We attach particular importance to privacy, confidentiality and the responsible handling of personal information. Due to the nature of matchmaking services, our clients may entrust us with personal, biographical and other confidential information.

We seek to collect only information that is relevant and proportionate to the services being provided.
4. Sensitive Personal Data
Due to the highly personalised nature of matchmaking, a client may voluntarily disclose information that may qualify as sensitive personal data or, under the GDPR, special-category personal data.
Depending on the circumstances, this may include information concerning health, religious or philosophical beliefs, or aspects of a person's private or intimate life.
Clients are not required to provide sensitive information unless it is genuinely relevant to the service.
Where applicable law requires explicit consent or another specific legal basis for processing such information, DYNASTY will process such information only where the applicable requirement has been satisfied.
5. How We Collect Personal Data
• directly from you;
• through our website;
• through questionnaires or profile forms;
• during consultations, interviews and meetings;
• by telephone, email or messaging applications;
• through photographs, documents or other information you voluntarily provide;
• through a person authorised by you;
• from publicly available sources where permitted by law;
• from third parties where you have authorised the disclosure or another lawful basis exists.
Where required by applicable law, we will provide the relevant privacy information when personal data is obtained from a source other than the individual concerned.
6. Purposes of Processing
The primary purpose for which DYNASTY processes personal data is to provide private matchmaking, personal introduction and related advisory services.
• understand your circumstances, preferences and relationship expectations;
• create and maintain your confidential matchmaking profile;
• assess potential compatibility;
• search for and identify potentially suitable partners;
• select appropriate potential introductions;
• prepare personalised recommendations;
• present selected potential profiles to you;
• present appropriate elements of your profile to selected potential partners;
• facilitate introductions and meetings;
• communicate with you before and after introductions;
• provide personalised matchmaking advice and support;
• administer your membership or contractual relationship with DYNASTY;
• process payments and maintain accounting records;
• respond to enquiries;
• verify information where appropriate and lawful;
• protect our clients and prevent misuse of our services;
• establish, exercise or defend legal claims;
• comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not intend to use personal information obtained for matchmaking for unrelated purposes without an appropriate legal basis.
7. Legal Bases for Processing
• performance of a contract with you;
• taking steps at your request before entering into a contract;
• your consent;
• explicit consent where required for particular categories of sensitive information;
• our legitimate interests in providing, managing and protecting our matchmaking services, provided that such interests are not overridden by applicable rights and freedoms;
• compliance with a legal obligation;
• establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
• another lawful basis available under applicable legislation.
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
8. Sharing Your Profile with Potential Matches
A fundamental part of the DYNASTY matchmaking service involves carefully selected introductions between individuals who may be compatible.
Client profiles are private and are not made publicly available.
Depending on the client's instructions, the stage of the matchmaking process and applicable legal requirements, DYNASTY may provide a selected potential match with limited information from a client's profile.
• first name or another agreed form of identification;
• age or age range;
• country or city of residence;
• photographs authorised for presentation;
• education and professional background;
• interests and lifestyle;
• relevant family information;
• relationship goals;
• relevant personal characteristics;
• partner preferences;
• other information reasonably necessary to evaluate a potential introduction.
DYNASTY seeks to disclose only information reasonably necessary for the proposed introduction.
Where consent is required, photographs, personal profiles or other relevant information will be shared within the scope of the consent provided.
More identifying or sensitive information may be withheld until an appropriate stage of the introduction process.
9. Purpose of Information Shared with a Potential Match
Any personal profile, photograph or information provided by DYNASTY to a potential match is provided solely for the purpose of evaluating a possible personal introduction and, where there is mutual interest, facilitating a genuine personal relationship.
The information must be treated as private and confidential.
• publish the information or photographs;
• upload them to social media or other public platforms;
• forward or distribute them to unrelated third parties;
• place them in a public or commercial database;
• use them for advertising or marketing;
• use them for any commercial purpose unrelated to the introduction;
• use the information to identify, investigate or contact the person for purposes unrelated to the proposed introduction;
• retain or use the information for an unrelated purpose after the introduction is no longer being considered.
Recipients are expected to respect the privacy and confidentiality of every person introduced through DYNASTY and to cease using or delete profile information when it is no longer reasonably required for the purpose for which it was disclosed, subject to applicable legal requirements.
10. Disclosure to Other Third Parties
In addition to potential matches, we may disclose personal data to trusted third parties where reasonably necessary for operating our business.
• IT and hosting providers;
• cloud storage providers;
• email and communications providers;
• CRM or business administration providers;
• payment providers;
• accountants, lawyers and other professional advisers;
• contractors assisting us in providing our services.
Such providers are expected to process personal data only for authorised purposes and subject to appropriate contractual, confidentiality and data protection requirements where required.
We may also disclose information where required by applicable law, a court or a competent regulatory or public authority.
DYNASTY does not sell client profiles or personal data to third parties.
11. International Data Transfers
DYNASTY provides international matchmaking services and its Data Controller is established in the Russian Federation.
Personal data may therefore, depending on the circumstances, be processed in or transferred to countries outside Switzerland and/or the European Economic Area, including the Russian Federation and countries in which potential matches or authorised service providers are located.
The fact that a potential match lives in another country may also result in selected profile information being disclosed internationally as part of the matchmaking service.
Where applicable data protection law requires additional safeguards for an international transfer, DYNASTY will use an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism or rely on an applicable statutory exception where its requirements are satisfied.
• an applicable adequacy decision;
• recognised standard contractual clauses;
• other appropriate contractual safeguards;
• explicit consent where legally permissible;
• a transfer necessary for the performance of a contract or implementation of pre-contractual measures where the relevant legal conditions are satisfied;
• another transfer mechanism or exception permitted by applicable law.
Where required by applicable law, additional information concerning the destination country and applicable safeguards may be obtained by contacting DYNASTY at info@dynastyclub.ru.
12. Photographs
Photographs supplied to DYNASTY are processed for purposes connected with the matchmaking service.
• prepare a client's matchmaking profile;
• assess potential compatibility;
• present the client to selected potential matches where authorised;
• facilitate an introduction.
We do not intentionally use client photographs in public advertising, on public social media accounts or for unrelated promotional purposes without appropriate authorisation.
Clients may contact us at any time to withdraw permission for future presentation of particular photographs, subject to applicable legal or contractual requirements.
13. Confidentiality and Security
DYNASTY recognises that matchmaking information can be particularly private and confidential.
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against:
• unauthorised access;
• accidental loss;
• unlawful disclosure;
• alteration;
• misuse;
• destruction.
Access to client information is limited, where reasonably practicable, to persons who require such information for legitimate business purposes.
While no electronic storage or communication system can guarantee absolute security, DYNASTY takes reasonable measures appropriate to the nature and sensitivity of the information processed.
14. Data Minimisation and Accuracy
We seek to process only personal data that is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
Clients are encouraged to provide accurate and up-to-date information and to notify DYNASTY when important information changes.
We may periodically ask clients to update their profiles to maintain the accuracy and relevance of our matchmaking services.
Information that is no longer required should not be retained indefinitely merely because it was previously provided.
15. Retention of Personal Data
Personal data is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and for applicable legal, contractual, accounting or legitimate business requirements.
• whether you are a current or former client;
• the nature and sensitivity of the information;
• the services provided;
• contractual requirements;
• applicable statutory retention obligations;
• the need to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
When personal data is no longer required, it will be deleted, anonymised or securely archived as appropriate, subject to applicable legal obligations.
16. Your Rights
• obtain information about the processing of your personal data;
• request access to your personal data;
• request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
• request deletion of personal data;
• request restriction of certain processing;
• object to certain processing;
• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
• request data portability where applicable;
• obtain information concerning recipients or categories of recipients;
• obtain information concerning certain international transfers;
• lodge a complaint with a competent data protection authority.
These rights may be subject to legal conditions, limitations and exceptions.
To exercise your rights, please contact: info@dynastyclub.ru
We may request reasonable information necessary to verify your identity before responding.
17. Withdrawal of Consent and Matchmaking Profile
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
In particular, you may ask DYNASTY to stop presenting your profile and/or photographs to new potential matches.
Following such a request, we will cease future sharing to the extent required by applicable law and consistent with your request.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing that was lawful before the withdrawal and does not necessarily require deletion of information that DYNASTY is legally entitled or required to retain.
18. Website, Technical Data and Cookies
When you use dynastyclub.ch, certain technical data may be processed automatically, including:
• IP address;
• browser and device information;
• date and time of access;
• pages visited;
• technical logs.
The website may use cookies and similar technologies necessary for its operation, security and functionality.
Where non-essential analytics, advertising or similar technologies are used and applicable law requires consent, such technologies will be operated in accordance with the relevant consent requirements.
Information about specific cookies and third-party technologies may be provided separately through the website's cookie notice or cookie settings.
19. Third-Party Websites and Platforms
Our website or communications may contain links to third-party websites, social networks, messaging services or other platforms.
Such third parties operate under their own privacy policies and data protection practices.
DYNASTY is not responsible for independent processing activities carried out by third-party platforms outside our control.
We encourage users to review the relevant privacy information before providing personal data through third-party services.
20. Marketing Communications
Where permitted by applicable law, DYNASTY may send existing or prospective clients information concerning its services, events or other relevant opportunities.
Where consent is legally required, marketing communications will be sent on the basis of such consent.
You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting us or using an unsubscribe mechanism where one is provided.
Withdrawal from marketing communications does not affect service-related communications necessary for an existing contractual or matchmaking relationship.
21. Automated Decision-Making
DYNASTY provides a personalised matchmaking service.
Technology and structured criteria may be used to assist our team in organising information or identifying potentially compatible profiles.
However, DYNASTY does not intend to make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects concerning clients solely through automated processing unless the individual is appropriately informed and applicable legal requirements are satisfied.
Matchmaking recommendations may involve individual assessment and professional judgement.
22. Persons Under 18
DYNASTY matchmaking services are intended exclusively for adults.
We do not knowingly provide matchmaking services to persons under 18 years of age or intentionally collect personal information from minors for matchmaking purposes.
23. Data Protection Authorities and Complaints
If you have concerns about the way DYNASTY processes your personal data, we encourage you to contact us first so that we have an opportunity to address your concerns.
Depending on the applicable law and your circumstances, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection authority.
For matters falling within Swiss data protection law, the competent federal authority is the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
Where the GDPR applies, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in the relevant EU/EEA jurisdiction.
24. Changes to This Policy
DYNASTY may update this Privacy & Data Protection Policy when necessary to reflect changes in its services, processing activities, technology or applicable legislation.
The latest version will be published on dynastyclub.ch together with its effective date.
