Privacy notice
In short: this website sets no cookies, uses no analytics or advertising tools and loads no content from third parties. We only receive personal data when you send the Kompass form or write to us.

This notice follows the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It covers wellbourne.ch outside /foreman/. The Foreman pages have their own privacy notice.
2. Visiting this website
The website is delivered by Cloudflare, Inc. (USA). When you open a page, Cloudflare processes technically necessary data such as your IP address, the time, the page requested, the referrer and browser details, in order to deliver the pages and fend off attacks. Cloudflare is certified under the Swiss-U.S. and EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
We use no cookies, no tracking and no analytics tools. Typefaces, images and video clips are served from our own server; no data is sent to Google or other third parties when you visit.
Links to simlearn.ai lead to a separate website. Its own information applies there.
3. The Kompass request form
When you send the form to request access to Kompass, we receive your name, your role (if given), your school, your email address, your phone number (if given), the number of students, the grade range, when you would like to start and your message. We also record the time of the request, the language of the page and the country the request came from, as reported by Cloudflare.
We use these details only to answer your request, prepare a quote and, where applicable, conclude and perform a contract with your school.
The form is sent through Cloudflare to a script in our Google account, which delivers it as an email to our Gmail mailbox (Google Ireland Ltd. and Google LLC, USA). Google is certified under the Data Privacy Framework.
4. Contact by email
When you write to us, we process your name, email address, organisation and the content of your message in order to answer you.
Our mailbox is a Gmail account from Google. Messages in it may be read and replies drafted by an AI agent that runs on language models from Anthropic (Anthropic Ireland Ltd. and Anthropic, PBC, USA). In that case the content of your message is transmitted to Anthropic and processed there, including in the USA. No automated individual decisions with legal effect are made about you. Quotes and contracts are approved by a person.
5. Transfers abroad
The providers named may process data in the USA and other countries. Where a country does not offer adequate data protection, we rely on certification under the Data Privacy Framework, on contractual safeguards of the providers such as the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses, or on the statutory exceptions, in particular where the transfer is necessary to handle your request or a contract with you.
6. Retention
We keep personal data for as long as the purpose requires. Business correspondence and accounting records are kept for up to ten years, as the law requires.
7. Legal bases under the GDPR
Where the GDPR applies, we base processing on the preparation and performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)), on our legitimate interest in a secure website and in answering enquiries (Art. 6(1)(f)), and on statutory retention obligations (Art. 6(1)(c)).
8. Your rights
You can request information about your data, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, object to its processing and ask for it in a common format. To do so, write to [email protected]. You can also lodge a complaint with the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or, if you live in the EU, with your supervisory authority.
9. Changes
We update this notice when our way of working or the law changes. Last updated: September 2026.
