Privacy policy

Last updated: 28 September 2026. This policy follows the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP). For persons located in the European Union, it also follows the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. Controller

The controller of the data processed on the Cutz platform (getcutz.ch) is:

Matteo Cobos and Tyméo Picchio, operators of Cutz (simple partnership not entered in the commercial register)

Chemin du Coteau 27, 1422 Grandson, Switzerland

Email: contact@getcutz.ch

2. Cutz and the salons: two distinct roles

Cutz is the controller for accounts, bookings made on the platform, reviews, the waiting list and audience measurement.

Each salon is the controller for its own client records: the notes, colour formulas and preferences it enters, the clients it imports, the visit reminders it sends and its accounting. For this data, Cutz acts as a processor: it hosts and processes it solely on behalf of the salon. Any request concerning this data should be addressed to the salon in the first instance. If you address it to us, we will forward it to the salon.

3. Data processed

Identity and contact

First name, surname, email address and telephone number.

Bookings

Salon, services, date and time, status, reason for cancellation where applicable, and attendance or absence as indicated by the salon after the appointment.

Reviews

Rating, comment and date. Your first name is published with the review on the salon’s page.

Waiting list

Email, preferred days and time ranges, search period and date of your consent.

Search and location

The address you type is sent to swisstopo to provide suggestions. If you allow it, your location is used to sort salons by distance. It is not stored in your account or in our audience statistics.

A salon’s client records

Notes, colour formula, preferences, date of next visit, consent to visit reminders, and payments received with their amount and payment method.

Hairdressers and salons

Identity, business and legal form, salon address and telephone number, opening hours, services, staff, photos, content of the salon website, accounting, subscription plan and status.

Payments

Cutz does not process any client payment: you pay for your service at the salon. Hairdressers’ subscriptions are paid via Stripe. Cutz receives no card data and only keeps the customer identifier assigned by Stripe.

Technical data

IP address, browser and connection logs, processed by our hosting providers to operate and secure the service. When an error occurs, a technical report is sent to our error monitoring service (Sentry): error message, address of the page concerned, browser and operating system. It contains neither your name nor your email.

4. Purposes and legal bases

The FADP does not require a legal basis for each processing operation. We nevertheless state it, as required by the GDPR.

The authorities

Only upon a request based on the law.

We do not sell or rent your data.

6. Transfers abroad

Your data is hosted in Switzerland, but some service providers process it abroad. The United Kingdom and the countries of the European Union offer a level of protection recognised by Switzerland. For the United States, we rely on the provider’s certification under the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or, failing that, on standard contractual clauses.

7. Retention periods

  • Account: for as long as it exists. You can delete it at any time.
  • Bookings: kept with the account. When a client account is deleted, past appointments are kept without your contact details, as they carry accounting entries.
  • A salon’s accounting records: 10 years, the period required by the Swiss Code of Obligations.
  • Waiting list: until the end of the requested period, your unsubscription or the deletion of your account.
  • Audience measurement: 90 days, then automatic deletion.
  • Technical logs and error reports: according to the periods applied by our hosting providers and by Sentry.

8. Your rights

You can access your data, rectify it, delete it, receive it in a reusable format, object to processing based on legitimate interest and withdraw consent.

If you have a client account, export and deletion are done directly from your personal area, in the My data section. The download is immediate and deletion takes effect at once. For any other request, write to contact@getcutz.ch. We respond within 30 days.

If you disagree, you can lodge a complaint with the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC): www.edoeb.admin.ch. If you are located in the European Union, you can also contact the data protection authority of your country.

9. Cookies, local storage and audience measurement

Without your consent, the website only uses what is necessary: a session cookie to keep you logged in, a “cutz_langue” cookie that remembers your chosen language for one year, and the storage of your privacy choice in the browser’s local storage. No advertising cookies are used.

The address search also keeps the last 5 addresses you selected in the browser’s local storage, to suggest them again. They stay on your device and are not sent to us.

Error reports sent to Sentry (see section 3) set no cookies and are used only to fix the website. With your consent to audience measurement, page speed measurements are also sent to it. No other third-party service tracks your browsing.

With your consent, we measure traffic with our own means, without any third-party service. No data is sent before you give your consent. We record the page viewed without its parameters, the source of the visit (search engine, campaign or name of the referring site), the device type, the display speed and the steps completed in the booking process, never the content of forms.

These records are linked to a random identifier kept in the tab’s memory and erased when it is closed. It cannot be used to recognise you from one visit to the next. Your IP address is not recorded. It is only used to calculate a temporary fingerprint that limits abuse, deleted when it expires.

You can change this choice at any time via “Privacy choices” in the footer.

10. Security

Communications are encrypted (HTTPS). Access to data is restricted by role directly in the database: a salon only sees its own clients and bookings. Authentication is handled by Supabase. Access by Cutz administrators to an account is reserved for support and salon verification.

11. Changes

We may update this policy. In the event of a significant change, you will be notified by email. The date of the update is shown at the top of the page.

12. Contact

For any question about your data: contact@getcutz.ch.
