This Privacy and Data Policy describes how your personal data is collected, used, and protected when you order a personalised song from MILA Kamila Szymańska, an independent artist based in Switzerland. This service is currently operated on a small, private scale for artistic and creative purposes. If the activity expands into a registered business, this policy will be updated accordingly.
1. Controller and Contact
The controller responsible for processing your personal data is:
MILA Kamila Szymańska
Independent artist based in: Ticino, Switzerland
Email: kamila8@gmx.ch
If you have any questions about data protection or your personal data, please contact me at the above email address.
2. Purpose of Data Collection
Your personal data is collected and processed solely for the purpose of creating, producing, and delivering your personalised song, and for communication directly related to your order. Specifically, your data may be used to:
- Receive and manage your song request,
- Compose and record the song based on your input,
- Send drafts, discuss creative details, and deliver the final version,
- Handle payment and order confirmations,
- Comply with basic legal and accounting requirements (if applicable).
Your data is never sold, shared, or used for unrelated marketing purposes.
3. Data Collected
Depending on your order, I may collect:
- Contact information: name, email, and (optional) phone number,
- Creative input: text, story, or personal details you voluntarily share,
- Payment data: basic transaction details (processed securely by third-party services; I do not store card or bank data),
- Communication history: emails or messages about your order.
Only data necessary to fulfil your order is collected.
4. Legal Basis
Processing is based on:
- Your consent (when you provide information for your song), and/or
- The performance of a contract (your order and my delivery).
You may withdraw consent at any time. I will delete your data unless retention is required by law (e.g., for accounting).
5. Data Retention
- Song-related files & communication: kept up to 12 months,
- Accounting/payment data (if applicable): up to 10 years per Swiss tax law.
You may request earlier deletion by email.
6. Data Sharing
Your data may be shared only with:
- Technical service providers (email, hosting, payment processor),
- Musicians or collaborators (under strict confidentiality).
No data is shared for marketing. If this service becomes a registered business, all partners will be bound by data processing agreements compliant with Swiss FADP and EU GDPR.
7. International Data Transfers
The website operates from Switzerland. Data transfers between Switzerland and the EU/EEA benefit from Switzerland’s “adequate” data protection status. If data is processed outside these regions (e.g., cloud storage), safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses will be used.
8. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access your personal data,
- Request correction or deletion,
- Withdraw consent,
- Receive a portable copy of your data,
- Object to processing in specific circumstances.
To exercise these rights, email kamila8@gmx.ch. I will respond within the time limits required by Swiss or EU law.
9. Security Measures
I implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data, including secure email, password protection, and reputable hosting/payment providers. While no system is 100% secure, I will notify you of any breach as required by law.
10. Cookies and Analytics
This website may use cookies for basic functionality and anonymous analytics. No marketing or tracking cookies are used without your consent. You may disable cookies via your browser settings.
11. Children and Sensitive Information
This service is for adults. If your song involves a child or sensitive topics, ensure you have proper consent. Do not send confidential, medical, or highly sensitive personal information—only creative details needed for the song.
12. Portfolio Use
Your song will be delivered privately and not published without your explicit written consent. Portfolio sharing (e.g., short excerpts) is based on voluntary, revocable consent.
13. Policy Updates
This policy may be updated to reflect changes in services, practices, or laws. The latest version will always be available here, with the update date shown at the top.
14. Supervisory Authority
If you have unresolved concerns, you may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) in Switzerland.
