Politique de confidentialité

Une politique de confidentialité est un élément essentiel pour toute entreprise qui collecte des données personnelles. Elle doit divulguer de manière transparente la manière dont les données sont collectées, utilisées, partagées et protégées. En tant que plateforme de conseil juridique, Legal-Verify peut vous aider à élaborer une politique de confidentialité conforme à la législation en vigueur et adaptée à vos besoins spécifiques.

Une politique de confidentialité doit répondre à des exigences légales strictes et doit être facilement accessible à tous les visiteurs de votre site. Elle doit détailler les types de données collectées, la manière dont elles sont utilisées, les tiers avec lesquels elles sont partagées, ainsi que les mesures de sécurité mises en place pour les protéger.

Voici quelques exemples de contenu que vous pouvez inclure dans votre politique de confidentialité :
- Les informations personnelles collectées
- Les méthodes de collecte des données
- Les raisons de la collecte des données
- Les destinataires des données
- La localisation de stockage des données
- La durée de conservation des données
- Les mesures de sécurité des données
- Les mises à jour de la politique de confidentialité

​​​General Conditions

1. Engagement

Legal Verify Sàrl (hereinafter "LV") submits a proposal (the "Proposal") on which the potential client (hereinafter the "Client") may rely to submit their offer. The Proposal is valid for thirty (30) days from its date of issuance, unless otherwise stated. It serves as the basis for the Client’s offer, which must be submitted in writing (including by email).

Upon receipt of the Client's offer, LV will review it before accepting it in writing, if applicable. It is expressly understood that any payment made by the Client prior to LV's written acceptance of the offer does not constitute or confirm the conclusion of a contract. The contract between LV and the Client is deemed concluded only upon LV’s written acceptance of the Client’s offer. No contract exists before such acceptance.

The scope of LV's engagement is determined by the circumstances, facts, and instructions provided by the Client. The Client shall ensure that LV receives all information reasonably required to perform its mandate (Art. 394 et seq. CO). LV may assume that the circumstances, facts, and instructions provided by the Client are accurate and complete.

LV is the contracting party of the Client and is responsible for the services and advice provided by any partner or employee of LV. Every mandate is deemed to have been given to LV, even if the Client has explicitly or implicitly requested that a specific person perform the work.

Unless expressly requested by the Client, LV will not verify the information or instructions provided by the Client or other persons on behalf of the Client, and the Client acknowledges that LV is entitled to rely on such information or instructions when performing its duties.

LV may refuse a mandate or cease to act for the Client in accordance with its statutory, professional, or internal rules, if a conflict exists between LV's obligations to the Client and to other clients, or between LV's interests and the Client’s interests.

The Client acknowledges that, by accepting a mandate, LV does not grant exclusivity for the provision of legal or other services related to a specific business or market. Subject to legal and professional rules, LV may act for other clients in transactions, disputes, or other matters in which the Client or any affiliated entity or related person has an interest, provided that LV does not thereby breach its obligations to the Client. 

2. Confidentiality

LV is not subject to attorney-client privilege but undertakes to treat as confidential all information obtained from the Client. LV ensures the protection of personal data in accordance with the Swiss Federal Data Protection Act (FADP).

LV's confidentiality obligations do not apply to information (i) that can be proven to have been lawfully obtained from third parties, (ii) that was generally known to the public at the time of LV’s engagement, or (iii) that becomes generally known to the public after LV’s engagement without breach of confidentiality under these Terms.

3. Fees, Expenses, and VAT

All fees are stated in Swiss francs (CHF) and are exclusive of value-added tax (VAT), where applicable. Any VAT owed by LV will be invoiced to the Client. Any applicable foreign taxes, withholding taxes, or similar charges are borne by or charged to the Client.

Unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing, any quote, estimate, or indication of anticipated fees is non-binding. Any quote, estimate, indication, fixed fee, or fee cap excludes VAT, disbursements, and ancillary costs.

Disbursements include all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the assignment (such as court fees, notarial fees, travel expenses, courier services, translations, or third-party costs). In addition, a flat-rate surcharge of 3% of the fees is applied to cover general administrative and operational costs, including but not limited to postal charges, telephone costs, IT infrastructure, legal and research databases, document management systems, and similar overhead expenses. This surcharge is due irrespective of the actual amount of such costs. VAT amounts may be rounded to CHF 0.05 in accordance with the guidelines of the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (FTA). Rounding is applied per VAT rate on the invoice. Rounded amounts are deemed legally compliant.

LV may request an advance payment before commencing the assignment. Invoices are payable within ten (10) days from the invoice date. In the event of late payment, default interest at a rate of 5% per annum is due automatically, without the need for a reminder.

4. Communication and Documents

The Client agrees that LV may use electronic means, without encryption, when communicating with the Client or third parties concerning the Client’s matters. The Client acknowledges that electronic communications, such as email, fax, or Internet-based applications, carry risks including, in particular, the risk that third parties may access or alter the communication, that a communication may not be received by the intended recipient(s), that the communication may be infected with computer viruses, manipulated or corrupted, or misdirected, delayed, or lost.

The Client acknowledges and agrees that files may be archived in any form deemed appropriate by LV (electronically, physically, or otherwise) and may, unless otherwise agreed, be destroyed or deleted without prior notice after ten years. LV will return original documents provided by the Client upon request at the end of the mandate.

The Client is further informed and agrees that, in the course of delivering certain services (including proofreading, analysis, or content generation), LV may use artificial intelligence (AI) systems, including those operated by third-party providers. This may involve the transfer or processing of data outside of Legal Verify.ch, LV, and outside Switzerland, to countries that may not have data protection standards equivalent to Swiss law. LV undertakes to restrict such transfers to what is strictly necessary and to select providers offering reasonable security assurances.

5. Limitation of Liability

LV's liability for any claim, damage, loss, or liability arising out of or in connection with the provision of legal advice or services under this contract, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, is excluded in cases of slight fault or simple negligence. In particular, any liability for minor errors or unintentional omissions is excluded.

LV's liability shall only be incurred in cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct. Under no circumstances shall LV be liable for indirect, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, business interruptions, or reputational harm.

LV's total liability, if any, is limited to the amount of fees actually paid by the Client for the specific services rendered under this contract.

The Client hereby agrees not to bring any claims or proceedings and waives all claims against LV’s employees, of counsel, consultants, partners, affiliates, or auxiliaries.

LV’s advice is provided exclusively for the use and benefit of the Client. It may not be used or relied upon for other purposes or disclosed to third parties without LV’s prior written consent.

LV disclaims any responsibility for advice given by other providers or advisors of the Client. Unless specifically agreed, LV is not responsible for foreign legal advice or tax advice. LV is under no obligation to update its advice once given.

LV reserves the right to decline any mandate at any time. In the event of refusal, any fees paid for services not yet rendered will be refunded. LV shall not be liable for any costs or losses incurred by the Client as a result of such refusal.

6. Termination

Both the Client and LV have the right to unilaterally terminate the mandate and any power of attorney issued on its basis at any time (Art. 404 CO). Termination must be notified in writing. Fees, expenses, and disbursements incurred up to the date of termination, as well as those necessarily related to the cessation of LV’s work or the transfer to another advisor selected by the Client, shall be borne by the Client.

Sections 2 (Confidentiality), 4 (Communication and Documents), 5 (Limitation of Liability), and 7 (Governing Law and Jurisdiction) shall survive termination of the engagement.

7. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

The relationship between LV and the Client is governed exclusively by Swiss law, excluding its conflict of law rules and any international treaties.

Any dispute arising out of or in connection with the relationship between the Client and LV shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Canton and Republic of Geneva (Switzerland).

8. Miscellaneous

LV reserves the right to use external service providers or collaborators in executing the mandate. LV remains responsible for the quality of services provided by such third parties. In the event of discrepancies between language versions of these General Terms and Conditions, the French version shall prevail.

LV reserves the right to modify these General Terms and Conditions at any time. The current version is always available on the website [www.legal-verify.ch](http://www.legal-verify.ch). The Client acknowledges that it is their responsibility to review the General Terms and Conditions before each new engagement, unless they have been expressly provided by LV.
