-

-
Information about the browser typeInformation about the operating system used
-
The time and duration of the visitInformation about the Internet service provider

Collecting and processing are thus based on our legitimate interests. The user is not identified within the scope of these activities. In addition to this and as a matter of principle, no connection is established between this automatically collected information and personal data we already have stored. There may, however, be an exception to this fundamental rule if you already have a registered user account
b. When You Subscribe to Our Newsletter
Our website provides an option to subscribe to our newsletter. We use this newsletter to provide information about all kind of news in regard of events available on our platform. If you would like to subscribe to our newsletter, we will need your email address so that we can send it to you. Processing of your data after you subscribe to our newsletter is based on the fact that we have your consent. Within the scope of the subscription process we will therefore obtain your consent to processing of your data and draw your attention to this data protection declaration. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter and withdraw the consent you have given at any time. To do this, click the corresponding button in the newsletter which you have received. The link unsubscribe from the newsletter is provided at the end of every newsletter.

c. When You Make a Contact Enquiry
Our portals provide an option to establish contact with us by email. In such cases we will process the information which you provide to facilitate correspondence with you and/or for the purpose of processing your enquiry and further contact.
Processing your personal data is based on our legitimate interest in processing your enquiry. This legitimate interest in processing is based on the desire to communicate with you quickly and to answer your enquiry. Where the establishment of contact serves to facilitate performance of a contract to which you are a party or to carry out measures prior to concluding a contract, then this will provide an additional basis for processing of your data.
You can object to this processing at any time. Please send your objection to the following email address: info@beetickets.ch with the subject heading “Stop processing”.
Your data will be erased if circumstances indicate that the relevant issue has been conclusively clarified and erasure is not prevented by any legal archiving obligations.

-
Salutation
-
First and surname*
-
Full delivery address (street, postcode, place, country)*

The mandatory information is required to process your order and delivery and thus also to perform our contractual obligations.
When we process your order we will forward the data required to process it and make delivery to the service providers we use, such as transport companies and payment service providers (Mastercard, Visa, Twint, PayPal, PostFinance). The payment service provider you chose will be responsible for your payment data. We will not receive any information regarding your payment data. The corresponding online payment system provider’s relevant data protection regulations will apply in addition to our regulations.

We process the personal data of our principals, customers, clients, contractual partners and potential customers to facilitate performance of contractual services or measures prior to conclusion of contracts. The personal data processed in this regard; the type; the extent and the purpose as well as the necessity of its processing are determined by the contractual relationship on which processing is based. Processed data includes our contractual partners’ master data (e.g. names and addresses), contact data (e.g. email addresses and telephone numbers) and contract data (e.g. services which have been used; contract contents; contractual communications, names of contact persons) and payment data (e.g. bank details, payment history). We do not, as a matter of principle, process special categories of personal data unless they are included in processing which has been commissioned or are integral to a contract.
We process personal data which is required to establish and perform contractual services and, insofar as this is not obvious to the contractual partners, make them aware that this data is required.
Data is erased when it is no longer required to fulfill contractual or legal obligations or in connection with any warranty or comparable (archiving) obligations.
f. For Marketing and Analysis Purposes
Our goal is to continuously improve the digital offerings which we provide and thus make them more needs-oriented and secure. To this end, we may use a variety of analysis, marketing and tracking services to continuously link the user-specific historic and future data which is available to us to analyse, pseudonymise and anonymise user behaviour across services. For more information about the services used, see Section 5 of this data protection declaration. We may also acquire publicly accessible data or third-party provider data to improve our database.

-
To improve our offering and structure it in a more needs-oriented manner;
-
To manager our customer relationship with you and make it more customer-friendly;
-
To inform you via personalised advertising about certain topics and products which could interest you.
This relates to both personalised advertising by email and also, for example, to emails including general information or of an advertising nature; by text messages, image messages and via instant messaging services as well as the provision of personalised content and advertising on our websites.
You may object to this data processing at any time. Should you object, then we will no longer process your data for this purpose. Please send your objection to info@beetickets.ch with the subject heading “Please stop data processing for advertising purposes”.
3. Cookies
Cookies help to make your visit to our portals easier, more pleasant and more efficient. Cookies are information files which your web browser automatically installs on your computer hard drive when you visit our website. They do not damage your computer’s hard drive and do not transmit user data to us.
Among other things, we use cookies to identify who has visited our portals and, from this, to derive information about how often certain pages or offerings are visited; which areas of the portals are particularly popular and to generally identify how the portal is used. We use other cookies to allow you to move freely around our portals and to use their functionalities, such as to access protected areas. Such cookies may also be required to use shopping basket or payment functions. The deployment of cookies also allows you to use options which you have selected or decisions which you have made as settings to make your visit to the portal more efficient.
In general we use cookies to improve our services and make them more efficient and secure. Cookies are also used to collect information, allowing us to show you advertising which could be interest.
Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies. You can, however, reconfigure your browser settings at any time to prevent the installation of cookies on your computer or to always notify you when a new cookie is received. Our digital offerings can, as a matter of principle, also be used without cookies; this may, however, result in limitations to certain features. For more information about cookies and the corresponding services which we use, see Section 5 of this data protection declaration.
4. Analysis, Marketing and Tracking Services
Our portals use a variety of services to carry out website analysis, marketing and tracking, all of which are described in more detail below. Insofar as we request you to provide your consent to the use of third-party service providers, this consent is the legal basis for such data processing. Should we not obtain your consent, then your data will be processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. for optimisation and marketing purposes and the interest-related structuring of our websites).
a. Google Service
Our portals use a variety of services provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA respectively, if you are habitually resident in the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland, Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Eire (“Google”).
Google uses technologies such as cookies, web storage in the browser and tracking pixels to analyse use of our websites. So-called user profiles may be created for these purposes and stored in a cookie (e.g. content viewed, websites visited and the elements used there as well as technical data such as the browser used, the computer system used and information about use times). Insofar as users have consented to collection of their location data, it may also be processed, depending on the provider.
Users’ IP addresses are also stored; however we use an IP masking procedure (i.e. pseudonymisation by truncating the IP address) to protect users. As a general rule no unmasked data on users (such as email addresses or names) is stored within the scope of web analysis and online marketing; it is pseudonymised instead. In other words, we, and also Google, do not know users’ actual identities; we only have the information stored in their profiles to facilitate the corresponding processes.
Information regarding your use of our portals which is generated in this way may be transmitted to a Google server in the USA, where it will be stored. Insofar as personal data is processed in the USA, please note that Google is certified in line with the Swiss-US and EU-US privacy shield agreements and thus guarantees to comply with Swiss and/or European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
You can prevent the installation of cookies by selecting the corresponding settings in your browser software. Please however be aware that should you do so, you may not be able to use all the features of our website to their full extent.
Insofar as no explicit objection option has been given (opt-out), you can, furthermore, object to the use of cookies which serve to measure reach and advertising purposes via the deactivation site of the network initiative https://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1 and, in addition to this, via the US website https://optout.aboutads.info/?c=2&lang=EN or the European website https://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices.

When doing so, we are only informed about the anonymous total number of users who clicked our ad and were taken to a site fitted with a so-called “conversion tracking tag”.

Your data may, furthermore, be stored for the period during which claims can be exercised against us and insofar as we are otherwise legally obliged to do so or legitimate interests require this (e.g. for proof and documentation purposes).
