We will not ordinarily use personal information for a purpose materially incompatible with the purpose for which it was collected unless permitted by law or an appropriate further basis for processing has been established.
Depending on the circumstances, we may process personal information where:
you have provided consent;
processing is necessary for a contract or proposed engagement with you;
processing is necessary to take steps requested by you before entering into a contract or relationship;

another lawful basis for processing exists under Zimbabwean law.
Where processing relies on consent, consent will be obtained in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Where permitted by law, you may withdraw consent previously provided. Withdrawal of consent will not affect processing lawfully undertaken before the withdrawal.
Certain information may be necessary for us to comply with regulatory requirements or to provide a requested service.
Where required information is not provided, we may be unable to establish, maintain or continue the relevant client, investment, advisory, transaction or other relationship.
Where permitted by law, we may communicate with existing or prospective clients, investors, counterparties and other contacts about:
SwitzView;
our investment management services;
advisory services;
capital solutions;
market publications;
research and insights;
events; and
other information that may reasonably be relevant to the recipient.
Submitting an enquiry to SwitzView does not, by itself, constitute consent to receive unrelated marketing communications where separate consent is required by law.
You may object to or opt out of direct marketing communications at any time and without charge by:
using an unsubscribe facility provided in the communication; or
contacting us at compliance@switzview.com.
We do not sell personal information to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies necessary for website functionality, security, performance, analytics or user experience.
Cookies are small data files that may be stored on your device when you visit a website.
Depending on the technologies implemented on our website, cookies may be used to:
enable essential website functions;
maintain website security;
improve website performance;
understand website usage;
remember user preferences; or
support other functionality disclosed to users.
Some cookies may be strictly necessary for the website to operate.
Where non-essential cookies, analytics technologies or similar tracking tools require consent under applicable law, they should only be used in accordance with the applicable consent and cookie-preference controls.
You may also control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.
Where SwitzView introduces or materially changes analytics, advertising, embedded-media or other third-party tracking technologies, this Privacy Policy and any applicable cookie controls will be reviewed and updated accordingly.
Where you submit information through a SwitzView website enquiry or contact form, we will use the information primarily to:
respond to your enquiry;
communicate with you;
understand the nature of your request;
assess a prospective client, investor, advisory or business relationship where relevant; and
take appropriate follow-up action requested by you.
Information submitted through an enquiry form will not automatically be treated as consent to unrelated marketing communications.
Our website may contain:
links to third-party websites;
embedded content;
maps;
videos;
social-media content; or
other services provided by third parties.
Third-party websites and services may process personal information independently under their own privacy policies and terms.
SwitzView is not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third-party websites merely because those websites or services are linked to or accessible from our website.
We encourage users to review the privacy notices of relevant third-party services before providing personal information to them.
We may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or where required or permitted by law.
Recipients may include:
SwitzView employees and authorised personnel;
directors and authorised governance personnel where appropriate;
professional advisers;
lawyers;
auditors;
accountants;
consultants;
banks;
custodians;
financial-service providers;
payment-service providers;
technology providers;
hosting providers;
cloud-service providers;
communications providers;
cybersecurity providers;
due-diligence providers;
identity-verification providers;
compliance-service providers;
transaction counterparties;
investors;
project sponsors;
lenders;
capital providers;
advisers participating in an authorised transaction;
regulators;
supervisory authorities;
courts;
law-enforcement agencies;
tax authorities;
government bodies; and
other persons to whom disclosure is required or permitted by law.
Information may also be disclosed in connection with a legitimate:
corporate restructuring;
merger;
acquisition;
investment;
financing;
disposal of assets or business interests; or
similar corporate transaction.
Service providers processing personal information on our behalf are expected to process it only for authorised purposes and maintain appropriate confidentiality, privacy and security safeguards.
We do not sell personal information.
SwitzView may engage third-party organisations to process personal information on our behalf.
Where applicable, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that such service providers:
process personal information only for authorised purposes;
maintain appropriate confidentiality;
implement appropriate security safeguards;
comply with applicable data protection requirements; and
appropriately protect personal information entrusted to them.
The extent of these controls will depend on the nature of the processing, information involved, risks and applicable legal requirements.
SwitzView operates in an environment in which investments, advisory engagements, capital providers, professional advisers and technology services may have an international dimension.
Some service providers, technology infrastructure, advisers, investors, capital providers, counterparties or other recipients may therefore be located outside Zimbabwe or may process information using systems located outside Zimbabwe.
Where personal information is transferred outside Zimbabwe, SwitzView will take appropriate measures to ensure that the transfer complies with applicable Zimbabwean data protection requirements.
Depending on the circumstances, these measures may include:
assessing the level of protection available in the receiving jurisdiction;
using appropriate contractual or other safeguards;
obtaining consent where required;
limiting information transferred to what is reasonably necessary; or
relying on another lawful cross-border transfer mechanism.
Cross-border processing does not remove SwitzView’s responsibility to appropriately protect personal information for which we remain the data controller.
We maintain administrative, organisational, physical and technical measures designed to protect personal information against:
unauthorised access;
unlawful processing;
accidental loss;
misuse;
unauthorised disclosure;
alteration;
destruction; and
other inappropriate processing.
Access to personal information is restricted according to legitimate business and operational requirements.
Employees, representatives and relevant service providers are expected to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security standards.
Security measures may include, where appropriate:
access controls;
authentication controls;
system-security measures;
network protection;
data-access restrictions;
backups;
confidentiality obligations;
staff awareness and training;
incident-management procedures; and
appropriate vendor controls.
No electronic transmission, information system or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
We therefore assess risks and implement safeguards having regard to the nature of the information, available technology and relevant operational and regulatory requirements.
SwitzView maintains processes for identifying, assessing, managing and responding to personal-data security incidents.
Where a personal-data breach occurs, we will take appropriate steps to:
contain the incident;
investigate its nature and cause;
assess the information and individuals affected;
mitigate potential harm;
preserve relevant evidence;
address underlying security weaknesses; and
make notifications required by applicable law.
Where required, SwitzView will notify the Data Protection Authority and affected persons within the applicable statutory requirements.
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for:
the purpose for which it was collected;
maintaining the relevant client, investment, advisory or business relationship;
providing our services;
completing transactions;
resolving disputes;
exercising or defending legal rights;
complying with legal requirements;
complying with regulatory requirements;
meeting accounting and tax requirements;
financial-crime prevention;
record keeping; or
another legitimate and lawful purpose.
Retention periods may therefore differ depending on:
the type of information;
nature of the relationship;
relevant transaction;
regulatory requirements;
legal obligations; and
potential claims or disputes.
Where personal information is no longer required, it will be deleted, destroyed, anonymised or otherwise securely disposed of where reasonably practicable and permitted by law.
Subject to applicable law and any lawful limitations, you may have rights concerning personal information held about you.
These may include the right to:
be informed about how your personal information is processed;
request confirmation that we process personal information concerning you;
request access to personal information we hold about you;
request correction of inaccurate personal information;
request completion of incomplete personal information;
request deletion or erasure where legally applicable;
object to certain processing;
request restriction of processing where applicable;
request data portability where applicable;
withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
object to direct marketing;
raise concerns regarding unlawful or inappropriate processing; and
request appropriate protection in relation to significant decisions based solely on automated processing where applicable.
These rights are subject to applicable legal and regulatory requirements and are not absolute.
For example, SwitzView may be legally required to retain information relating to:
investment activities;
transactions;
client identification;
anti-money laundering compliance;
regulatory reporting;
tax;
accounting;
legal claims; or
contractual obligations.
We may request reasonable proof of identity before responding to a data protection request in order to prevent unauthorised disclosure of personal information.
We aim to respond to valid data-subject requests within 30 days, subject to applicable law and the nature and complexity of the request.
SwitzView does not intend to subject individuals to decisions producing significant legal or similar effects solely through automated processing unless such processing is permitted by law and appropriate safeguards are in place.
Where SwitzView introduces automated processing of this nature in the future, affected persons will be provided with appropriate information and protections in accordance with applicable law.
SwitzView’s website and financial services are not directed specifically at children.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from persons under eighteen years of age through the website without an appropriate lawful basis and, where required, the involvement or consent of a parent or legal guardian.
If we become aware that children’s personal information has been collected in circumstances inconsistent with applicable law, we will take appropriate corrective action.
Questions, concerns, complaints or requests relating to personal information should be directed to SwitzView’s Data Protection Officer.
