  • Right to erasure of your personal data
  • Right to report to the competent supervisory authority
  • Right to enforce your interests in court

Please note that the exercise of certain rights may contradict contractual agreements. This may in turn affect the performance of the contract (e.g. termination of the contract or cost consequences).

We process your personal data for various purposes. Primarily, the processing is necessary to provide you with our products and services.

6.1 Contract Fulfilment

In order to enter into and carry out contracts with you, we generally need to process your personal data. This applies, for example, when you book a trip with us, make a purchase in our bike shop, or use a service from our workshop.

In the context of fulfilling a contract, we may process the following categories of personal data in particular:

  • Personal identification data (e.g. name, date of birth, gender, ID/passport number, passport validity date)
  • Contact information (e.g. home/delivery address, email address, phone number)
  • Financial data (e.g. payment details)
  • Behavioral and transaction data (e.g. shopping cart contents, booking and purchasing behavior)
  • Profile data or personal preference data (e.g. interactions with our travel agency, bike shop, or workshop)

We may process your data as necessary for contract initiation, conclusion, execution, or enforcement. Your data may also be processed for emergency communication purposes.

In order to deliver a service, your data may be shared with a service provider (e.g. airline or hotel). Please note that Eitziner Bike Holiday GmbH may act solely as an intermediary in such cases. In those instances, the service provider processes your data under their own responsibility and their respective privacy policies apply. Additionally, data is exchanged with payment service providers for the purpose of payment processing.

6.2 Communication

To communicate with you and respond to your inquiries, we must process your personal data. This occurs, for example, when you use our contact form, email, call, write to us, or when we reach out to you with questions.

We may process the following categories of data in the context of communication:

  • Personal identification data (e.g. name, date of birth, gender)
  • Contact information (e.g. address, email address, phone number)
  • Content and metadata of communication (e.g. details about the content, type, time, and location of the communication)

We may carry out all processing activities necessary for communication with you.

6.3 Marketing

We would like to regularly provide you with offers and news about our products and services through various channels. We may also inform you about products and services of our partners and third parties that we believe may be of interest to you.

To inform you about attractive and relevant offers and to keep you updated with important news, we process your personal data for marketing purposes. This may happen, for instance, when you book a trip with us, make a purchase in our bike shop, or use a service in our workshop.

For marketing purposes, we may process the following categories of personal data:

  • Personal identification data (e.g. name, date of birth, gender)
  • Contact information (e.g. home/delivery address, email address, phone number)
  • Behavioral and transaction data (e.g. shopping cart details, purchasing/booking behavior)
  • Online identifiers (e.g. cookie IDs, IP addresses)
  • Tracking and traffic data (e.g. browsing and click behavior)
  • Profile data or personal preference data (e.g. product or service preferences)

Marketing includes all processing activities that allow us to inform you appropriately about our offerings. We may send you written and electronic information or offers. This includes, in particular:

  • Sending newsletters, emails, push notifications via our website, and other electronic messages
  • Sending printed materials such as brochures, magazines, or other mailings
  • Displaying digital advertisements (e.g. search ads, display ads, video ads, social ads)
  • Issuing vouchers and inviting you to events or sweepstakes

We may also process your personal data for additional purposes, including but not limited to:

  • Market and opinion research
  • Assertion of legal claims
  • Compliance with legal obligations and the prevention or investigation of crimes or misconduct
  • Evaluation and improvement of internal processes and for administrative purposes

Normally, you provide us with your personal data yourself, for example by sending it to us or when you communicate with us.

In certain cases, we also collect data about you ourselves or automatically, for example when you use our services, book with us or surf our website. This includes, in particular, behavioral and transaction data, online identifiers as well as tracking and traffic data.

We may also receive your personal data from third parties. These may be the following third parties, for example:

  • People from your environment
  • Banks and other contractual partners
  • Online service providers
  • Authorities
  • Registers and public sources
  • Companies affiliated with Eitzinger Bike Holiday GmbH

The legal basis for the collection and processing of your personal data depends on the specific purpose of the data processing.

We process your data in good faith and for the purposes set out in this privacy policy (see section 6).

If this is necessary, we base the processing on a justification. The following justifications typically come into question:

  • Consent on your part
  • Execution of a contract or pre-contractual measures
  • Compliance with legal requirements
  • Balancing of legitimate interests

You can revoke any consent you have given for data processing at any time (see also section 5). The legality of the data processing that has already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.

We will only pass on your personal data if we have a legal basis for doing so. The data is always transmitted for a specified purpose.

9.1 Affiliated companies

We only pass on your personal data to affiliated companies for administrative purposes. In these cases, the data will not be processed for the respective companies' own purposes.

9.2 Third parties

We may pass on your personal data to third parties if this is necessary in the context of contract processing or other purposes (see section 6). This may be, for example, a company entrusted with the performance of a service or a credit institution commissioned to process a payment. Such third parties are contractually obliged to process your personal data exclusively on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions. In addition, third parties must ensure the security of your personal data by means of suitable technical and organizational measures.

If Eitzinger Bike Holiday GmbH only acts as an agent for the services offered, the data necessary for the provision of the service will also be passed on to the relevant service provider (e.g. flight or hotel provider). In this case, this service provider processes your data under its own responsibility and its privacy policy applies.

As far as possible, we process your personal data in Switzerland or the European Economic Area (EEA). Under certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to service providers abroad as part of order processing. The transfer may take place worldwide.

Data will only be transferred to a third country in the absence of adequate data protection in the third country concerned if the processor has provided guarantees deemed appropriate by the legislator to ensure data protection. In such a case, a transfer will only take place after a prior risk assessment. If we deem it necessary to take additional technical measures to safeguard the integrity and confidentiality of the personal data transmitted, we will ensure this.

We only process particularly sensitive personal data if this is absolutely necessary for the provision of our services and you have provided us with this data or have consented to its processing.

We only store personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfill the individual purposes for which the data was collected or if we are legally obliged to store it for longer.

We store your personal data as securely as possible and take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data from loss, access, misuse or alteration. Both our contractual partners and our employees are obliged to comply with the applicable data protection regulations.

When you visit our website, certain data is automatically stored on our servers or on servers of services that we purchase and/or have installed. This is done for the purposes of system administration, security, tracking or statistical analysis. This may involve the following data, for example:

  • Location, date and time of access
  • IP address
  • Operating system and browser information
  • Name of Internet service provider
  • Websites you have previously visited
  • Search terms you used to find our website

The collection of these log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. You therefore have no option to object to this. The data is only stored for as long as is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Normally, the data is deleted at the end of each session.

We operate pages on social networks and other platforms operated by third parties (fan pages, channels, profiles, etc.). We may collect data about you there. We receive this information both from you and from the platforms when you contact us via our pages (e.g. through communication, comments or visits).

The platforms analyze your use of our pages and link this data with other information they know about you (e.g. behavior and preferences). The platforms process this data independently and also for their own purposes.

We use this data in particular for communication, marketing and market research purposes. We may also use content published by you (e.g. comments), e.g. in our advertising on the platform or elsewhere. Both we and the platform operators may remove or restrict content from or about you in accordance with the usage guidelines (e.g. inappropriate comments).

For further information on the data processing of the platform operators, please refer to the data protection information of the respective platform.
