The key points to know
The essentials, explained simply.
Data residency
Where your data is stored and processed matters. We build with European hosting and open source models.
Minimization
Process only the data you need: a simple principle that reduces risk.
Transparency and traceability
Know what AI does with your data, with logged and auditable processing.
Subprocessors
Choose providers that don't expose your data to uncontrolled third-party clouds.
We build while respecting your data
We don't practice law, but we build AI in a way that respects the residency and confidentiality of your data.
European hosting
Infrastructure in Europe (Hetzner), no US cloud.
Open source
Open source models on our infrastructure; your data is not used to train any model.
Traceable
Logged and auditable processing.
Frequently asked questions
Do you give legal advice on the LPD?
No. We are AI experts, not a law firm. For the legal interpretation of the LPD/nLPD and the AI Act, consult your legal counsel. We're happy to work alongside them.
Does my data stay in Switzerland?
We host in Europe (Hetzner, EU). Switzerland recognizes the EU as adequate under the nLPD. We say European hosting, not storage exclusively in Switzerland, to remain accurate.
Can I use AI with personal data?
Yes, while respecting minimization, transparency and security. We build your solutions in that spirit; legal validation remains the responsibility of your counsel.
What about the European AI Act?
It governs certain AI uses. On the technical side we build responsibly; for the regulatory classification of your case, see your legal counsel.
