We process your data in good faith and for the purposes set out in this privacy policy. We ensure that processing is transparent and proportionate.

If, in exceptional cases, we are unable to comply with these principles, data processing may still be lawful because there is a justification. The following can be considered as justification:

  • Your consent;
  • The implementation of a contract or pre-contractual measures;
  • Our legitimate interests, unless your interests outweigh them.

 

6.3 How can you revoke your consent?

If you have given us your consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, we will process your data within the scope of this consent unless we have other justification.

You can revoke your consent at any time and send an email to the address given in the legal notice. Data processing that has already taken place is not affected by this.

 

6.4 In which cases can we pass on your data to third parties?

a. Principle
We may be dependent on using the services of third parties or affiliated companies and commissioning them to process your data (so-called processors). Categories of recipients are:

  • Accounting, fiduciary and auditing companies;
  • Consulting companies (legal advice, taxes, etc.);
  • IT service providers (web hosting, support, cloud services, website design, etc.);
  • Payment service providers;
  • Provider of tracking, conversion and advertising services.

We ensure that these third parties and our affiliates comply with data protection requirements and treat your personal data confidentially.

Under certain circumstances we are also obliged to disclose your personal data to authorities.

 

b. Passing on to partners and cooperation companies

We sometimes work with different companies and partners who place their offers on our website. You can see that this is a third-party offer (marked as “advertising”).

If you take advantage of such an offer, we will transmit your personal data to the relevant partner or cooperation company (e.g. name, function, communication, etc.) whose offer you want to take advantage of. These partners and cooperation companies are independently responsible for the personal data received. After the data has been transmitted, the data protection regulations of the respective partner apply.

 

c. Visit our social media channels
We have embedded links to our social media channels on our website. This is clear to you in each case (typically via corresponding symbols). If you click on the symbols, you will be redirected to our social media channels.

In this case, the social media providers learn that you are accessing their platform from our website. The social media providers can use the data collected in this way for their own purposes. We would like to point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by the operators.

 

d. Transfer abroad

Under certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to companies abroad as part of order processing. These companies are committed to data protection to the same extent as we are. The transfer can take place worldwide.

If the level of data protection does not correspond to that of Switzerland, we carry out a prior risk assessment and contractually ensure that the same protection as in Switzerland is guaranteed (e.g. by means of the EU Commission’s new standard contractual clauses or other legally required measures). If our risk assessment is negative, we will take additional technical measures to protect your data. You can access the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses here.

 

6.5 How long do we keep your data?

We only retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the individual purposes for which the information was collected.

Data that we store when you visit our website will be retained for twelve months. An exception applies to analysis and tracking data, which can be retained for longer periods.

We store contract data for longer because we are obliged to do so by legal regulations. In particular, we must store business communications, concluded contracts and booking documents for up to 10 years. If we no longer need such data from you to carry out the services, the data will be blocked and we will only use it for accounting and tax purposes.

 

6.6 How do we protect your data?

We will keep your information secure and take all reasonable measures to protect your information from loss, access, misuse or alteration.

Our contractual partners and employees who have access to your data are obliged to comply with data protection regulations. In some cases it will be necessary for us to pass on your requests to companies affiliated with us. Even in these cases, your data will be treated confidentially.

  • you have given your consent for the processing of this data; or
  • you have disclosed data in connection with the conclusion or processing of a contract.

We may restrict or refuse to provide information or data release if this conflicts with our legal obligations, legitimate own or public interests or the interests of a third party.

The processing of your application is subject to the statutory processing period of 30 days. However, we may extend this deadline due to a high volume of inquiries, for legal or technical reasons or because we need further information from you. You will be informed about the extension of the deadline in a timely manner, at least in text form.

 

b. Deletion and correction

You have the option to request the deletion or correction of your data at any time. We can reject the request if legal regulations require us to store it for a longer period of time or without changes or if there is a permit that conflicts with your request.

Please note that exercising your rights may conflict with contractual agreements and may have corresponding effects on the execution of the contract (e.g. premature termination of the contract or cost consequences).

 

c. Legal recourse

We may use web beacons on our website. Web beacons are also known as web beacons. Web beacons – including those from third parties whose services we use – are small, usually invisible images that are automatically retrieved when you visit our website.

7.5 Success and reach measurement

 

How does success and reach measurement work?

Our notifications and communications may contain web links or web beacons that record whether an individual communication has been opened and which web links were clicked. Such web links and web beacons can also record the use of notifications and messages on a personal basis.

What information do we pass on to third parties and how is this data used?

Your data will be treated confidentially and will only be passed on to third parties as part of the contract processing and as necessary. In order to process the delivery of your order, your name and address must be sent to the carrier.

Ticket sales are processed by the third party provider. The payment and contact details you provide will be passed on to the freight forwarder for the purpose of processing payments and carrying out the dunning process. The freight forwarder works on our behalf and may not use the transmitted data for its own purposes.

 

7.6 Cookies

 

How do cookies work?

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are data sets that are stored on your device’s operating system using the browser when you access our website. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses.

 

What information do we receive and how do we use it?

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit. This allows us to save certain settings (such as language settings or location information) so that you do not have to re-enter them when you visit the website again.

 

Why are we allowed to use cookies?

We use cookies so that we can make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. The use of cookies and the related processing of your data is based on our legitimate interests in the stated purposes.

 

How can you prevent data collection via cookies?

The cookies are stored on your computer. You therefore have full control over the use of cookies. You can delete these completely or deactivate or restrict transmission by changing the settings in your browser. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it may no longer be possible to use all functions of the website to their full extent.

 

7.7 Google Analytics

On our website we use Google Analytics, a service provided by Google Ireland Ltd., Google Building Gordon House, Barrow St, Dublin 4, Ireland with headquarters at Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, both together “Google”.

 

What data do we process?

Google Analytics is an analysis service for websites to collect information about the use of the website. In particular, the following information may be recorded:

  • IP address
  • Technical information such as browser, operating system or screen resolution
  • Interactions on the website
  • Duration of the visit
  • Time and date of the website access
  • Referrer URL

 

The IP address is anonymized by Google Analytics so that personal reference is no longer possible. When a visitor visits our website for the first time, Google Analytics can generate an identifier to recognize the visitor when they visit the website again. If you are logged in with your Google account, data processing can also take place across devices.

 

For what purpose do we process the data?

Your IP address is used to determine your approximate location. We can use the information gained from this to measure the relevance of our offers in different regions. We also use the IP address to determine where website visitors came to our website from. The technical information is processed so that the website can be viewed satisfactorily on any device. The interactions, duration, time and date are collected so that we can use this data to evaluate and optimize our marketing campaigns and offers. We can also use this data to determine how visitors interact with our website, i.e. which content is popular with which visitors. The referrer URL is processed for the purpose of measuring the effectiveness and analysis of various marketing channels.

 

Who do we pass on the data to?

The transfer of data by us is based on our statements on data transfer. Because Google is a transnational company, your data may be transferred by Google anywhere in the world. In particular, you may be transferred to Google’s headquarters in the USA. A country where legislation does not ensure adequate data protection.
