The processing of the data is carried out for the purpose of payment processing with regard to contractual services and is based on Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter b) DS-GVO.

Your data may also be disclosed if this is necessary to protect our rights, the rights of the payment service provider, to enforce the terms and conditions of the payment service provider or to comply with requirements of law enforcement authorities.

Where required by law, we store payment processing data for at least the legally prescribed minimum period of 10 years (Section 147 (3) of the German Fiscal Code). Insofar as no longer storage period is required, this data is subsequently deleted.

When payment is made by credit card or SEPA direct debit, personal data is automatically transmitted to the payment service CTS Eventim KG a. A. is transmitted. The operating company of the payment service is CTS Eventim KG a. A., Cotrescarpe 75A, 21895 Bremen, Germany (hereinafter referred to as “Eventim”).

When paying by SEPA direct debit, the personal data required to process the payment are the first and last name of the account holder and the bank account data in the form of the IBAN. As part of the payment confirmation, you must also accept a mandate that gives us authorisation to debit your account.

3 How do we handle your data?

When processing data, it is our aim to always achieve the highest possible level of security within the scope of the respective purpose of use. Although absolute protection cannot be guaranteed, we have therefore taken security precautions to protect your data.

This includes, for example, that we only ever transmit your data in encrypted form. To this end, we use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) or TLS (Transport Layer Security) coding system, which is designed to prevent third parties from intercepting the data streams and viewing your data in plain text. You can recognise the use of the SSL coding system by the “https://” in the address line of your browser and, in common browsers, by the fact that a corresponding lock symbol appears next to the address line. This gives you the certainty that your data will be transmitted to us securely.

 

4 How long do we keep your data?

We process and store personal data for the period of time required to achieve the stated purpose (see section 2).

After the purpose has been fulfilled, or if you wish your personal data to be deleted, we will delete this data unless we are legally entitled to retain it (for example, for evidence purposes in the context of the processing of our contractual relationship) or are obliged to do so (for example, for tax reasons). This storage period may be longer than was necessary for the original purpose (standard storage period). In the case of the storage of billing documents, for example, we are obliged to store them for a period of 10 years (Section 147 (3) of the German Fiscal Code).

If the original purpose has been achieved or has ceased to apply, we will not use the personal data for further processing. Once the authorisation no longer applies or the statutory retention obligations have expired, we will delete the data permanently.
