Without prejudice to your rights under applicable laws, this Privacy Policy is not contractual and does not form part of your contract with us.

When we use the term “personal data” in this Privacy Policy, we mean any information relating to you and through which you can be identified, directly or indirectly, or in combination with other information that we may hold. Personal data may include all sorts of things, for example, your name, phone number, email address, payment details, information relating to your travel itinerary (e.g. your booking reference number) or information on how you use our website and app or how you otherwise interact with us.

When we use the term “processing” of personal data, we mean any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means. All actions carried out on personal data, from collection and storage to alteration, use or disclosure thus constitute ‘processing’, e.g. we process your personal data when you change your booking or otherwise seek other support from us or when we send you newsletters or offers based on your preferences. 

The types of personal data that we collect will depend on our relationship with you, the circumstances of collection and the type of service you request from us. We collect some of your personal data directly from you, for example when you book a flight with us, use our website or our app, use our services or contact us. We may also receive your personal data from our suppliers who provide services to you on our behalf (for example when you provide feedback on our services), our partners when you purchase their travel-related products or third parties who act on your behalf, for example, travel agents, tour operators or other parties through which you may book a flight.  

We will only collect your personal data when we need to. Depending on the purposes for which we need to use your personal data, we may collect and process the following categories of information about you: 

Your name, surname and contact information, such as e-mail address, phone number, and postal address.

If you require special assistance or if you have specific dietary requirements. This information includes changes to your bookings or any travel products that relate to your bookings, for example, if you purchase travel insurance, buy a tour, rent a car or book a hotel along with your flight booking. Also, information about the purchase of products available on board.

Information of this nature is considered, “special categories of personal data” under GDPR. We will only collect and use this information where you have given your explicit consent, it is necessary to protect your interests, or you have deliberately made the information public. 

We collect the above information for your safety, for example, if you have a specific medical condition you need to inform us of that. 

If you require special assistance before or during a flight it can reveal information about your health, for example, we do need to know if you require a wheelchair to board a flight or if you are in your third trimester. 

Also, if you inform us about certain dietary requirements you have, this could indicate that you have specific religious beliefs. If you do not allow us to process any sensitive personal data, we may be unable to provide all or parts of the services you have requested from us. 

When you provide us with information that could be considered a special category of personal data, we will use it only in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We collect your personal data whenever you use our services (both services provided directly by us or by other companies or agents we work with), our website, call center or mobile applications when you travel with us. This includes, for example:

You should know that if you book a flight on behalf of someone else, you must have their consent to use their personal information.

Data protection laws allow us to process your personal data if we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis will depend on the reasons why we have collected and need to use your personal data (see further below for more information on the legal basis). Most of the time we will process your data in order to perform our contract with you and process your booking.

We collect and process personal data for the following purposes:

A) To provide our services to you and to manage your travel bookings

When you make a booking, we will create an account through which you can complete and manage your booking. We may also do so when you make a booking through another party or by using another website. If you no longer wish to use your account, you can deactivate it, but if you decide to make a booking again, you will need to create a new account with us. 

When you book a flight with us, we use your data to perform our services in relation to your flight and to deliver other services you have asked us to provide, for example, to process and manage your booking, to verify credit or other charge card details, issue your flight ticket, check you in for your flight, accept you on board and get you to your destination. We also use your information when you are using our airport services, such as when you check-in at our desks at the airport and to change your flight bookings if you request such changes. 

B) To communicate with you and manage our relationship with you

We may need to use your contact information to keep you informed of your bookings. We will send you confirmation of your bookings and your payment. We may also send you reminders or information regarding your flight, for example when the check-in opens, gate change information and to advise you of any disruption and changes to your flight. If you are using our mobile app, we may also send you app notifications for these purposes. These communications are made for operational purposes, not for marketing purposes, and as such, you will continue to receive them even if you opt-out from receiving marketing communications.

If you contact customer support, send us a request, fill in a web-form through our website or contact us on social media, we will process your personal data to identify you and help you as best we can, for example in relation to mishandled or missing baggage claims or responding to other inquiries or requests. We may also examine the content of our communication with you, for example, the correspondence between us where we deal with your complaint, to improve our services and experiences for customers. 

When you contact us by phone, please note that your calls may be recorded for training and quality control purposes, including for monitoring the services we provide to you. 

C) To personalize and improve your customer experience

We will also use your information to fulfill our legitimate business interests. We strive to improve and simplify your booking experience while also tailoring our services to your needs and preferences. We want to give you personalized customer experience. In order to do all these things, we may use your personal data. For example, by knowing your preferred departure airport – we can provide you with offers for flights relevant to your location, as well as enabling us to provide you with more relevant communications on our webpage and in other channels. 

We may also collect information on which products or services you buy, how you use our website, etc. We do this in an effort to better understand what you like. We may use this information to personally tailor the content and offers you see, for example by delivering messages, offers and information that we think is relevant and may be of interest to you, prior to, during, and after your travel with us. They may also be used to personalize the services, content and offers on our websites and other sales and service channels including third-party websites and applications and via social media services.

D) For marketing communications

We may want to send you marketing communications for our flights, services, competitions, promotions or events. In addition, we may send you offers related to your upcoming flights or communications promoting our partner’s products and services that may relate to your travel arrangements. For this purpose, we will process your personal data, such as e-mail address, booking history or campaign participation history. 

In addition, we will send you communications promoting our partner’s products and services that may relate to your travel arrangements. 

For the purposes of providing you with marketing material, we will mainly contact you via email or send you notifications on our app. We might also use other ways to provide you with marketing material, news and offers, for example on your PLAY online account, through social media or when you contact us.

We value your privacy and will always respect your choice not to receive marketing communication. If you decide you would no longer be sent marketing communication, you can change your mind at any time.

E) To improve ourselves and to protect our business interests

We may use personal data to conduct statistical and marketing analyses for our products and services or products and services of third parties. Furthermore, we may use personal data to research or improve our products, services and marketing activities. 

We also use personal data to protect our business interests. For example, we will be using data related to you, for example, your name, email address, IP address and other credit card information for fraud screening, safety, security, and legal purposes.

F) To fulfill our legal obligations

We may process your personal data to comply with our legal obligations, for instance when we are obliged to maintain or provide information to government authorities or border control agencies.
