Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 November 2026

1. Who is responsible

Pemedia AG, Thurgauerstrasse 105, 8152 Glattpark, Switzerland (UID CHE-108.648.530) is responsible for the processing described here. Contact us at info@bestdividendstocks.org for privacy questions or requests.

2. Visiting the website and downloading the report

Our hosting provider, Netlify, Inc., processes technical request data to deliver and secure the website and its PDF files. This can include IP addresses, requested URLs, timestamps, browser and device information, referrer information and response/error information. These data support delivery, troubleshooting and protection against misuse.

The report is served as a PDF from our website. Its download link is not a password-protected personal account and can be shared. Accessing the PDF generates a request to our hosting provider.

3. Requesting the free report

We collect your email address to verify that you control the address and to send the requested report. The embedded form is provided through Brevo. Loading and using the form also requires technical requests to Brevo, which can receive your IP address, browser information and submission details.

We send an email asking you to confirm your address. After you click the verification link, we send an email with the report link. Brevo stores contact and verification records and processes email delivery information, including delivery failures. Email interactions, such as link clicks and opens inferred from tracking images, can be recorded when email tracking is enabled. Open information may be affected by email privacy settings and automated scanning.

Requesting the report does not subscribe you to a newsletter. We do not treat the report-verification click as permission for later marketing emails. A future newsletter or marketing series would require a separate sign-up and appropriate permission.

4. Advertising measurement and your choice

We use the Google Ads tag AW-1055457136 to measure advertising performance. The Google script is blocked until you choose “Accept measurement”. If you reject optional cookies, our implementation does not load the Google Ads script. The free report remains available either way.

After acceptance, Google can receive technical information such as your IP address, browser/device information, page address, referrer and advertising identifiers, including an ad-click identifier when present. Google advertising cookies may be used to associate visits with advertising interactions. Our implementation does not enable personalised advertising and does not send form email addresses to the Google tag as enhanced-conversion data. No Google Analytics 4 tag is currently installed.

Your choice and its timestamp are stored in your browser under bds-ad-measurement-v1 for up to 180 days. This preference record allows us to remember acceptance or rejection. It is not a newsletter permission record. Google cookies have their own lifetimes and can also be removed through your browser.

You can reopen the controls through Cookie Settings and withdraw permission for future optional measurement. Withdrawal does not undo data already processed. See how Google uses information from partner sites and Google's cookie information.

5. Contacting us

If you email us, we process the address, message and any information you choose to provide to respond to your request. Our contact mailbox is provided through Microsoft 365 via GoDaddy.

6. Purposes and legal grounds

We process information to fulfil your requested report delivery, operate and secure the website, answer enquiries and document the handling of requests. Where applicable law requires a specified legal basis, these activities rely on fulfilling the requested service or our legitimate interests in secure operation, communications and accountability, as appropriate. Optional Google Ads measurement is based on your consent. We comply with applicable legal retention and disclosure obligations.

7. Service providers and processing abroad

Relevant service providers include Netlify for hosting, Brevo for forms and report emails, Microsoft/GoDaddy for our contact mailbox, and Google for optional advertising measurement. They and their subprocessors may process data outside Switzerland, including in the European Union and the United States. Google processing may involve Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC depending on the service and region.

Brevo states that its contact databases are hosted in the European Union; this does not mean every operation by every provider or subprocessor takes place only in the EU. When transfers require protection under applicable law, the relevant adequacy decisions or recognised contractual safeguards must apply to those transfers. The actual protections depend on the provider and destination.

Provider information: Netlify, Brevo, Microsoft, GoDaddy, and Google.

8. Retention

We retain report-request, verification and delivery information only for as long as needed to deliver the report, resolve delivery issues, handle requests and retain proportionate evidence where necessary. We do not use those records as indefinite marketing permission. Enquiries are retained as needed to deal with the matter and applicable legal obligations or claims. Service providers apply their own operational log and backup retention schedules. Information is deleted or anonymised when it is no longer needed, subject to legal duties and necessary suppression records.

The browser consent preference expires after 180 days. You can also delete browser storage and cookies yourself. Contact us to ask about retention or request deletion of your contact data.

9. Your rights

Depending on the law applicable to you, you may have rights to access information, correct it, request deletion, restrict or object to processing, obtain a portable copy and withdraw consent. Some rights are subject to legal conditions. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Contact info@bestdividendstocks.org. You may also contact the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner or the competent privacy authority in your country where applicable.

10. Changes

We update this notice when our processing changes. New marketing uses or measurement services will need to be assessed and disclosed before use.
