is shared with our external partner for this purpose. Furthermore, we may process personal data to conduct statistical evaluations (e.g., application timing), but such processing is carried out in an aggregated and anonymized form.

Data Retention Period

How Do We Protect Your Data? 

We protect your personal data during collection, storage and processing by taking appropriate technical and organizational measures against loss, destruction and manipulation as well as against access, modification or dissemination by unauthorized persons.  

We also take data protection within the company seriously. Our employees and the service companies commissioned by us have been sworn to secrecy and to comply with data protection regulations.
