General Terms and Conditions:
I. Scope

The Order may be entered into electronically or in writing. The agreement between the Parties (“Agreement“) will commence as soon as Provider has accepted Customer’s Order.
- The Data Processing Agreement, Service Description & Terms are published on (https://www.unisto.com/digital-security-solutions/data-privacy/) and as amended from time to time by the Provider are an integral part of the Agreement (in their most recent, applicable version). In case of conflicts, the Service Descriptions & Terms and the Data Processing Agreement shall take precedence over these GTC.
- Any general terms and conditions of Customer are expressly excluded, even if referred to in the Order or any other document.
II. Subscription and Registration
- Customer is responsible for the accuracy of all information provided by it in the Order or otherwise through the Services or App (“Customer Information“) and of the Security Seals registered for use with the Services and assigned to its account by way of their serial number (“Seals“, and each a “Seal“). Customer acknowledges that any Seal may only be assigned to one account and Customer warrants that it alone is entitled to use the Seals listed in the Order or otherwise communicated to the Provider for use with the Services, for the duration of their registration with the Services.
- After having accepted the Order, Provider will open an account for Customer and provide Customer with credentials for an administrator login (“Administrator Credentials“) and with administrator rights.
- Customer may register employees or third parties as Users within the scope of its administrator rights provided to it by Provider. Provider will provide Authorized Users with credentials for a user login (“User Credentials“) and grant Users access according to Customer’s configuration. Customer will ensure that user rights are withdrawn in a timely manner as appropriate. For managing Users and their rights, Provider will provide Customer, as part of the Services, an online console, accessible via Internet using a standard web-browser (“Console“).
III. Provision of Services
- Provider provides Customer with the Services indicated in the Order and materially as described in the Service Descriptions & Terms, as amended from time to time. The Services shall be provided for the term of this Agreement, unless agreed otherwise or terminated prematurely in accordance with the Agreement. Where the Service Descriptions & Terms contain additional service-specific terms, these terms shall apply in addition to these GTC with regard to the respective Service.
- Customer is aware and agrees that the use of the Services requires:
- that Users have downloaded and installed the Unisto app (“App“) on their mobile devices, as available, subject to any conditions set forth by and in the relevant app store and to accepting the terms of use contained in the App, as may be amended from time to time by Provider (note that Provider does not guarantee that the App is and will remain available for the specific mobile devices and their operating systems as used by Customer);
- a functioning Internet connection and a functioning, activated compatible Bluetooth transceiver on the User’s mobile device and that Customer alone is responsible for ensuring both;
- the App being able to continuously communicate with the servers used by Provider in an unrestricted manner, regardless of whether the User has opened it or whether it runs in the background;
- the App being able to continuously obtain the GPS geo-location from the mobile device on which it is operated; and
- a properly authorized User has successfully logged into the App.
- Customer is further aware and accepts that its account can be accessed only through the App or the Console, but that in the case of the Console, the access is limited to accessing the Records (see Clause IV), and in the case of the App, the management of User access as described in Clause II is not possible.
- Provider has taken reasonable measures to protect the Services and the Records from unauthorized access, tampering and misuse. Customer agrees that it had ample opportunity to review such measures and considers them sufficient for its own purposes. Nevertheless, Customer is aware and accepts that unauthorized access and misuse of the Services, including the App and Console, cannot be excluded and that Provider does not guarantee the accuracy, timeliness and completeness of the Records including any information within the Services concerning the Seals or other aspects. Customer acknowledges that it uses the Services at its own risk.
- Provider provides reasonable support with regards to the App and the Services during its normal business hours. Any support beyond what is provided at the discretion of Provider is to be expressly agreed and shall be charged at Provider’s standard rates on a T/M basis, unless agreed otherwise.
- The Provider may use third party providers for the performance of the Services, for whose conduct it is liable as for its own. In particular, the Provider may use carefully selected cloud service providers. Where Provider uses commonly used cloud services (such as those from Microsoft, Google or AWS), Customer accepts that Provider’s obligations and liability under this Agreement with regard to their portion of the Services is limited to what Provider can obtain or claim from these cloud service providers back-to-back. Customer agrees that it had ample opportunity to understand which such cloud services Provider is using.
IV. Logs and further documentation
- Unless otherwise specified in the Service Description & Terms, Provider will log the use of the App and the Services, which includes logging any locking and unlocking procedures of the Seals assigned to Customer’s account by use of the App and the geolocation of the App as received from the mobile device (“Records“).
- Provider may provide further means within the App to document the proper use of the Seals, in particular the locking and unlocking procedures, as indicated in the Service Description & Terms (e.g., by uploading a photograph, where available). This documentation will also be stored in the Records and be part of them.
- Provider will store the Records for at least 90 days. It is Customer’s responsibility to ensure longer storage if necessary, as Provider is free to delete Records or restrict access to them after said time period. Provider is not required to undertake any backups of the Records; this is, as well, the responsibility of Customer, as is retrieval of the Records from the Service using the built-in export functionality (any support on the part of Provider, if any, shall be charged at Provider’s standard rates on a T/M basis).
- Subject to applicable data protection law, to maintaining confidentiality and the pseudonymization or anonymization of any User data, Customer agrees that Provider and its affiliates may use the Records and information on the usage of the Services and App for statistical analysis, improving the services and other own purposes under its own responsibility. Where confidentiality cannot be maintained, Provider shall have any information de-identified with regard to Customer, as well.
V. Customer’s Responsibilites
- The Customer shall use, and shall undertake that all Users use, the App, the Seals and the Services solely in accordance with the Agreement and only as intended and comply with any restrictions on the use of the App and the Services pursuant to the Service Descriptions & Terms and as communicated through the App or the Console. Further, Customer shall comply, and shall undertake that all Users comply, with all laws applicable to the Customer in connection with its use of the App, the Seals and the Services, including without limitation transportation law, customs law, data protection law and any industry self-regulation applicable to Customer.
- Customer will keep all Customer Information and information on Users up-to-date and will update them where necessary through the Console.
- Customer will ensure that User Credentials are kept confidential and otherwise secure, that they are not shared between Users and that they are revoked immediately upon indication of them being compromised.
- Customer is responsible for the conduct of its Users as it is for its own conduct; any User activity shall be considered an activity of Customer and authorized by it. Customer agrees to notify the Provider immediately of any unauthorized use of the Administrator Credentials or User Credentials, any other known or suspected breach of security or any other misconduct on its account (which, however, as such does not relieve Customer from its aforementioned responsibility).
- Customer ensures that its Users always use the latest version of the App. Customer accepts that the Services might otherwise no longer be usable or available or work properly.
- Customer is obliged to update the software on the Seals upon Provider’s request. The Customer will strictly adhere to Provider’s instructions for doing so, otherwise this may render the Seals unusable and any warranties to the Seals will be forfeited. Customer agrees that the contractual terms the Parties agreed on upon purchase of the Seal shall also apply to the updated software of the Seals.
- Customer shall, at its own cost and without undue delay, provide Provider any reasonably requested information and other support in providing the Services and fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement.
VI. Modification and Updates
- Provider may at any time modify the Services and the App in its sole discretion. This may include adding, changing and removing functionality, or adding new services. Customer accepts that data formats supported by the App or the Services may change as part of the foregoing.
- The implementation of such modifications may result in the App and the Services (including the Console) being unavailable for a certain period of time, or until the App has been updated by a User. Where reasonably possible, the Provider will inform Customer of such periods in advance.
VII. Intellectual Property
- Customer acknowledges and agrees that Provider shall own any and all intellectual property rights with regard to the App and the Services. Any reverse engineering is prohibited to the extent permitted by law.
- Provider hereby grants Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use, and permit Users to use, the App and the Services (including the Console) solely for Customer’s internal business purposes and in full compliance with this Agreement. The License is granted for the duration of the Agreement or the respective Service, whichever is shorter.
- Customer shall not license, sell, rent, lease, transfer, assign, distribute, display, host, disclose or otherwise commercially exploit or make the App or the Services available to any third party, save to its Users as expressly laid out herein.
VIII. Suspension
- Provider may, where reasonably possible with reasonable advance notice to Customer, suspend a User’s or Customer’s access to or use of the Services and the App, in total or in part, if Provider reasonably concludes that Customer’s or User’s use of the Services or a third-party activity (e.g., a cyber-attack) is causing or may cause harm to Provider, the Services or others.
- Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the issues causing the suspension and the suspension as soon as possible. Customer agrees that the Provider will not be liable to Customer or any third-party for any such suspension of a User’s or Customer’s access to or use of the Services or App.
IX. Fees and Invoice
- Customer owes the fees according to the Price List or as otherwise agreed (the Order shall take precedence over the Price List in case of conflicts), using the payment method offered by the Provider.
- Payment must be made in advance for each payment period, unless agreed otherwise in the Order. The fees are non-refundable, in particular in cases where the Services are not used.
- Should Customer fail to pay the invoiced fees within this period, it is automatically in default. In this case, Provider may charge a reasonable reminder fee and interest as per applicable law. If Customer subsequently fails to pay the invoiced fees within a reasonable grace period set by the Provider, Provider shall be entitled to restrict Customer’s ability to use the Services and the App, in total or in part, or terminate the Agreement or the Services extraordinarily in total or in part.
- If fees are usage-based, the use of the Services shall be deemed to be proven subject to any evidence to the contrary by Customer if it has been logged by the Service. Customer can access its usage data in its account through the Console. Any objection to such usage data logs shall be made within 10 days following the end of the calendar month in which they were created, as they are otherwise considered correct.
- Provider reserves the right to amend the fees with three months’ notice by the end of a calendar quarter. Any increase that cannot be based on inflation and other external factors (such as increased third-party costs) shall entitle Customer to extraordinarily terminate the Agreement within 30 days written notice upon being provided with the basis of the amendment of the fees by Provider. For amendments of the Price List that do not concern fees of Services currently subscribed by Customer or relate to other payment terms, the provisions for amending the Service Descriptions & Terms apply accordingly.
X. Warranty, Service Levels
- The Provider shall provide the Services “as is”. Any warranties not expressly agreed are hereby disclaimed to the extent permitted by law, including any warranty of a particular quality, functionality, fitness for purpose, compliance with applicable regulations, merchantability, non-infringement or title.
- Unless expressly agreed otherwise in a Service Level Agreement, the Services are provided on a “best effort” basis without any particular service levels.
- Should the Services deviate materially from the Service Description, Provider will make commercially reasonable efforts to remedy such deviations.
XI. Liability
- To the extent permitted by applicable law, Provider, its employees and auxiliary persons shall not be liable for any direct or indirect damages, consequential loss, loss-of-profit or third-party claims resulting from or in connection with the use of the Services or the App, loss or corruption of any Records or other data, delays, nondeliveries, misdeliveries, service interruptions, the infringement of third-party rights or otherwise.
XII. Customer’s indemnity
- Customer shall defend and indemnify Provider against any and all losses incurred by Provider arising out of or in connection with a claim by a third party (i) alleging that the Records, or any use thereof, infringes the rights of, or has caused harm to, a third party (e.g., if Records where to contain third-party personal data that Customer was not entitled to use within the Service), or (ii) arising out of Customer’s breach of its duties and obligations under this Agreement.
XIII. Data Protection
- Customer will act as controller, and Provider as its processor (each term as per the Swiss Data Protection Act, “CH-DPA“), with regards to any personal data processed in the Records, in particular any User, their geo-location and other own or third-party personal data provided by them, according to Clause IV. Customer will comply with all applicable data protection (including the CH-DPA) and employment laws and will use this data solely in accordance with applicable law and its representations (e.g., in privacy notices). Customer will inform its Users, as well as any other potential data subjects, about the collection and processing of their personal data and will get consent for the collection and processing of personal data, if and when required by applicable law. For the deletion of personal data as per applicable law, Customer will use the functions provided in the Services as necessary. Further obligations, in particular of Provider as Processor are specified in the Data Processing Agreement and as amended from time to time. If Customer is located in a country without an adequate level of data protection under the CH-DPA, Provider may require Customer to enter into additional agreements for compliance with applicable data protection law.
- Provider will act as controller with regards to the User Credentials and other Service and App usage information (including as necessary to invoice Customer), save for the processing of Records for Customer. As a controller, Provider will comply with the CH-DPA. Customer will support Provider as reasonably requested in its compliance with applicable law. In particular, Customer will make Provider’s privacy notice available to its Users and ensure that it will only permit those to be Users and provide their personal data whose personal data the Provider may lawfully process for the performance or in connection with this Agreement and as laid out in its privacy notice.
XIV. Confidentiality
- Each Party may have access to information that is confidential to the other Party (“Confidential Information“) and will apply appropriate measures to keep such Confidential Information confidential. For the purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall include any information that is clearly identified in writing at the time of disclosure as confidential as well as any information that, based on the circumstances under which it was disclosed, must reasonably be believed to be confidential. It shall include Records on the part of Customer, and any software code on the part of Provider (e.g., of the App, the Console or the Seals).
- For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not restrict provider (i) in responding to any order or other request from a competent public authority Provider deems appropriate to receive the Records or any other information related to Customer’s use of the Services, (ii) from disclosing any information as necessary in defending itself against third-party legal claims or pursuing potential misuse of the Services or App, and (iii) making use of any and all know-how gained from the provision of the Services, provided that Confidential Information is not disclosed to unauthorized third parties.
XV. Termination
- Unless a fixed term has been agreed, each Service will run until it is terminated. Each Service may be terminated by either Party with 30 days’ written notice at the end of each month. Any minimum term, as specified in the Order, is reserved. Termination of a Service does not affect the validity and term of the other Services. This Agreement shall continue to apply to these other Services.
- The Agreement can be terminated with 30 days’ written notice by either Party at the end of each month, again subject to any minimum term of a Service still running. With the termination of the Agreement, all Services are terminated.
- The Agreement will end automatically after 30 days if no Seal is assigned to Customer’s account or all Services have been terminated or expired.
- The right of each Party to terminate the Agreement extraordinarily for important reasons remains reserved. The material breach of this Agreement shall be considered an important reason, provided that if such breach can be remedied, the Party in breach shall be given a grace period of at least thirty (30) days to remedy such breach before the Agreement may be terminated. The non-compliance with the restrictions to use the Services and the non-payment of the fees shall be considered a material breach.
XVI. Various
A. Amendments

The proposed amendments will be notified to Customer at least thirty 30 days prior to the proposed effective date of the amendment in text form (including e-mail).

- The Parties have entered into a Main Contract (consisting of an Order, General Terms and Conditions, Service Descriptions & Terms and any other agreement referenced therein), to which this DPA is an integral part and according to which Provider as the Processor will process Personal Data for Customer as the Controller. With this Agreement, the Parties govern this processing for the purposes of the Swiss Data Protection Act (“CH-DPA“) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR“).
- The terms “Data Subject“, “Personal Data“, “Processing“, “Controller” and “Processor” shall have their meaning as under the CH-DPA and GDPR. “Country with an Adequate Level of Data Protection” shall mean a country or territory whose legislation ensures an adequate level of data protection according to both an adequacy decision by the European Commission and a corresponding assessment by the Federal Council.
- The subject matter, duration, nature and purpose of the Processing, as well as the types of Personal Data Processed and the categories Data Subjects, are specified in Exhibit A of this DPA.
B. Obligations of Customer
- Customer, as the Controller, confirms to Provider that:
- the engagement of, and instructions to, Provider are in compliance with the CH-DPA and, where applicable, the GDPR;
- it has made or obtained all notifications, registrations, regulatory approvals, and consents from relevant Data Subjects that are necessary for the lawful processing of Personal Data by Provider as a Processor according to the CH-DPA and, where applicable, the GDPR; and
- it shall promptly and in a compliant manner respond to all requests from Data Subjects exercising their rights under applicable data protection laws.
C. Processing of Personal Data by Provider
1. Provider is obliged to:
- to process Personal Data only for the purposes of Customer, only for the purpose of fulfilling the Main Contract and only in accordance with the documented instructions of Customer; this does not affect Provider’s right to process the data in anonymized form for its own purposes. The Main Contract, including this DPA, as well as the Services agreed upon by the parties in the Order and the configurations and options chosen by Customer and the instructions provided for in the Main Contract are the final and binding instructions of Customer, unless expressly agreed otherwise. If Customer wishes to adapt these instructions, it shall propose the amendments to Provider; insofar as no special process is provided for adapting the contract, the Provider shall examine the request for amendment in good faith; if the parties cannot agree on an amendment within thirty (30) days, Customer may extraordinarily terminate the Services affected by this (and the DPA for such Services), insofar it can show that the requested amendments refused by Provider are required for its compliance under applicable data protection law;
- not to disclose or transfer any Personal Data abroad, except:
- to Customer itself, its affiliates (if Personal Data is processed for them with Customer being their Processor) or to third parties in fulfillment of an instruction of Customer or its affiliates or as provided in the Main Contract (this does not apply to transfers to sub-Processors of Provider or other third parties engaged by the Provider);
- to a recipient in a country that is recognized by the applicable data protection law to have an adequate level of data protection;
- to a recipient in a country that is not recognized by the applicable data protection law to have an adequate level of data protection, provided that the conditions required under the applicable data protection law for a lawful disclosure or transfer of Personal Data have been met (e.g., the conclusion of standard contractual clauses); or
- in the case that it has been agreed upon with Customer, either in the Main Contract or otherwise;
- to implement and maintain adequate technical and organizational measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the Personal Data Processed and to protect the Personal Data against unauthorized processing, unauthorized access or unauthorized disclosure, as well as against accidental or unlawful falsification, destruction or loss, in particular and at least the data security measures mentioned in Exhibit B, Article 32 GDPR and the CH-DPA; the Provider may adapt these measures as necessary, provided that the overall level of security is substantially maintained; in such cases, the Provider shall adapt Exhibit B and notify Customer accordingly in an appropriate manner;
- to entrust the processing of Personal Data only to employees and other auxiliary persons (including all third parties working on the instructions of the Provider and falling under Article 29 GDPR) who are contractually or legally bound to confidentiality;
- to delegate the processing of Personal Data to a sub-Processor only with the prior written consent of Customer, which shall be deemed to have been given for the sub-Processors provided in Exhibit C, and only to a sub-Processor that has undertaken to substantially comply with the applicable provisions pursuant to the CH-DPA and, where applicable, pursuant to the GDPR. If the Provider wishes to expand or adjust Exhibit C to include further sub-Processors, it shall notify Customer thereof in text form in a suitable manner at least thirty (30) days in advance (e.g., by means of an e-mail or a notification function in the event of adjustments to the list, insofar as it is made available on the Internet). Customer may object in writing to an extension or adjustment of the list within fourteen (14) days; it shall do so only for justified reasons relating to data protection law; if the Parties do not reach an agreement within fourteen (14) days, Customer may extraordinarily terminate the Services affected by this (and the DPA for such Services), insofar it can show that the objection is required for its compliance under applicable data protection law;
- to notify Customer without undue delay (at the e-mail address designated by Customer and in the absence thereof at the contact address on the signature sheet of the Order) of any personal data breach (as defined in the GDPR), as well as such information pursuant to Article 33 paragraph 3 GDPR and the corresponding provisions of the CH-DPA as is reasonably available to the Provider;
- to assist Customer, upon its request, in complying with the GDPR, the CH-DPA and other applicable data protection laws in the manner requested by Customer, taking into account the nature of the Processing and the information available to the Provider upon request, in particular, in complying with its obligations (i) towards Data Subjects exercising their rights under applicable data protection laws (including Chapter III of the GDPR and the corresponding provisions of the CH-DPA and other applicable data protection laws; such requests shall be immediately forwarded to Customer and not responded in substance) and (ii) pursuant to Articles 32 to 36 of the GDPR and the corresponding provisions of the CH-DPA and other applicable data protection laws;
- to inform Customer immediately if, in its opinion, an instruction from Customer violates applicable data protection laws or other applicable laws; to the extent reasonable, it will continue the Processing in the absence of other instructions;
- to provide Customer with all information necessary to demonstrate Provider’s compliance with this Section C; Customer agrees that it shall exercise this right of audit, as far as possible, only by relying on the audit of any certifications and audit reports provided by the Provider of independent audit companies. With respect to sub-Processors, Provider shall provide Customer with reasonable means to audit compliance with applicable data protection regulations, which may be limited to the provision of third-party audit reports, subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions of such sub-Processors; and
- to return all or certain Personal Data to Customer, at Customer’s choice, subject to any applicable legal retention obligations, or to delete such Personal Data without retaining a copy upon termination of the Main Contract or upon request of Customer, and to confirm such deletion to Customer.
2. Expenses and Indemnification
- Unless otherwise agreed in the individual case, Customer shall reimburse Provider for its efforts and expenses incurred by it in providing Customer with support services pursuant to Section C or otherwise assists Customer in complying with the CH-DPA, if applicable, the GDPR and other applicable data protection laws, in each case to the extent that Customer cannot show that these expenses are the fault of the Provider or that they are not to be borne by Customer pursuant to an express provision in the Main Contract.
- Customer shall indemnify and hold the Provider harmless against any claims by third parties based on a breach of this DPA (including applicable data protection regulations). Such indemnification shall apply in particular with regard to any and all damages, costs, administrative sanctions, claims or expenses incurred by Provider as a result of such violations.
