Global-Tickets Privacy Policy

 
 

We are delighted that you are interested in our online shop. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about the handling of your data.

1. Data Controller and Contact Data

The Data Controller for the processing is the firm TD Entertainment C.V. and processes the data communicated by the data subject in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The contact details of the Data Controller are as follows:

Address: Winschoterdiep 50, 9723AB Groningen, Netherlands
Fax: +49 (0)40 / 301 87 605

2. Access Data and Hosting

You can visit our websites without giving any details about your person. Each time a website is called up, the web server only stores a so-called server log file automatically which, for example, contains the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of the call, the amount of data transmitted and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the call.

This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offers. This serves to protect our legitimate interests, which are the predominant aspects of a balancing of interests, in the correct presentation of our offer in accordance with Art. 6, para. 1, sentence 1 f GDPR. All access data will be erased no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the site.

Hosting Services through a Third-Party Provider

As part of processing on our behalf, a third-party provider provides us with the services for hosting and presentation of the website. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in the correct presentation of our offer, which are the predominant aspects of a balancing of interests. All data which is collected within the context of the use of this website or in the forms provided for this purpose in the online shop as described below is processed on its servers. Processing on other servers is only carried out within the framework described here. This service provider is located within a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area.


3. Data Collection and Use for Contract Processing and the Opening of a Customer Account

We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us in connection with your order, when contacting us (e.g. via a contact form or email) or when opening a customer account. Required fields are marked as such, since in these cases we require the data for contract processing or for processing your contact or opening the customer account and you cannot complete the order and/or the opening of the account or cannot send the contact information without providing this data. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data provided by you in accordance with Art. 6, para. 1, sentence 1 b GDPR for execution of the contract and processing your enquiries. After the complete processing of the contract or deletion of your customer account, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the expiry of the storage periods required under tax and commercial law, unless you have expressly consented to the further use of your data or we reserve the right to use the data for other purposes which go beyond this, which are permitted by law and about which we inform you in this declaration. The deletion of your customer account is possible at any time and can be carried out either via a message to the contact option described below or via a function intended for this purpose in the customer account.


4. Data Forwarding

In order to fulfil the contract in accordance with Art. 6, para. 1, sentence 1 b GDPR, we forward your data to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, provided that this is necessary for the delivery of goods that have been ordered. Depending on which payment service provider you select in the order process, we forward the payment data collected for the processing of payments to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, if applicable, to payment service providers commissioned by us or to the selected payment service. In some cases the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account with them. In this case you must log into the ordering process with your access data of the payment service provider. The data protection declaration of the respective payment service provider applies in this respect.


5. Cookies, web analytics and Facebook Pixel

Advertising Alliance

The provider makes use of the services of Advertising Alliance GmbH from Hamburg. For the purposes of advertising and for the needs-based design of internet sites, user profiles are created using pseudonyms. The profiles only contain such information that applies to a sufficiently large group of people. They will not be merged with other information that enables the user to be identified. This is ensured by the provider as well as by the Advertising Alliance by gathering, processing and using the data technically and organisationally separately.
More information as well as the opportunity to object to the collection of data through the so-called opt-out option can be found here https://advertising-alliance.de/datenschutz/
Alternatively, the user can activate the “Do Not Track” option in the privacy settings of their browser. As a result, the browser automatically informs the system that the user does not wish to create user profiles. Advertising Alliance recognises and takes this notification into account.
 


6. Advertising via Marketing Networks

Google AdWords Remarketing

We use Google AdWords to advertise this website in Google search results and on third-party websites. When you visit our website, Google will set the remarketing cookie which automatically enables interest-based advertising through the use of a pseudonymous cookie ID and on the basis of the pages you have visited. The purpose of this process, in accordance with Art. 6 (1) section 1 f) GDPR, is to safeguard our legitimate interests in marketing our website in the best possible way which are seen as overriding when weighed against other interests. The data collected in this context will be erased once our use of Google AdWords remarketing has served its purpose.

No further processing of data will take place unless you have granted Google permission to link your Google web and app browser history to your Google account and to use information from your Google account to personalise adverts which you see on the web. In this case, if you are logged into Google while browsing our website, Google will use your data in conjunction with Google Analytics data in order to produce and define audience lists for cross-device remarketing purposes. Your personal data will therefore be temporarily linked to Google Analytics data by Google in order to compile target groups.
