Welcome to our Privacy Policy

We are delighted by your interest in our company. The protection of your personal data is of particular importance to the management of BlaueReise.com. In principle, it is possible to use the BlaueReise.com websites without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use special services of our company via our website, processing of personal data may be necessary. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.

The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to BlaueReise.com. With this privacy policy, our company would like to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed about the rights to which they are entitled.

BlaueReise.com has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures as the controller to ensure the most complete protection possible for the personal data processed via this website. However, internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.

3. Cookies

The BlaueReise.com websites use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored and saved on a computer system via an internet browser. Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie, consisting of a string of characters that enables websites and servers to be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies.

Cookie Management

Users can adjust their cookie settings in a consent management tool available on our website. There, they can specifically select which types of cookies they wish to accept.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of an appropriate setting of the internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies. Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via the internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers. If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

Newsletter Tracking

The newsletters contain so-called tracking pixels. This allows us to recognize whether and when an email was opened and which links in the email were accessed. This data is used to optimize newsletter dispatch and better tailor the content of future newsletters to the interests of data subjects.

The subscription to our newsletter can be cancelled by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for sending the newsletter can be revoked at any time.
