SonTek-IQ Series

For more information, please visit sontex(fr,es,it).

Ideal for monitoring flows in canals, culverts, pipes, and natural streams, the SonTek-IQ starts with a custom flow algorithm derived from hundreds of field measurements. Four velocity beams profile water velocity along both the length and width of the channel, to ensure the best possible coverage and most accurate representation of the velocity field. The built-in pressure sensor and vertical acoustic beam work in tandem to measure water level. Simply input the channel geometry using the intuitive SonTek-IQ software and you are outputting flow data in minutes.

All stainless steel hardware makes the IQ even more capable in difficult environments such as stormwater and certain wastewater where corrosion is a potential concern.

The data subject is the person whose personal data is processed. This includes any processing of personal data, regardless of the means and procedures used, in particular the retention, disclosure, obtaining, deletion, storage, modification, destruction and use of data. The purpose of this data protection declaration is to inform the user of the website, hereinafter &#;user&#;, about the processing of his/her personal data on this website, in particular about the purposes of the processing, the legal bases, the scope of the processing, the recipients, the retention periods and his/her rights. By using this website, the user agrees to the collection, processing and use of data as described below.

  2. Responsible organization / contact details

    The company mentioned with its contact details in the website&#;s legal notice is legally responsible under the Data Protection Act for the processing of personal data on this website. The user may contact the data protection officer in writing at the following address: info@sontex.ch.

     

  3. Purpose of processing

    This website is used to provide the user with information about the manager and its activities and, insofar as it is equipped with a portal function, to exchange information with the manager. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the website&#;s functionalities are not specifically intended to collect the user&#;s personal data (hereinafter referred to as &#;user data&#;) and to evaluate them for other purposes or to pass them on to third parties. In this context, the purpose of processing user data is to provide smooth access to the information and services concerned and to offer an attractive user experience.

    Die Bearbeitung von Nutzerdaten via Webseite hat vor diesem Hintergrund zum Zweck, ihm einen technisch möglichst reibungslosen Zugang zu den entsprechenden Informationen und Dienstleistungen zu gewähren und ein ansprechendes Nutzererlebnis zu bieten.

     

  4. Legal basis

    The processing of user data in connection with this website is subject to the Swiss Data Protection Act (DPA). In the case of third-party services that process user data outside Switzerland, depending on the circumstances, foreign data protection laws may apply, in particular the EU GDPR in the EU/EEA. This is mentioned accordingly in the descriptions of third-party services contained in this data protection declaration.

     

  5. Data processing principles

    User data is processed by the responsible party in accordance with, among other things, the following legal principles:

    • Processing will be carried out in good faith and in a proportionate manner;
    • Data will only be processed for purposes that can be identified by the user, and only insofar as this is compatible with those purposes;
    • Data will be destroyed or anonymized as soon as processing is no longer necessary, and for as long as there are no exceptional grounds provided by law for keeping it;
    • Data that is manifestly incomplete or incorrect will be corrected or deleted;
    • The user&#;s consent to data processing is valid only if it is given voluntarily after appropriate information has been provided;
    • The principles of &#;Privacy by Design&#; and &#;Privacy by Default&#; are respected.

     

  6. Scope of data processing

    As a rule, the user may consult all the pages of this website without providing any personal information, with the exception of those areas of the site and services that require the user&#;s name, address or other data for specific purposes, such as, for example, digital service portals that can only be consulted for specific purposes, accessible via the login. See below, user account.

    The manager reserves the right to keep limited records of website usage for statistical purposes (for example, to determine which days have the highest number of visits or which pages are most frequently visited). Access data is stored in a report file which may be used to identify the user. More specifically, the following data is recorded:

    • User IP address (however, this is automatically anonymized before being saved)
    • Date and time of access
    • Name of file accessed
    • Access status (completed, partially completed, not completed, etc.)
    • Page from which access was made
    • Web browser used
    • Operating system used

    This data is stored in reports on the manager&#;s computer system. This data is not stored with other personal data of the user. The collection of this data by the system is necessary to enable the transmission of information from the website to the user&#;s device. In addition, this data is used by the responsible party to optimize the website, guarantee system security and prevent misuse (e.g. via automated mass requests, spam, etc.).

    The anonymization of IP addresses makes it impossible to draw conclusions about specific users. The user&#;s specific IP address is therefore not merged with other data and a personal assessment is therefore not possible or does not take place.

    Access to user data is only possible for a few persons responsible for the technical support of the protected server and specially authorized by the person responsible and contractually bound to confidentiality.

    Contact form

    If the user sends requests to the manager via the contact form, the contact details provided in the request form will be stored for the purpose of processing the request and in case of further questions. This data will not be passed on without the user&#;s consent.

    Newsletter data

    If the user wishes to receive the company&#;s newsletter, his/her data will be used solely to send the requested information and will not be passed on to third parties. The user may at any time revoke his/her consent to the storage of data, address and their use for sending the newsletter, for example via the &#;unsubscribe link&#; in the newsletter.

    Other contractual services

    The data controller processes user data as well as the data of other contractual partners and interested parties to provide them with contractual information or pre-contractual services. The nature, scope, purpose and necessity of the data processed here are determined by the underlying contractual relationship.

    The data processed includes the basic data of contractual partners (e.g. names and addresses), contact data (e.g. addresses and numbers) and contractual data (e.g. services used, contractual content, contractual communication, names of contact persons).

    In principle, the data controller does not process particularly sensitive user data, unless this is part of a commissioned or contractual processing operation.

    The responsible party will only process data that is necessary for the justification and execution of contractual services and will emphasize the need for information if this is not obvious to the contractual partner. Disclosure to external persons or companies will only take place if contractually required. When processing data communicated to the responsible party in connection with an order, the latter acts in accordance with the customer&#;s instructions and legal requirements.

    Administration, accounting, office organization, contact management

    The responsible party processes user data as part of its administrative tasks and the organization of its operations, financial accounting and compliance with legal obligations, such as archiving. In so doing, it processes the same data as it processes while providing its contractual services. Users as well as other customers, interested parties, business partners and visitors to the website are subject to this processing. The purpose and interest of data processing lies in the maintenance of business activities, the performance of tasks and the provision of services by the person responsible.

    In addition, the person responsible stores information on suppliers, organizers and other business partners based on its business interests, for example with a view to subsequent contact. He permanently stores this data, mainly company-related, for business interests.

     

  7. Service portal / user account

    Depending on the module included, users of this website can log in to a user account in which they can manage the services obtained via the website. As part of the registration process, users are provided with the required mandatory information. Personal data recorded in the context of the service portal and the associated user account are used only by the person responsible for access to the site&#;s areas and services and stored for purposes recognizable from the content of the corresponding site area or service.

    User accounts are not public and cannot be indexed by search engines. By providing personal profile data (e.g. address/username and password), the user has access to his/her own saved and stored data and can independently add to, change or delete them at any time. If the user has terminated his/her user account, his/her data will be deleted regarding the user account, provided that storage is necessary for reasons of legal retention obligations or the overriding interests of the person responsible. Users are responsible for safeguarding their data in the user account in the event of termination of the user account. In the event of termination of the user account, the responsible party has the right to permanently delete all user data stored during the term of the contract.

    Within the framework of registration and renewed registrations, as well as the use of the responsible party&#;s online services, the responsible party saves the IP address and the time of the respective user action. The corresponding user data is stored based on the legitimate interests of the responsible party and the user in order to protect against misuse and other unauthorized use. This data will not be passed on to third parties, unless this is necessary to pursue legal action by the person responsible regarding abusive or illegal user behavior or if there is a legal obligation to do so.

     

  8. Storage / Archiving

    There is no general obligation on the part of the responsible party to store user data. It is primarily the responsibility of the user to keep his or her data available and, if necessary, to archive it. The manager&#;s interests require longer storage.

    The responsible party retains in its accounting systems user data collected in connection with online store orders after an order has been processed, invoiced and paid for, for as long as it is required to do so by tax, commercial or other regulations. As a general rule, this data is kept for 10 years after the process due to legal regulations, or 10 years after the last process in the case of repeated processes by the same user.

     

  9. Confidentiality / Disclosure to third parties

    Unless expressly stated otherwise in these data protection regulations, for example around data processing by subcontractors or around third-party services, or unless intended to be passed on in a recognizable manner for a specific purpose, user data will be treated confidentially, and no user data will be passed on to third parties or to third parties for their own purposes. This does not apply to disclosures to third parties that are required by law, for example because of official or judicial orders.

     

  10. Registration abroad

    Website data, including user data, is stored and processed on secure servers in Switzerland or in EU/EEA countries. Unless expressly stated otherwise in this data protection declaration, particularly around third-party services, there is no transfer of user data to countries outside the EU/EEA. Data processing by agents

    The responsible party has the right to have the user&#;s personal data processed by contractually bound external service providers or agents. However, they must be legally or contractually bound to comply with data protection and confidentiality law in the same way as the responsible person. You may not process user data to a greater extent than the person responsible is authorized to do so. The person in charge is also obliged to regularly ensure that any subcontractors appointed are able to guarantee data security. Personal data will be presented to the user on request and unless there is an overriding interest to the contrary.

     

  11. Data security (TOM)

    To guarantee data security, the responsible party and its representatives use state-of-the-art technical and organizational measures (TOM). On request and if this does not endanger the data security of other users, the manager will provide the user with more detailed information on the TOM carried out. This website uses confidential content for security reasons and to protect transmission, such as inquiries made by users. You can recognize an encrypted connection (SSL/TLS) by the fact that the browser address line changes from &#;http://&#; to &#;https://&#; and by the padlock symbol on your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

    However, no guarantee can be given that information or personal data transmitted by users using unencrypted online forms, e-mails or FTP uploads cannot be viewed or modified by unauthorized persons. Such transmission is made at the user&#;s own risk and without any guarantee on the part of the person responsible.
