The security of your personal data is very important to Bally. To guarantee a secure purchasing experience and to protect your data transmitted via the Internet, Bally uses SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology. All payment processes on the website are processed via Adyen, a secure online payment gateway, which encrypts your payment information in a secure host environment, and the second EU Payment Services Directive (PSD2), managed by the European Commission, a secondary form of identity authentication. Due to the requirements of the PSD2, it may be necessary to go through a verification step during the payment process when paying with a credit or debit card.

With Visa©, MasterCard© and American Express© credit cards, a 3D Secure process may be required. In this additional step, the identity of the cardholder is checked during the payment process and the online transaction is confirmed. Every bank has its own authentication procedure. If you have any questions about 3D SecureCode, please contact your bank directly.

We treat all data that you send to us in strict confidence. Further information can be found in our Privacy Policy, which you can access <u><a href='#privacy-policy'>here</a></u>.

Bally only deducts the amount to be paid when your order is despatched from our warehouse. However, your card issuer / payment provider may secure the amount paid at the time of the order.

The Conditions of Use are subject to Swiss law.

1.1 This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) applies to the website <u><a href='https://www.bally.ch/en/'>www.bally.ch</a></u> (the "website") and regulates the use of personal data both during navigation of the website by users who visit the website while surfing or for information purposes as well as during the interaction with services and offers that are provided on the website (including the online shop) by users who provide their information voluntarily by completing certain forms and/or by sending their information by email to be able to visit the area of the website where such services and offers are stored or to receive newsletters and/or commercial or advertising information. If the user is purchasing as a guest customer we will not process their data for profiling purposes.

1.2 The Privacy Policy names the identity of the controller, who controls and manages the personal data, which is collected and processed via the website. This determines which personal data is to be collected, the goal and type of processing and how the personal data of the user is passed on to third parties, the security measures to protect data and possibilities for the user to examine the processing of their data and to exercise their rights.

1.3 By using the website, a user consents to the collection, use, forwarding, retention, storage, and transfer of their personal data, as described in this Privacy Policy, the General Terms and Conditions of Sale and the General Terms of Use. We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy, and the new conditions come into force as soon as they are published on the website.

1.4 This information text is provided exclusively for the website and does not apply to other internet sites that the user might be able to reach via a link and/or offers by third parties.

2.1 The data controller for the website is Bally Schuhfabriken AG ("Bally", "we", "us"), headquartered at Via Industria 1, 6987 - Caslano (Switzerland).

2.2 As explained in the General Terms and Conditions of Sale, the online shop of the website is managed by Bally Schuhfabriken AG, headquartered at Via Industria 1, 6987 - Caslano (Switzerland). Bally manages sales and transactions that are carried out via the website, such as order processing, the sale and delivery of products, the processing of returns and claims for defects as well as other activities, which are required for the sale of products via the website. For the purposes of managing and implementing activities that are required for the sale of products via the website, Bally processes user data (including the first name and surname, address and credit card information of users).

3.1 The user can visit our website without telling us who they are or revealing their own personal information. If the user decides to provide us with personal information for the use of our services and offers that are provided on the website, they are no longer anonymous to us.

3.2 We collect the following types of personal information (together called “data”) to enable you to use and access our website and/or the relevant electronic commercial services to help us to personalise and improve your experience of the website:

(a) Information, which we automatically collect: The computer systems and processing programs that are required to operate the website record certain data during its normal operation, which is collected automatically and inevitably (if internet protocols are used) and, due to their nature, possibly allow the identification of the user if it is processed and linked to other data in the possession of third parties, including but not limited to device ID or individual identifiers, device type, geolocation information, information on computers and connections, statistics about page visits, traffic to and on the website, referral URL, IP address and standard web log information, anonymous information, which is collected by our use of cookies and web beacons (together "surf data"). Bally collects surf data, which is anonymous, exclusively for statistical purposes related to the visit to the website and for purposes of monitoring the proper functioning of the website and for improving the functionality and content of the website.

(B) data provided voluntarily by the user: personal data, provided voluntarily by the user by email when using website features, when making use of services offered on the website, when filling in certain forms for accessing the reserved areas of the website and for making use of the e-commerce services provided on the website, including name, gender, email address, phone number, physical contact information, (depending on the service used), references, previous transactions with us (e.g. order history, personal data of the customer account) as well as the relevant order data (product, size, number of orders, price) and occasionally also financial information, such as credit card and/or bank account numbers, postage and billing information and other information that the user enters when purchasing products via the website as well as other personal information that we can demand from you to provide our services or to respond to your questions/requirements.

3.3 Minimum age

Bally takes the protection of the personal data of children very seriously. Although the laws and regulations of individual countries define children differently, we regard all persons under the age of 16 as children. Children are not allowed to create their own user account without the consent of their parents or legal guardians. If you are under 16 years of age, please purchase our products with the consent of your legal guardian directly or indirectly via their account. If we realise that we have collected personal data from a child without the prior, demonstrable consent of a parent, the data will be deleted as quickly as possible. If you have concerns about the privacy of your child’s data or believe that your child might possibly have given us personal data, please send an email to privacy@bally.ch 

4.1 The website uses automated systems for data collection, such as cookies. A cookie is a small data package that stores information on the browser of your computer (or other internet-enabled end-devices) or program data subdirectories, when you visit an internet site like the website. It does not contain any readable information but enables theoretically a link to be made between an internet user and their personal data (e.g., the IP address of the user and other information about the experience of the user on the website and their preferences, which have been expressed through the choice and purchase of products offered on the website), which the user has provided on the website. Cookies are distributed by servers and no one can access the information contained in them. This information and data is collected directly and automatically from the website and is processed collectively and anonymously. The data that is collected via cookies is stored separately from other data that is made available to us.

4.2 For further information on the use of cookies, please consult our <u><a href='#privacy-policy'>Cookie Policy</a></u>.

5.1 The transmission of data by the user is required to register on the website and to access certain of the services and offers offered on the website, which are offered on the website and in reserved areas, including the online shop and the relevant electronic retail services. If the user does not provide any data, they might not be able to access and use these services and offers.

5.2 The sending of data for advertising purposes is always voluntary and optional. If the user does not send any data for such purposes, it has no effect at all on their being able to use the services and features offered by the website.

6.1 Data is processed manually or with the help of electronic aids for the following purposes:

(a) managing the operation of website navigation and corresponding access data;

(b) data security and managing the security of the website;

(c) providing electronic commerce services offered through the website;

(d) providing other services requested by the user as described when the data was collected;


(e) preventing, detecting and investigating fraud, security breaches, potentially prohibited or illegal activities, and enforcing our general conditions of sale of products and general terms of use;


(f) market research and statistical studies;

(g) contacting users for other purposes permitted by applicable law.

6.2 In addition, Bally can process data with the voluntary and optional consent of the user to create individual or group profiles (user profiles) and use it for marketing purposes, especially to send to the user by electronic and other channels information and updates on Bally products or initiatives, offers, exclusive clearance sales, advertising campaigns and events, shows and similar events, which are organised by Bally or in which Bally takes part, including invitations to such events, including but not limited to newsletters, emails, text messages (SMS), multimedia messages (MMS) and/or instant messages (e.g. via applications like WhatsApp, WeChat etc.). The user can withdraw their consent to the sending of advertising and promotional material by email at any time by clicking on the link “unregister” in any commercial message sent by Bally and/or other companies in the Bally Group or by email to privacy@bally.ch.

6.3 Under no circumstances do we sell user data to third parties for their advertising purposes without the express consent of the user. We may combine user data with information that we collect from other sources and use it to improve and personalise our advertising and our marketing for users.

7.1 The collected data is stored and processed via an electronic system at Bally and in other parts of the world. We store your personal data for the purposes mentioned in para 6 for a period of 7 years from the registration date. Under certain circumstances it is nevertheless possible that we store personal data for a longer period, for example, if we are obliged to do so due to legal, tax and accounting regulations. At the end of this period your data is permanently erased or permanently anonymised.

7.2 We protect the data of our users by taking technical and organisational security measures to minimise the danger of loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure and alteration. Some of the protection measures that we use are firewalls and data encryption, physical access controls to our data centres as well as authorisation controls when accessing information.

7.3 We take the necessary steps to ensure that the user data we collect is correct and up to date, and we offer users the option of updating their information as described in this Privacy Policy.

7.4 Data is only stored as long as it is required for the given purposes. In some cases, the retention periods are longer due to applicable statutory regulations.

8.1 Within the Bally organisation, both internal and external staff have access to data.

8.2 We are also entitled to share user data with:

(a) all other companies within the Bally Group that are headquartered in countries within and/or outside the EEA, Including Bally Schuhfabriken AG, if this is required to fulfill the given purposes. All security and data protection measures are implemented throughout the entire Group to create an appropriate data protection level regardless of the geographical headquarters of the particular company of the Bally Group, which is the recipient of the aforementioned data. Members of the Bally Group are only entitled to use user data to send advertising information if users have expressly consented to these services and will use user data only in compliance with this Privacy Policy and the applicable law.

(b) experts, independent consultants, credit bureaus, banks and financial institutions, third party companies that Bally may consult in connection with the performance of technical and organisational services and contract service providers that assist us in our business operations (such as, but not limited to, website operation, payment services, shipping, fraud investigation, bill collection, affiliate and reward programmes) to the extent necessary for the provision of their services;


(c) other third parties where users specifically request us to send them their information; this is the case, for example, when you make a direct request to our customer service through our official social media and other digital communication channels, in which case your information will be shared with other third party business entities responsible for such third party platforms (such as WhatsApp, WeChat, etc.) and the terms and conditions and privacy policies of these third parties will apply to their processing of your data. Make sure you have read and understood the applicable General Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Policy of these business units before you use these communication channels.

(d) criminal prosecution or regulatory authorities or authorised third parties in response to a confirmed query with regard to a criminal investigation of presumed illegal action or other action being the website, for which we and/or the user could be legally responsible;

(e) other business entities, should we plan to merge with a business entity or be taken over by such a business entity. Should such a merger take place, we will demand that the new company follow this Privacy Policy with regard to user data.

8.3 The aforementioned recipients of user data will process it as data processors and/or persons responsible for processing the data, for the same purposes as described above and in accordance with applicable data protection law. Bally can demand the list of data processors and the recipients of data at any time.

8.4 If user data is used or disclosed for purposes that are not described in this Privacy Policy, the user is informed in advance. Data is only transferred with the prior consent of the user to companies of the Bally Group that are headquartered outside the EEA. The consent is voluntary and optional.

9.1 Users have the following rights in accordance with the applicable data protection legislation:

(a) withdraw consent at any time where we process your personal data on the basis of consent,


(b) access and/or update the data Bally holds about you,


(c) request that Bally rectify or erase your data,

(d) request that Bally restrict the way it processes your data,


(e) object to the way Bally processes your personal data,


(f) transfer your personal data either to yourself or to another natural or legal person, and


(g) express your point of view when an individual decision which has a significant impact on you is made about you by automated means and request that such an automated decision be reviewed by a human being.

If you would like to exercise one of these rights, please write to us at Bally Schuhfabriken AG, via Industria 1, Caslano, Switzerland or send an email to Privacy@bally.ch. You also have the right to submit a complaint to a Data Protection Authority in your country of residence (you can find the contact details for all EU/EAA Data Protection Authorities here).

In cases where the personal data stored in our systems is insufficient to identify you or to answer your query, we need appropriate proof of your identity or additional relevant personal data resulting from your relationship with us before we can respond to your query.

On request, you can empower another person to exercise your rights within the parameters of this Privacy Policy. This person then functions as your personal representative. If your representative sends us a query to exercise your rights pursuant to this Privacy Policy, we can request that they produce proof that you have given them permission to make the query on their behalf. In this instance, we can also try to check your identity directly and/or request that you confirm the authorisation of the representative to act on your behalf.

10.1 We update our Privacy Policy from time to time by publishing a new Privacy Policy on our website. If we update our Privacy Policy, by changing the date of the “last update” we report when it was last updated. Unless otherwise noted, updates to the Privacy Policy are effective immediately upon posting. If we make an important change to our Privacy Policy, we notify you appropriately, e.g. by publishing a banner or a pop-up notice on our website.

This Privacy Policy was last updated on 15/11/2022.

1.1 Bally guarantees the consumer for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the delivery date that products correspond to specifications and are free from material and manufacturing defects.

1.2 This warranty applies not only to products that a) are manufactured by or for Bally and are identifiable as such by fixed legitimate “Bally” trademarks, company name or logo and b) were bought by consumers on this website.

1.3 If a product shows a manufacturing fault or there exists a supposed deviation of the product from the contractual composition, the consumer must notify customer service through the contact form on the top of this page to claim their warranty rights. This notification must be made within two months of the time a defect of this kind is established. In any event, the time limit for the procedure to claim a defect which has not been fraudulently covered up by Bally shall expire 26 months after delivery of the products.

1.4 The product must be sent back within 15 (fifteen) working days of notifying Bally of the damaged or faulty product.

1.5 Bally checks the returned, damaged or faulty product and in the presence of a breach of contract will replace it or, if this is not possible, refund the purchase price.

1.6 Bally will refund the purchase price and the return costs of the product by the same payment method used to make the purchase. If the recipient of the product on the order form is different from the person paying, the amount paid for the returned products is refunded by the seller to the person who made the payment.

1.7 In the event that Bally fails to establish a defect in the returned products, you will be notified that the product cannot be taken back. You then have the option of deciding whether the products should be sent back to you again. If you do not agree to the delivery, Bally reserves the right to retain the products and the purchase price.

1.8 This warranty does not apply (i) if the product was subjected to wrong or improper use or repairs or alterations and/or modifications were made that are not covered by the product documentation; (ii) damage caused by not following the usage instructions in the product documentation or other definite instructions by Bally; (iii) if the product has been damaged through wrong use, misuse, neglect, accident, normal wear and tear, improper environmental conditions or lack of care; (iv) for damage based on reasons other than faulty design, manufacture and/or materials.

1.9 This warranty applies in addition to your statutory entitlements with regard to faulty products or products that do not correspond to the description.

Bally Schuhfabriken AG and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as “Bally”, “we”, “us”) are responsible for the collection and processing of your personal data in connection with cookies used on this website. This Cookie Policy explains how our website uses cookies (including similar technologies that come under the legislation, such as local shared objects – commonly known as flash cookies –, web beacons or bugs, including transparent clear gifs etc.) to give you clear and relevant information about them, and explain the choice of options you have to control what happens when you access our website.

It is possible that information collected with the help of a cookie or otherwise contains personal data. In such a case, Bally’s Privacy Policy applies to the processing of this data. YOU CAN FIND THE PRIVACY POLICY <u><a href='/fr/customercare/#privacy-policy'>HERE</a></u>.

If cookies are installed based on your consent (as explained further below), this consent can be withdrawn immediately at any time by following the instructions in this document.

Further information on the deployment of cookies on websites can be found at <u><a href='https://www.allaboutcookies.org'>www.allaboutcookies.org</a></u>

Cookies are small text files, which are sent from a visited website to the end-device of the user (as a rule, the browser), where they are stored and finally transferred back to the website if the user calls up the website again at a later time.

We use them mainly to offer you a relevant and/or improved surfing experience and to produce statistics to optimise the functionality of the website. All additional information, such as data that enables the sending of advertising in our interest, are only stored after you have given your prior consent.

<div id=ot-sdk-cookie-policy></div>

Some cookies are strictly necessary for the proper functioning of this website and do not need the consent of the user, e.g. cookies that ensure the content of a page is loaded quickly and effectively by distributing the workload across several computers, or cookies installed for security purposes. Other cookies are still necessary or important but are not strictly required and therefore need the consent of the user. For these cookies (i.e. performance and functionality, advertising/targeting), we request your consent (via the interface “Accept all cookies” in our cookie banner or the cookie settings in your browser), before we install them on your device.

If you decide to reject unnecessary cookies that require your prior consent, we will not use such cookies. If you decide to withdraw your prior consent, we will no longer use and we will delete the cookies concerned (as long as these are first-party cookies). This means, however, that if you do this it is possible you will not be able to use all of the features of our website. You can also reject performance cookies. In this case, we receive less information about what you like or don’t like about our website for us to be able to improve it.

Managing cookie settings via your browser

You can manage cookie settings on our website via the functionalities mentioned above and also by changing your browser settings (activate/deactivate and delete). Most browsers enable you to manage your cookies by either accepting, rejecting or accepting only certain types of cookies. You can usually find the procedure for managing and deleting cookies in the integral help function of your browser.

Different types of cookies

Cookies can either be installed with our website domain (“Bally cookies”) directly by us or by third parties (“third-party cookies”).

Some cookies can be stored on the user’s device until they expire or until they are deleted by the user (“permanent cookies”), others are automatically deleted at the end of a session or when the browser is closed (“session cookies”).

Depending on the purpose of use, cookies can be divided into four main groups:

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be deactivated in your systems. As a rule, these cookies are only installed as a reaction to actions taken by you that correspond to a service requirement, such as establishing your privacy policy settings, registration or completion of forms. You can set your browser to block these cookies or to notify you about these cookies. However, some areas of the website will then not function. These cookies do not store any personal data.

These cookies enable us to count visits and traffic sources so that we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They support us by answering questions about which pages are the most popular, which are used least and how visitors navigate the website. All the information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not permit cookies, we cannot know when you have visited our website.

With these cookies, the website is able to provide extended functionality and personalisation. They can be installed by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages. If you do not permit cookies, it is possible that some or all of these services will not work flawlessly.

These cookies can be installed via our website by our advertising partners. They can be used by these companies to create a profile of your interests and to show you relevant advertisements on other websites. They do not store personal data directly but are based on a unique identification of your browser and internet device. If you do not permit these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Our website uses "Google Analytics” by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”). Google analyses your use of our website on our behalf. For this purpose, certain information about your use of our website (e.g., the referring URL, the web pages you visit, the browser type used, your operating system, your language settings, the resolution of your monitor etc.) are collected by cookies installed by Google and transferred to a Google server in the US, where they are further processed (stored and analysed). Google uses this information on our behalf to provide us with relevant services with regard to website activities and internet use. The relevant results are then made available to us in an anonymised form. We use this data for marketing purposes to improve the content of our web services and the experience linked to them.

To increase the security of your personal data, we use the IP anonymising feature or other features provided by Google to protect your privacy. Your user data is therefore not linked to your full IP address. Further information about how IP anonymisation works can be found at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2763052.

Further information about Google Analytics can be found in the Google Analytics Terms of Service, the Google Analytics Privacy Policy and in the Google Privacy Terms.

As it says on the banner you see on your first visit to our website, your consent to the use of cookies is obtained by you clicking on “ACCEPT all”.

You can deactivate every cookie category (except for strictly necessary cookies) in the “Cookie settings” pop-up window.

Please note that we may record your consent with the help of a technical cookie so that the previously mentioned banner will not be shown again on your next visit. Regardless of this, we will request (by showing a new banner) that you confirm your selection every 12 months. We store your previously given consents exclusively for proof of compliance with the statutory regulations for the term of the applicable statutory limitation period.

You can, at any time and in every case, freely decide whether to block the installation of third-party and profiling cookies or to withdraw previously given consent without affecting your option of visiting the website and using the relevant content.
