  This information on data protection is based on the following terms on data protection, which we have defined for easier understanding:
  

  • 1.3.1 The GDPR is the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC).
  
  
  • 1.3.2 Recipient is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body to which personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether it is a third party or not. Authorities, however, which within the framework of a specific inquiry mandate may receive personal data under Union law or the law of the Member States shall not be considered recipients; the processing of such data by these said authorities is carried out in accordance with the applicable directives on data protection in accordance with the purposes of the processing. Depending on the method of payment selected for ticket purchases, the recipients of your personal data may be banks or the postal service providers via whom we send you your ticket by post.
  
  
  • 1.3.3 Personal data are all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, i.e. the data subject. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by assignment to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. Personal data can, for example, be name, contact data, user behaviour or bank data.
  
  
  • 1.3.4 The Controller is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are laid down by Union law or by the law of the Member States, the controller or the specific criteria for his appointment may be laid down in accordance with Union law or the law of the Member States. For the data processing described in this privacy policy, CEV is responsible.
  
  
  • 1.3.5 Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organising, structuring, storing, adapting or altering, retrieving, consulting, using, disclosing by transfer, disseminating or otherwise making available, aligning or combining, restricting, erasing or destroying.

  • 2.1.2 Processing for analytical purposes
    • 1. When you visit our websites, we may possibly analyse and document how you use our websites, e.g., number of website visitors, your surfing behaviour on our websites, which events and areas on our website you are interested in, origin of website visitors and, if you purchase a ticket from us, your order and shopping cart data. For this purpose, we process the following personal data:

    • 3. For this analysis, we use Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of the use of our websites. The information generated by the cookie about the use of our websites is in general transferred to a Google server in the US and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on our websites, Google will reduce the IP address of the website visitor within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the US and shortened there. On behalf of CEV, Google will use this information to evaluate the use of the websites, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide CEV with further services associated with the use of the website and the Internet.
      
      The IP address transferred by the user's browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.
      
      Our websites use Google Analytics with the extension "_anonymizelp()". As a result, IP addresses are processed further in abbreviated form; direct personal reference can thus be ruled out.

In the case of the US, the EU Commission has not decided that an adequate level of data protection within the meaning of the GDPR exists; there is no such adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR). However, we transfer your data for the purpose of contract execution with you on the basis of Art. 49 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. b) and c) GDPR.
