7. Facebook
We use social plugins (“plugins”) from the social network Facebook on our website. Facebook is operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”). The plugins can be identified by one of the Facebook logos (a white “f” on a blue tile or a “thumbs up” symbol) or by the wording “Facebook Social Plugin.”
When you visit a page on our website that contains such plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook’s servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook directly to your browser and integrated into the website. We therefore have no influence over the extent of the data collected by Facebook through these plugins and can only provide you with information based on our current knowledge.
By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives information that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website. If you are a Facebook member and are logged into your account, Facebook may associate your visit with your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the Like button or posting a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to Facebook and stored there. Even if you are not a Facebook member, Facebook may still obtain and store your IP address. According to Facebook, only an anonymized IP address is stored in Germany.
For information about the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this regard and the settings available to protect your privacy, please refer to Facebook’s privacy policy at www.facebook.com/policy.php.
If you are a Facebook member and do not want Facebook to collect data about you through this website and associate it with your member data stored by Facebook, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website. You can also block Facebook social plugins by using browser add-ons, such as “Facebook Blocker.” Further settings and options for objecting to the use of data for advertising purposes are available in your Facebook profile settings at www.facebook.com/settings.
8. Booking Online Tickets
When booking online tickets directly through our website, information relating to your booking is transmitted to the relevant service provider.
