Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026.
This Privacy Policy explains how The Hidden Table collects, uses and protects personal information when you visit this website, contact us, make an enquiry or subscribe to communication
Who We Are
The Hidden Table is an independent curatorial practice based in Basel, Switzerland.
For privacy-related questions, you can contact us at:
Collecting Personal Information
Depending on how you interact with The Hidden Table, we may collect:
• your name and email address
• information you provide through contact or enquiry forms
• information relating to an artist, artwork, project, private viewing or collaboration you enquire about
• information provided when subscribing to newsletters or other communications
• email engagement information, including whether a communication has been opened and which links have been clicked
• technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, approximate location and website usage data
• information collected through cookies and similar technologies
Where relevant, we may also process professional contact information obtained through legitimate business or professional sources.
Email Communications and Tracking
The Hidden Table may send occasional communications relating to artists, works, exhibitions, projects and events.
Our email marketing system may record whether an email has been opened and which links have been clicked. We use this information to understand engagement with our communications and to improve future content.
Where required, marketing communications are sent on the basis of consent or another applicable legal basis.
Every marketing communication includes a way to unsubscribe or change email preferences. You may also contact us directly at any time if you no longer wish to receive communication
Website Hosting and Wix
This website is hosted and managed through Wix.com Ltd.
Wix provides services including website hosting, forms, contact management, analytics and email marketing. In providing these services, Wix may process personal information on behalf of The Hidden Table.
Information may be processed by Wix.com Ltd. in Israel and may also be stored or processed by Wix group companies and authorised service providers in other countries, including the United States, Ireland, Germany, Luxembourg, Lithuania, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Mexico, India and Ukraine.
The countries and service providers used by Wix may change over time. Wix maintains an up-to-date list of its authorised sub-processors.
International Data Transfers
Some personal information may therefore be processed outside Switzerland.
Where personal information is transferred to a country that does not provide an adequate level of data protection, appropriate safeguards are used where required.
Wix states that international transfers requiring additional safeguards are protected through recognised mechanisms including Standard Contractual Clauses, together with additional contractual, technical and organisational measures.
Cookies and Analytics
This website may use cookies and similar technologies for essential functionality, security, analytics and performance measurement.
These technologies may help us understand:
• which pages are visited
• how visitors navigate through the website
• traffic sources
• approximate geographical location
• browser and device information
• general engagement with the website
Where consent is required for non-essential cookies, these technologies are activated in accordance with the choices made through the website's cookie settings.
You can manage your cookie preferences through the website cookie settings or through your browser.
Sharing Personal Information
We may share personal information with service providers where reasonably necessary to operate the website, manage communications, provide analytics or respond to enquiries.
If an enquiry relates directly to a particular artist, designer or collaborating party, relevant information may be shared with that person where necessary to respond to the enquiry, confirm availability or facilitate a potential acquisition or collaboration.
We may also disclose information where required by applicable law or a lawful request from a public authority.
Third-Party Websites and Social Media
The website may contain links to artist websites, Instagram, Pinterest and other external websites or services.
When you follow an external link, the relevant third party may process personal information independently under its own privacy policy.
The Hidden Table is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites.
Retention
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
The retention period may depend on whether the information relates to an enquiry, professional relationship, acquisition, project, email communication or legal and administrative obligation.
When information is no longer required, it is deleted or anonymised where reasonably possible and subject to applicable retention requirements.
Your Rights
Depending on the applicable data-protection law, you may have the right to:
• request information about how your personal data is being processed
• request access to personal information held about you
• request correction of inaccurate information
• request deletion where appropriate
• object to or restrict certain processing
• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• unsubscribe from marketing communications
• request information about recipients and international transfers of your data
To exercise these rights or ask a question about your personal information, please contact:
Data Security
The Hidden Table takes reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, loss or disclosure.
No website, email system or internet-based transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Applicable Data Protection Law
The Hidden Table processes personal information in accordance with applicable data-protection requirements, including the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP).
Where activities fall within the territorial scope of other data-protection laws, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), those requirements may also apply.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our website, communications, service providers or applicable legal requirements.
The current version will always be published on this page.
