In addition, these cookies contribute to a secure use of the website that is conformity with the regulations.

Type and purpose of the processing:
On this website, we make use of the pass creation offer from YOUR PASS. In this way, for example, information or campaign passes for products can be created and stored on a private smartphone.
Wallet passes are small files which contain all the information required to display the pass – e.g. images and text. The passes are made available for iPhones and Android smartphones.
Once wallet passes are saved, the iPhone sends the user a message via the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS). In turn, this generates a random ID (a so-called Device Library Identifier) which is sent to YOUR PASS. This ID is used to update wallet passes, but does not allow the user to be identified. When the pass is deleted or the push notifications are deactivated, YOUR PASS is informed of this from APNS, which means that from that point in time, no more updates are sent to the smartphone of the user.
The passes of third-party provider apps for presenting wallet passes on Android smartphones work in the same way as was described for Apple products, with the difference that the Google push notification service is used.
When wallet passes are downloaded and opened via the smartphone (contents e.g. for the apps Apple Wallet or third-party provider apps for Android), there is no contractual relationship between the user and YOUR PASS. Only the obtained data “anonymous pass ID” and the associated “time stamp” are collected. The data processing is for securing the YOUR PASS system against attacks, for obtaining the desired pass and for allocating an anonymous ID.
Legal basis:
The legal basis for integrating YOUR PASS and the associated data processing is your consent (point (a) of Art. 6(1) GDPR).
Recipient:
The data recipient is YOUR PASS (YOUR PASS, s.r.o., Türkova 2319/5b, 149 00 Prague 4 – Chodov, Czech Republic) – and at the same time, the place of the processing in connection with Amazon Web Services in Frankfurt (GDPR Centre, Data Residency, FAQ Data Protection), which can be contacted by post via Amazon Web Services, 2021 Seventh Ave., Seattle, Washington 98121 USA. The functions within the EU are server infrastructure, web services, database and hosting.
Storage period:
Your personal data is erased or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. The technically necessary collection of accesses by users generally takes place for a period of a few hours, up to 7 days at a maximum. The data may also be stored if this has been stipulated accordingly by the European or domestic legislator in the regulations, laws or other ordinances of the European Union to which the controller is subject. A blocking or erasure of data also takes place if a retention period which is prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless the continued retention of the personal data is required for entering into or fulfilling a contract.
Transfer to third countries:
Your data is processed on servers outside of the EU (e.g. USA) where no appropriate level of data protection can be guaranteed. For further information on this, please observe the terms of use and data protection information of YOUR PASS, s.r.o., Türkova 2319/5b, 149 00 Prague 4 – Chodov, Czech Republic. These can be found here with the privacy policy.
Withdrawing your consent:
You can object to the mandatory data protection at any time if this relates to your person. Your objection has no retrospective consequences for you. Processing which has already taken place remains unaffected by the objection.
Provision mandatory or required:
The data (anonymous ID) is provided voluntarily. If users prevent access to this, the desired pass cannot be stored.
