Source of Data

EventCart processes two types of information relating to the Users: (i) User Data; and (ii) Technical Data. User Data is usually information that is associable with a specific User of the Site and is therefore usually considered personal data under applicable laws. Although Technical Data is usually non-personally identifiable information, a User can sometimes be recognized from it. In such situations, Technical Data can also be considered personal data under applicable laws.

User Data is collected from the Users for example when Users visit our Site, register on the Site, place an order, subscribe to our newsletter, fill out a form, and in connection with other activities, services, features or resources we make available on our Site. "User Data" may be the User’s name, email address, mailing address, phone number and credit card information. We also collect details of any transactions and other actions Users carry out through the Site. Users may, however, visit our Site without providing User Data to us. We will collect User Data from Users only if they voluntarily submit such information to us e.g. by using features of the Site requiring the processing of the User’s personal data.

We may collect Technical Data about Users whenever they interact with our Site. "Technical Data" may include the browser name, the type of computer and technical information about Users means of connection to our Site, such as the operating system and the Internet service providers utilized, and other similar information.

Web browser cookies and user analytics

Our Site may use "cookies" to enhance User experience. We may also allow third-parties, such as advertisers, to place separate cookies on a User’s computer (so-called third-party cookies) when a User browses the Site. We have no access to or control over such third-party cookies. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by EventCart only and does not cover the use of third party cookies by any advertiser or other third party. A User may choose to set their web browser to refuse cookies, or to alert the User when cookies are being sent. If cookies are being refused, some parts of the Site may not function properly. The Network Advertising Iniative provides opt-out mechanisms from some behavioral online advertising: www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Users located in the European Union can learn of their rights relating to online advertising on www.youronlinechoices.eu.

The Site may use Google Analytics, a web analytics and advertising service provided by Google, Inc. to compile reports on visitor usage and to help us improve the Site as well as for advertising purposes. For these purposes, Google Analytics uses cookies allowing the User’s computer to be recognized when the User returns to or browse through the Site.

Legal grounds for processing


EventCart processes your personal data to perform our contractual obligations towards you and to comply with legal obligations. Furthermore, we process your personal data to pursue our legitimate interest to run, maintain and develop our business and to create and maintain customer relationships.

We store personal data only as long as such processing is required by law or is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. Once the data is no longer necessary, we delete it as soon as possible.

How we protect your information

We use technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of personal information, username, password, transaction information and data stored on our Site. Sensitive and private data exchange between the Site and its Users happens over an SSL secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures.

Should despite of the security measures, a security breach occur that is likely to have negative effects to the privacy of the Users, we will inform the relevant Users as well as relevant authorities when required by applicable data protection laws, about the breach as soon as possible.

Data Disclosures and Transfers

We share your personal data primarily only within the organization of EventCart as far as reasonably necessary for the purposes of this Privacy Policy. We do not share personal data with outside parties except to the extent necessary for the purposes of providing the Site as set out in this Privacy Policy. Third parties may be used in processing personal data on behalf of the controller EventCart. Such third parties may be payment service providers that enable us to provide the Site to its Users.

However, in the following situations your personal data may be shared with third parties.

When a User purchases tickets to Events through the Site, the registration information to such Event submitted by the User in connection with such purchase will be disclosed to the Event Organizer set out on the Site. EventCart is not responsible for any processing of personal data carried out by the Event Organizers.

We may share generic aggregated demographic information not linked to any personal data regarding the Site with our business partners, trusted affiliates and advertisers for the purposes outlined above.

We may disclose personal data to public authorities if we are legally required to do so or if we need to protect our rights. We may also disclose or transfer personal data to our group companies, subsidiaries and affiliates or to a subsequent or new owner/operator of the Site in case the Site, we, our stock and/or assets are acquired or in case of merger, restructuring, bankruptcy, or other corporate reorganization.

Personal data is not regularly transferred outside the European Union or the European Economic Area (EEA).
