• Your telephone number

in order to answer your contact request. We do this based on your consent given by sending these data to us and on our legitimate interest. 

 

1.3 Newsletter

Your registration is necessary if you would like to subscribe to our newsletter. For this purpose, we require at least the following for data processing: 

• First name and surname
•  E-mail address

By registering, you consent to our processing of the data you provide to enable us to regularly send the newsletter to your address, and for the statistical evaluation of user behaviour and to optimise our newsletter.

You are entitled to revoke your consent to receive the newsletter and to process your e-mail address at any time. You will find a corresponding link for this purpose at the end of each newsletter. Your personal data will be deleted after you unsubscribe from the newsletter.

We commission third parties to create, send and evaluate user behaviour for our newsletter and to transfer your data for this purpose.

We would also like to point out that we evaluate your user behaviour when the newsletter is sent. Our newsletter may use web beacons or tracking pixels or similar technical aids for this purpose. In the process, we record when you read our news-letter as well as which of its links you click.

We use the data thus obtained to create a user profile in order to tailor the newsletter to your individual interests. We pay attention to the proportionality and reliability of the results and take measures against misuse of these profiles.

In order to disable tracking pixels, you can deactivate the display of images in your e-mail program by default. The tracking pixels will also be deleted with the deletion of the newsletter.

 

1.4 Participation in contests, loyalty or customer retention programmes and customer satisfaction surveys

We regularly provide you with the opportunity to participate online or offline in contests as well as loyalty or customer retention programmes and we conduct customer satisfaction surveys. You have the opportunity to participate voluntarily. In the event of your participation, we require some or all of the following personal data from you, depending on the competition or customer loyalty programme, in particular

• Title and/or company
• First name and surname
• E-mail address
• Postal address
• Telephone number
• Age
• Driving license (category/number)

In some cases, the data provided by you will be transferred to third parties, especially if we conduct contests or customer loyalty programmes or customer satisfaction surveys together with partners or suppliers. These partners or suppliers are carefully selected by us and are obligated to follow our instructions. If such partners or suppliers qualify as third parties who pursue their own purpose with the data, they will be disclosed on a case by case basis in connection with contests as well as loyalty or customer retention programmes.

You have the right to revoke your consent to the processing of your personal data at any time by sending an e-mail toprivacy.ch@autogrill.net or through the relevant website. If your revocation occurs before the conclusion of the contest or the customer loyalty programme or the customer satisfaction survey, then your revocation also means a revocation of participation. Revocation of consent does not, however, affect the lawfulness of the processing based on the consent prior to revocation.

 

1.5 Reservations and bookings of restaurant or hotel services, the ordering of goods

It is possible to make reservations and bookings on our website or on the website of our individual businesses, particularly restaurants or hotels. 

It may be also feasible that you can order goods via our online shop.

The mandatory details are specially indicated in each case, and additional information is voluntary. We may also ask for health-related data, such as information about an allergy that we should know.

The legal basis for the data processing is the fulfilment of the reservation and/or services requested by you or the fulfilment of the contract in accordance with applicable law.

If you have given us your corresponding consent during the reservation/booking or ordering process, then we can also process the data that you have provided in order to send you further marketing information, in particular information about special offers or new products, either electronically (via newsletter, e-mail, SMS, social media) or by post. You have the right to revoke your consent to this further use of your data for the delivery of marketing information at any time.

We may also transfer the personal data to external service providers appointed for performing the services such as reservation services providers, IT services providers, payment service providers for ensuring the payment process, including banks.

Due to legal requirements, we are obligated to store contract-relevant data for 10 years.

We sometimes use external service providers to process your data for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy such as payments service suppliers, reservation services providers, email service providers, cloud service providers, IT service providers, advertising agencies etc. and in order to provide our services. These are carefully selected and commissioned by us, and they are subject to our instructions and are monitored to ensure data security.

Moreover, we may transfer your personal data to companies that belong to the Autogrill Group as well as to third parties, if

4. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We normally store and process the personal data in Switzerland and/or in Italy and other EU / EFTA member states. However, some of our service providers, partners or other providers commissioned by us as well as other companies in the Autogrill Group, to which we may transfer the personal data for the aforementioned purposes, are located abroad. Your data may therefore be processed outside of Switzerland. This includes both, countries within the European Economic Area and other countries abroad. If the recipient of the personal data is located in a country without a sufficient data protection level, e.g. USA, then we will implement contractual clauses, normally EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or any other measures as may be required in order to comply with the applicable Swiss and/or EU data protection regulations. An exception may apply for example in case of legal proceedings abroad, but also in cases of overriding public interest or if the performance of a contract requires disclosure, if you have consented or if data has been made available generally by you and you have not objected against the processing.

 

5. DATA SECURITY

In order to protect your data against manipulation, partial or complete loss and against unauthorised access by third parties, we take appropriate technical and organisational security measures. These are continuously improved in accordance with technological developments.

Our security measures also include the contractual involvement of our employees and contractual partners (e.g. service providers and external service providers etc.).

 

6. STORAGE OF YOUR DATA

We only store personal data as long as it is required for the purpose for which it is processed or due to statutory retention obligations and where our legitimate interests in documentation and keeping evidence require it or storage is a technical requirement. The duration varies, depending on the type of data.

• The right to information as to whether and which of your personal data we have stored and about the processing of such data.
